Saturday In House Gists - Dealing With The Pain When Loved Ones Become Angels

 This post is about losing the ones we love and dealing with the pain and then believing that they have become Angels and watching over us....

Have you ever lost family or friends to death? How did you cope? Have you found closure or still trying to cope?

Lets gist!

  1. It's not easy at all, being the 1st and the head, sometimes I break down crying and wishing that things were different when my siblings are either demanding or complaining of a particular need bothering them and I can't meet their demand..
    I don't think I have a closure yet coz I still think about my parents tbh and I think/wish that things would've been different if they were still alive

    I lost my dad at age 12 and my mum one month after I clocked 18 year old, I'm still believing God for a turn around

    1. Stella no pain in this world hurts more than this stuff

      Sometimes I will be walking on the road and stop and start crying

      I will want to eat tears

      I don't even have sexual urge again

      The world feels strange

      Sometimes I cannot breathe well

      If not that I need daily bread, I will not even be going out or talking to people

      It's been 2yrs and my wound is still fresh

      Ahnn God; it hurts. My Daddy 😢

      I don't know how to cope with this thing or manage it

      Sometimes I lie to myself he is still alive and travelled so I can be a little bit stronger.

      I drink like my life depends on it

      If I see igbo I will take too

    2. 14:52, would your dad be happy to see you drinking so much and wishing for Igbo to smoke if he was alive? Obviously no.
      So pls, stop , make him happy in the great beyond and live your life well. Make him proud by dusting yourself up, go out there and leave a great legacy to honour him. Life is for the living. Live life and live it well.
      My he keep resting.

    1. Losing a Love One is a very painful experience that takes time to heal. I Lost my Mum when I was 10 years, it came like a shock to me, and couldn't cry or mourn her. I was angry with her for leaving me, I mean I felt she did not think of me that why she allows herself to die. I Don't Know if you understand what I mean... I later let go when I turn 30 years and was in trouble and then realise how much I miss and needed her, so I cried my heart out for almost a year before I could let go.

      I still miss her but now I pray for her to rest.

    1. My twin bro at 7years.
      Haven't found closure even after having Baby LO and Baby Behold, everyone believes God brought him back as Baby LO but there's still a vacuum on the inside of me.

      Besides, due to the circumstances surrounding his exit I don't watch horror films and may never.

      Sigh!

  5. I lost my son last year June. He was sick before he died. Spend so much trying to save him but he didn't survive the sickness. I cry every time. It hurt so deeply when I remember I will never see him ever again. I have become so emotional that anytime I hear a child cry the pain comes back. Any sad news, people crying affects me so much. The pain is unbearable and I have not gotten over it. I am learning to leave with it. It is difficult getting over the death of our loved ones. But my consolation is that he is an angel and he is watching us/the people he left behind.

  7. Honestly it is not easy for me,I miss my mum everyday.
    I lost my dad at a very young age and my mum died when I needed her the most.
    Being an only child makes it tough for me, no one to confide in, in my low moments.
    It's been 5 years and I'm still hurting........

  12. Loosing someone is a pain that words cannot explain.

    I lost a dear friend in December and the hurt is yet to go away, as she was so dear to me.

    A friend of mine lost her little sister few days and she is currently on admission as she find it difficult to deal with it.

    May God keep untimely death far from us(amen) the pain is beyond words

    1. I lost my sis 4yrs ago and lost my father last year. I became dumb. I had to go for rehab. I couldn't sleep without drugs. I was placed on setraline and other drugs. No be small thing. But I thank God because He has done for me what no man can do for me

    2. Sorry about your loss
      Losing a good friend is a loss most people don’t understand and that can make it feel worse...when people think at least she’s not your family

  13. My mom became an angel last year. The sound of the beep from the machine and the final long beep as she flat-lined is deeply etched in my memory. I am still traumatized by beeping sounds. A song (you are Yahweh) by Steve crown was playing as she flat-lined, God! I developed instant hatred for that song. Was in a taxi recently and the song came on, I froze and asked the driver to turn it off, he complied, he asked if I don't like it, i tried to answer but no words came, damn! I still remember that long beep of the machine, how I screamed. Anticipatory grief doesn't work o, coz I was preparing my mind, but when death struck, I hated the very thing called life.

