So what did I do? As I cried, I headed over to see if my counselor had any available online appointments. Because I know that this is a fragile time for me, I know I need support. You know what? There is nothing wrong with that. As I write this, I wonder why am I blogging this post?
Besides trying to jump-start blogging again, I share this not for pity but to encourage anyone who is dealing with the loss of their loved one to talk to someone if possible, preferably, a licensed therapist. It took me a few years to finally see one but when I did, it helped me tremendously! For me, finding a Christian therapist was a blessing but your preferences are totally up to you. He has prayed for me and provided sound biblical counsel through the years. While the sessions started out dealing with grief, it has moved into so many different areas of healing for me.
I remember buying two of everything and now I buy only one set. I only celebrate one birthday on September 10th now. What a hard reality to face…I don’t have many words tonight. Just tears and memories.
Here are pictures of the twin’s birthdays from newborn to age 5, together.
