I know I posted not long ago about that my uncle would have been 35....well, today is exactly 2 years since hes passed away :(

If you look in my signature, it says October 2nd..but it was ctually only Oct. 1 in Canada (and no, right now I dont feel like explaining)..

I just wish I DIDNT remember the date. I didnt until it hit midnight...then the memories of the news started rolling back into my head.....

Blah :P

Lisa, I am sorry for your loss. I hope that with time, you don't feel the rush of sadness on this date.

Lisa,

It's normal to remember our loved ones and the loss incurred. In time, this day will get easier, but the memories will always be there.

(hugs) I am sorry for your loss, and hope youfind comfort today.

Hello Lisa. I am sorry you have a terrible time on that day. I think that is a normal feeling. I know you probably hate to hear that. I wish I could say something wise and make the hurt go away. I only hope in time you will begin to feel better. Try and think about good times with your uncle.

You are in my thoughts. (((((((((((((()))))))))))))

I think it is totally normal to feel the way you do.

A way you can change this is to make this date a something special day. Call your family members, just to say "I love you". Talk about something funny you remember about him or just tell a joke. Do something he loved to do. A trip to a favorite hangout/ park/ store. Make new happy memories.

Thanks guys. Its not as hard as it was last year but...all I've done all day is think of the things in the last year that he should have been a part of, and all the time that I needed him and nobody else :(

Those days are so hard. I can't give much advice on coping, my bad days are June 15 and July 2. It has been over 30 years since I lost my twin and my Mom and I still have a hard time. I do set aside a time on those days just for thoughts of them. I pull out albums and memories and allow myself to feel sad for a bit. I tell them things that I would want them to know and I tell them how much I miss them. I try to treat it like a short visit and will cry for a while and then I put the albums back on the shelf and tell them I will see them soon. Then I go and do something that they might have liked. Many times I go to the lake and look for a special rock, last year on the 15th I found a rock with another heart shaped one inside it still sits on my bedside table. I know it is silly but I think of that rock as a gift from my brother to comfort me.

Loss is never easy, sometimes the pain dulls a bit with time. Sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't matter whether the person we lost had a hundred years with us or only a single breath it hurts.

I hope you find some comfort and peace. ((((((((Hugs)))))))))

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
