Covid took away so much

Covid took away so much

Covid took several relatives away... One only in 30s. This year and last. I am grieving but tired out from it... Multiple waves of grieving. Like I'm watching a bad dream or horror movie. I could not be with them... It seems unreal. I can't believe it has happened... The ones I thought wouldn't survive actually survived and the ones I thought would not die have died... What a disease is this? Unpredictable... Dangerous... A big punch in the face.

I'm sorry to hear this, @Swansong 😞

Have you heard of Griefline, the grief helpline? I've only just found out about it.

Take care.

Oooooh @Swansong !

So SORRY to hear of your losses. SO fast and close together.

Go gently with your own grief processes.

I hope the forum community can help you through this difficult time.
