[quote=Anonymous]I'm 58, and I lost my mom last spring after a year-long, painful battle with cancer. My 93 y/o dad is now alone, and although he's surprisingly independent, he still needs (and deserves) a lot of support from my brother and me. I have done my best to work through my profound grief and stress without burdening others. But sometimes I have to "disappear" or change plans because I don't have the time or emotional space to be there, physically or otherwise. Things are getting better as time goes on. My friends have been supportive and understanding, and I am confident that they will still be there for me when I emerge from this sad and strange stage of my life. Hopefully, OP, yours will too.[/quote]
