death

Avatar f tn Since there are 31, I try to read the one that corresponds to the date, I.e. Reading the first one on the first day of the month, the second one on the second day of the month, etc.
Avatar f tn Im not sure about your religious beliefs, but if you're a Christian and read the bible, this may be highly unlikely. I'm truly sorry for your loss I understand the pain quite well, I'm only saying this in love but it does not say in the bible that a person who has passed away meets another who's life has already began. Only that if both people are dead physically.
Avatar m tn I blame Christianity for the atrocities that were committed in the name of "God". I've got no problem with that. It's the same thing. And this goes for well beyond abortion clinic bombings.... But, whenever you do something like this in the name of Allah or Christ, lets quit *****-footing around and call it what it is. Lets not pretend that it is a rare occurrence. Let's not pretend that it doesn't matter. That is PC and its also BS.
529862 tn?1216607670 to long life story to get into, but basically, i've been depressed since 1993, i'm 40 years old, and all my life I've been scared of God. I'ts easy to believe i'm dying and going to hell, but not dying and going to heaven. I run from God, because I feel i'm all the negative stuff that's in the Bible, like " even the devils believe and tremble" heck yeah tremble, who wants to go to hell.
172411 tn?1287086265 t know if it was actually him or something evil but I heard his actual voice in tone and pitch it was him. We gotta stick with God in dealing with this stuff because He's the only one that can allow us to see our loved ones again I cannot stress caution because we don't won't to give evil a vehicle through our loved ones. I know this though we loved each other and if he could speak to me he would.
Avatar f tn Sorry I hit post on accident. It was hard dealing with my grandmothers loss but I pulled thru. The hardest part was seeing my mom in so much pain. I was about 10 weeks when that happened. Then, just a few weeks ago my hubby's good friend passed away from Luekemia. We are still getting thru that. It's been hard but we try to remain positive and this k about the time we did get to spend with them. I'm very sorry for your loss.
Avatar f tn I'm really interested in "Life After Death" experiences, and have read many accounts of people who have gone over to the other side briefly and returned. One of my favorite collections was "Imagine Heaven" by John Burke. Very well-documented case histories of people who were clinically dead briefly, or in a coma, etc., and even while they were unconscious saw things going on around the hospital, or even things going on at their homes.
1356959 tn?1488975948 Hello everyone,I am 26 years old and I was in my first trimester when I had a miscarriage on the 7th Feb 2012.It all started with brown spotting that turned in to real heavy bleeding. My GNYA said that the only thing that could stop the bleeding is to go to theatre and have myself,so that was the end of my pregnancy. My boyfriend was away when this happened and is still away. I am so stressed,I can't eat or sleep and I feel so alone. Please help me deal with this terrible loss.
Avatar f tn I lost my brother in December 2007, he was shot, my phone was in the car the next day I saw 33 missed calls, when I returned the call I was informed that he had been shot. He went through 7 days of pain in hospital after that he passed away. It was the most traumatic moment of my life but I wanted to be strong for him and I never cired at hte time because I didn't want him to think he was it a worst condition.
Avatar f tn First and foremost, stop berating yourself for feeling so miserable – and for the length of time it is taking you to get over it. It’s only in the movies that people recover so quickly. It’s only in the movies that people just get mad, burn their ex’s clothes, and walk away triumphant. In real life, people pine away for long periods of time, but they are too ashamed to admit to most people.
Avatar f tn for the baby and how much will effect him. I usually a very emotional person when dealing with death and I feel like a horrible person for not allowing myself to feel bad. What do I do???
Avatar f tn Allow urself to mourn. The sting of death never goes away. Maybe u can go visit the grave after u have the baby & are back on ur feet. If you believe in the bible a comforting promise from our creator is found at Revelation chapter 21 verse 4: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." I hope that helps & wish you well!
973741 tn?1342342773 Yes I agree it is about free will. Free will is actually the "image of God" that we are given. Adam and Eve had free will from creation. They were not robots, they could make choices and decisions themselves. They were only given one rule/commandment, only one tree's fruit was forbidden. When they broke this commandment it meant knowledge of good and evil and immediate separation from God (spiritual death and physical death).
