covid pandemic

[Veteran250]

During the Covid pandemic, I thought I had felt much better than I had in a long time when thinking about my periods of depression and anxiety…… then the pandemic hit…..

Over the period of September/October 2020….. I lost my elder Brother(92) my Stepson(38) my Brother in law(84) and my daughter lost her fiancé……… My family have had more than our share of Covid problems, and it’s only now that I am coming to terms with it, and am able now to sort out my stepsons personal belongings….. I managed to get through it with the help of a friend that I met on the PWB platform, and we have become good friends……. You know who you are?

take care, stay safe.

That is a terrible amount of loss in such a short amount of time. But here you are coming to terms with it, and that is a great accomplishment. There is no set time frame when going through grief and it's different for everyone. It's good to see you are getting through. Sending you peace during this time.

I am so sorry to hear of all your loss and can’t imagine how difficult things must be. I’m glad to hear you have made such a good friend who has helped you through all your terrible suffering. I hope you are as ok as you possibly can be. I still struggle terribly with the loss of my lovely dad who died 5 years ago this month and I’m even getting tearful typing this so I know just how much grief is to cope with and I think you have coped with an awful lot.

I’m thinking of you

Take care X

You were extremely helpful to me concerning my Mother's upcoming cataract surgery and thank you for this. With love and compassion and with the help,of a wonderful friend , I can hope you will be able to move forward despite the huge loss you have suffered.

It takes to come to terms with a loss of such magnitude but with the help of such a kind friend , you will able to gain the strength to come terms with such a loss and to deal with the practical steps of dealing the loss of your nearest and dearest.

Always a kind word and a true gentleman.

There is very little choice but to make the best of our life’s circumstances.

To be kind and understanding which was very much the core basis of PWB
