[QUOTE="donna723, post: 465294, member: 1883"] I agree with the others. She might be doing this just to avoid the gathering at Nicole's house afterwards if she thinks that Nicole will put her in her place again. It's unbelievable that she would find an excuse to skip her own fathers memorial service but, all things considered, it's probably better that she doesn't go. If she did go, you know that she would just find a away to try to make it all about poor little her and you don't need to be putting up with her nonsense now! What she doesn't seem to realize is that her absence from her fathers memorial service is going to speak volumes to everyone else who is there and it won't look good. What are you going to say to all the people who will be asking you, "Where is Katie?" And I too hope that you will see a doctor about your symptoms. When my mother died, I went through sort of a delayed stress reaction and that may be happening to you too. She was diagnosed with cancer and died a month later. My kids were only 5 and 10 at the time. I held up really well through the whole thing, the hospital, then daily visits to a nursing home 60 miles away, coping with visiting relatives. Then all the details and paperwork of the funeral, insurance, more visiting relatives, etc. I did everything I needed to do and held up like a champ! Then about two weeks later, when the dust had settled, when all the paperwork was done, the relatives gone, and things were getting back to"normal", it hit me! When I finally had time to deal with it, all that stress that I had been under came crashing down on me and I ended up in the ER with chest pains, unable to breathe, thinking I was having a heart attack. It turned out to be a panic attack, a delayed reaction to all I had been dealing with. Not saying that's what your symptoms are and you do need to see a doctor, but stress can definitely cause all kinds of alarming physical symptoms. [/QUOTE]
