[quote=Anonymous]I adored my parents. I was devastated when they died. But I let go of a lot of anxiety after they both were gone, as did my siblings. The grief has dissipated significantly 3 years after my mother died, and the main source of stress (primarily fear of parents’ death, not knowing what the future holds for them, etc) in my life is gone now. I miss them, I love them, and I have no shame that I am glad that I don’t have to worry about them any more. My kids are 13 and 8, and have grown up enough that I enjoy traveling with them. Now that my parents are gone and we don’t visit them every chance we get we are free to choose our travel destinations. That is an enriching and joyful thing in our lives. I would give all that up to bring my parents back happy and healthy, but I can’t so I do what they would have wanted; find happiness and silver linings elsewhere. I feel your pain, and wish you the best for the future.[/quote]
