Over the past year and a half so many people I love and were close to died, my grandfather, my cousin, my bf's grandmother, my fh's aunt and now my fh gf is gone too. On top of it all, my mother's best friend / my bf's aunt just found out she has cancer and only a month left to live. I am helping my mother and her friend with arrangements for the funeral. I don't know how much more I can take. I feel so sad and helpless. I really don't know what to say to any of these people. I'm worried for my fgmil because she's alone. I know FH will want to be there and with her more and I understand that but I wonder what will happen come August when we're married. I don't want to be selfish with him or his time. I have a thousand thing going in my head at once. I offer to maybe postpone the wedding. He does want that. It's all really new. I'm sorry I am all over the place. I keep getting so close to tears all the time. I feel drained and useless. I just wish that there wasn't so many tragic events occuring.

Re: NWR: VENT STRESSED
I am sooo sorry to hear about ALLLL of this especially whenit is all going on and coinciding with what is supposed to be the most amazing time of your life. Dont worry about your FHs time that will work itself out and his GM will get more independent as time goes on(mine did). Its all so new now, take heart in using this time with her to bond and keep her busy by involving her in stuff, it will help to keep he mind off of it. It is really hard when people pass away , especially on the in law side, you feel terrible for your FH. As long as you are just there for him to hold his hand and hug if he needs one you are doing your job. Dont feel useless, your prescence by his side speaks volumes to him. As for your mom's friend that is something no one should have to go through, it is awful and sad , but try to stay positive around her, she needs to be hopeful and have good energy surrounding her, miracles do happen. Use your wedding planning as an escape from the sadness and think of this way...your wedding will be a very welcome joyful occasion in the midst of all of this. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family! Feel free to vent to us anytime!!!!

Re: NWR: VENT STRESSED
That's a lot of grief and loss to handle in such a short period of time. And I hear you about not knowing what to say when things like that happen. I'm sorry you're so overwhelmed, and I'm so sorry for all the loss you and your family is experiencing. Prayers for everyone passed, and for everyone making their way through today without them, I hope you all find peace. You'll make it through this.
