It's a season in Hell. That psychic tug-of-war must be unbearable, except somehow you're forced to bear it anyway. Lean on us. ~LA

I know it's cold comfort, but now you can put a name to your feelings. Like LA said, lean on us. We're here.

Here's my shoulder to add to the group...to lean on. We'll hold you up, Steph. You poor kid...it's so sad what has happened, and yet you don't even know WHAT has happened. It's not fair.

Here's another shoulder to lean on. Wish I could do more.

"People who experience loss need time and our patience. And clearly, those with an ambiguous loss such as no body or verification of death need even more time and patience. The least we can do is give them our attention and listen to them, for in the telling and retelling of the story of their incomprehensible loss, healing will begin.� That is SO important. People can get rather testy when someone who is dealing with ambiguous loss is telling their story AGAIN, and just want you (the collective 'you') to just get over it. Whatever you need to do, do it--whether it's a therapy group, ranting via blog, going to various newspapers & TV stations with your story, whatever. Also, please don't neglect your physical self!

Among the crowd of people who have suffered a grief like yours, you also find there is a name and a description for it. Adding another shoulder to the group Stephanie, and a dry handkerchief if you need one. Hugs

And another shoulder too. I'm sorry for your family's loss and the not knowing.

Take care of yourself Stephanie, dear. Another shoulder and my love and prayers.

Me, too. There's nothing else I can say...