306455 tn?1288862071 If you believe in the Bible, do you believe in every word and follow every teaching of the Bible? And if there is a Hell ( a very bad place), and at the moment of your death, you have not yet chosen Christianity, are you condemmed to spend eternity in this Hell, with no chance to change your mind? Are the people who never heard of the Bible (tribes in South America/Africa, the Amazons etc), doomed to Hell?
Avatar f tn ve apologized very often back then. In the beginning, when the diorder sideswiped me, I had a hard time not reacting negatively to things. It took practice and a few people telling me that I was out of line. That was a chnge for me not to be in control and steady, easily irritated, or show my irritation raw and bare. Did you get in a bad way when you started taking care of your Mother? Are you also giving total care to your husband, because you mentioned he was terminal.
Avatar m tn How do you deal with all the differing views on risk behavior? For example, this forum has a pretty firm stance about the low/no risk nature of oral sex for hiv transmission. Yet even my own cities Met Health Clinic (SA, TX) councils that getting a blow job is high risk due to potential lesions, etc.
Avatar f tn Just like falling in love takes time so does dealing with a passing of a loved one.Just opposite ways of feeling.Love and loss,two parts of life that both hurt.For loving anyone or anything,such as a pet can lead to pain.All feelings lead to pain and despair,eventually.So do we stop feeling,stop loving,stop caring,no we just learn to adjust to our new lives without that loved one that pet,that friend.whom ever.Death ends a life,not a relationship.
Avatar n tn Hi there Charlotte, I thought I should check in with you and see if you are doing any better now that you are taking amitrypyiline. I sure do hope so!!! I know that dealing with doctors who really don't have the foggiest idea about what pain we are in is so frustrating. I'm contemplating a G.P. change soon. I dread having to start once again with a new doctor. At my age (63 soon) it is getting a little old (no pun intended)! Take good care of yourself. Carol C.
Avatar m tn I agree that counseling could be of great benefit. You could be in a bit of 'shock' from the death. I had this from my mother's untimely and tragic death. I had bursts of reality hitting that were so intensely painful that I reacted physically. I slept very little and did things like copy the entire New Testament of the bible into a note pad. Wrote into a journal every one of the recipes in my sisters vast cook book collection as well.
401554 tn?1270213756 I would not put to much stock into the number 23, remember the numbering of the chapters and verses of the Bible was done by man, not God (I am not saying the Bible isn't inspired because it is, just that the numbering was added to assit in reading and studying). I too have a strong faith in Jesus and have had thoughts of death, but know it is just from my anxiety and depression.
Avatar f tn Many times I needed help from family to take turns taking my mother to her appointments, but everyone was too busy and forgot that although I lived with her, I also had the responsibilities of a job. I was blessed to have a job with the Archdiocese of Chicago where they were compassionate and gave me all the time necessary and hold on to my job. My mother was Christian so reading the bible to her was great joy. I also had to put away her cloth and donate them, which was just awful for me.
Avatar m tn I know that you are having a hard time coping with these things i myself have lost a mom then a daughter abd sis and it will take time to go through the greiving process and it is not an easy thing to do, but in time you will heal i did not have asuppot group as i live in the country and there are no support groups here but they could help you i know i cried for so long but the main thing i think that saved me was my work i had to get up and go to work so if you go to sc hool dont miss it also t
761787 tn?1234305359 im 19 wks pregnant and i have a fetus with a diagnosis of CPC im scared to death because i have to wait 3 wks to go to a specialist...anyone have any hopes or ideas??
Avatar f tn At first it seems like the light at end of the tunnel, is so far and out of reach, but with the right support the tunnel is not so scary. This is what I tell myself everyday. I say, "Rachel, live today like Cooper would want you to!" "Live this day to make all his Angel Buddies proud!!" Your daughter does not want you to be sad, she wants you to LIVE. Keep her alive by sharing her life with others, the more you tell the more will LOVE!!!!!
Avatar f tn I pray, go to church and read the Bible every day and I believe in an afterlife. But ever since this fear has come, a sliver of me keeps thinking "but what if there isnt." Now, I know a lot of you dont believe in God or religion or heaven and I respect that. I'm not trying to get into an argument so please, keep your opinions to yourself. There is no proof that God doesnt exist and guess what? There isnt proof that he does exist either. There's no inbetween.
