Anniversary reaction

I’m having a hard day today: hurting, tired and blah. No apparent reason. Neither the weather nor my recent activities explain it. Then it dawned on me that this week is the anniversary of breaking both shoulders. The first six years ago and the second three years and one day later. Has anybody else experienced anniversary reactions? Any wisdom on how to deal with them? #ChronicPain #fractures #AnniversaryReaction

It's Coming: Letter to The One Who Left #AnniversaryReaction

It's coming... the two year anniversary. Two years ago you decided you didn't want to live anymore... My son asked where you were after he saw a picture of the two of you together... You loved him so much... and it breaks my heart that you don't get to know him now. He's four now, and he's so smart. He knows that asking about you makes me sad... He also knows who you are. I will never let him forget you... I don't want anyone to ever forget you.
We never got as close as I thought we'd become... as my best friends little sister, you were someone who was always there. Starting drama at every turn, and always the light in the room. You made mistakes... but none of those matter... Everyone makes mistakes... I just wish you wouldn't have let those mistakes decide your fate... You are so loved... Loved more than you ever knew... I just hope your happy now... I hope your family heals and loves... I hope your little brother never forgets his sister... I hope one year, this day will go by and it won't feel like a brick in my stomach... and at the same time... I don't... Because I know... I know my heart, and the hearts of everyone who loved you, who loves you, will forever be scarred.
