    Re: Worst Day of MY Life

    Congratulations on everything, especially the job!

    I've always wanted a job at a comic book store, just because it seems like it would be really fun and you'd get to interact with all those different people.

    I hate to be that guy, but, have you guys heard of anything that may have caused this?

      I have a phone call in to the ME handling our case, but I have not heard back. I think not knowing is one of the things that really makes it even harder to deal with. The last time we talked, she said it could be up to 6 months before we had all or any answers. Not knowing is just really hard.

        That must be terrible having to wait man. Hopefully once you know, it will be easier to find peace.

        Also, congrats on the job!

          Hey Guys,

          Been doing pretty good lately. I have been dealing with my anxiety and stress a little better than I was. I am hesitant to say that I have turned a corner, but I would like to think I am doing better.

          The group that I found doesn't meet until next Monday,but I am actually looking forward to it. I have realized that I need help with this and cannot do it alone. Even thought you guys are wonderful I need actually living, breathing people to talk to.

          I have started exercising, I have walked everyday of the New Year!! Now that might not seem great to most people but I have been sidelined with bone spurs in both of my heels that have not allowed me to walk at all. I actually had to quit my job in September because I could not stand on my feet for 10 hours and not be in excruciating pain. So walking a mile a day is something for me to be excited about.

          Now for the really fun news. I got a JOB!! well sort of. One of my best friends owns the local comic book store. His part time guy of 15 years has finally left and he has asked me to fill in 2 days a week. So at least it gets me out of the house and back to some resemblance of a life. Even better than that I get paid in comic books!!! how cool is that.

          So I still miss my Cricket and my soul still aches, but I can feel life coming back and things are not so dark. I feel some Hope again and sometimes even catch myself thinking about tomorrow and not just today. You all deserve a lot of credit and I hope you all realize how much you have helped and meant to our family. Words cannot express how much I appreciate you all.

          Thank you
          This was the best post of the thread!!!

          My heart and soul gleamed when I read this.

          Little victories.

                  Re: Worst Day of MY Life

                  And it all crashes down again today. The ME called, she was very sweet, with the cause of death for my Cricket.

                  The report is (pardon spelling I am a chef not a doctor) Acute Bronchialitis and Acute Broncho Pneumonia. I have no idea what this means, the doctor is going to call later and my family doctor is supposed to call soon.

                  I just don't know what to think or do. It feels like it just happened all over again. Just cant stop crying. But at least its now and not 6 months from now like she had thought earlier.

                  I will be back when I have more info. thanks

                        Re: Worst Day of MY Life

                        Talked in depth with the ME today. She told me that Pneumonia does not always present with classic symptoms. The Doctor ran biopsies on everything, tested for flu, viral and bacterial infections and found nothing that would have been a cause. Apparently pneumonia can come on very quickly and she thinks that even if we had know that there was nothing we could have done. The Doctor thinks Cricket just went to bed and stopped breathing sometime in the night and passed away. She did not suffer or anything as there were no signs of physical trauma beyond the cause of death.

                        So today has been really rough, I tried to do to much and ended up with a big fat 'ol anxiety attack. Calming down now but I received the call in the car and instead of just going home I continued with my day. I should have just stopped turned around and gone home and called it a day, but I went to talk with a friend, and then tried to go to work. Lesson learned.

                        But I am home now and chilling on the couch and trying to relax.

                        Thanks for everything guys I really appreciate you all letting my have this space. It has really meant a lot to the whole family.

                          I'm sorry to hear you had a rough day, but at least now the weight of waiting to find out what happened is lifted. I hope you find strength in knowing that your Cricket is in a much much better place and is watching over you and the rest of your family. Keep your head high bud, we're still praying for yall.

                            Bullit, I know this is hard for you and your family, but at least there is some, if only a little closure.

                            Please feel free to continue to come in here and let us know how things are going for you and your family.

                            As I mentioned earlier, you will go through your cloudy days, your rainy days and your sunny and clear days, but always know you have your OS family that is thinking of you to bend our ears and get your feelings out.
