[QUOTE="Star*, post: 346154, member: 4964"] Robin, I'm really without words for the loss of your Mom. I am very sorry for the loss you feel. I do know that most major hospitals have grief counseling sessions held at their facilities. While you are asking for an on line support group? Two thoughts come to mind. First is - Remaining anonymous and crying in front of your computer while good for a while isn't good forever. Two? It took me a lot of time to 'get used to' the gals here and be comfortable with telling my story to anyone so an on line support (while a great step in the right direction) leaves you looking longer for what I would think you'd need sooner. Make sense? Then again? Maybe you don't need to be in a room full of other people who are depressed about grief - but then again? If you don't go you'll never know. You just may find there are more supportive people there than needy. Lord knows if I could have reached out in a group like this? I don't think any of us would have ever GONE home. (The brownie and margarita party would STILL be wide open) Hugs & Love Star [/QUOTE]