    1. You can't prepare for death of a loved one. This thing called death is unexplainable.

      I lost my dad 2011, I still cry at least once every month. He died in pain and suffering. Didn't get to meet any of our spouses or his grandkids. He didn't even enjoy anything from us after so much toiling and hustling to make us who we are today.
      He is our guardian angel now. I called out to him on my delivery bed to come save me from death that stared me in the face. I later had a successful emergency CS. When witches came to press me in the hospital ward with my CS pains, I still whispered to him.

      Later saw him in my dreams, days later, telling me that nothing will happen to me, that he is with me.
      Rest on papa.

  14. I felt so moved reading the comments. I pray that time eases your pain. I can’t even begin to imagine losing any of my siblings as I would happily give my life for any of them. May our loved ones always be by our side and in our hearts.

  16. I lost a very good friend last two years and it hasn't been easy for me because she is like a sister to me, her pictures are still on my phone but anytime I want to delete it, I won't. I know she is in a better place because she was an angel when she was on earth. Nike continue to rest in peace till we see again

  17. I think I may hv shared this before.
    Greatest fear in life? Should be things like being a failure, missing heaven etc but mine is the lost of a dearly loved one. By God's grace, the closest I hv lost are distant uncles and my grandparents. I look at pple who have lost parents or siblings at a young age as superhumans bcoz I mean how did you cope??
    I look around me at my loved ones and...hmmm, the fact that death is a debt everyone must pay is one scary truth I dnt like to think about. On the flip side what if I that is overthinking things then leave this world b4 them leaving them with all the hurt. Lord have mercy😔😔😔

  18. The text message my younger brother sent to me to announce the death of our dad still rings in my head. This year will make it the second year. Part of me was happy he went to rest. The suffering was too much and it hurt to see a once vibrant man turned to vegetables. So sad.

  20. This post is triggering🥺
    I lost my dad 7yrs ago. It still feels like yesterday, but I try to move. Only for my new neighbor to move in, with their 10yr old daughter. The girl and her father are like 5 and 6. Every time I see them together, I get so teary and emotional cos I was a daddy's girl😥. I misssss my dad soooo much. And I'm still angry with him cos how do you just sleep and die?? Did he not think of us? Of me? If you had small headache, couldn't you have said something? Just ate banga soup and went to sleep... Sleeping for 7yrs now! My mum hates banga soup so much now. I'm so angry with my daddy😥
    I really can't forgive my dad🥺

    Sigh. I don't like this post abeg😭😭

  23. It’s been so hard,many times I enter my dads room and it just dawns on me again that he is no more,I look at his pictures and realize I’m never going to see him again.
    This life is so short and unpredictable, each time I remember him I beat myself up cos I saw it coming,I dreamt of it but never knew it will be him.Someone that wasn’t sick,Infact he was even going to the hospital daily for a few days to see my elder sisters father in law that was on admission.He kept him company and came back home in the evenings. Few days later he drops dead in the church!😭😭😭
    Why didn’t God stop it,why didn’t God prevent it? Someone that was cleaning the house if a God,I have soo many questions but no answer.
    My sister built him a house as a New Years gift, it was meant to be a suprise,but he never lived to enter the house, instead he was buried there! Ah my mum misses him everyday, the house is not the same,I have not healed,I don’t even know if I can ever heal,cos I keep blaming myself, he told me he was coming he needed to rush down to the church, and he never came back!
    Hmmmm Life!!!! Life!! Life!!!😭

  24. Sigh....
    This brings back memories.
    He called me that he will be operated upon the next day, he went in and NEVER came back.
    I remembered listening to D'banji's song 'd'banji o, d'banji abia na' when the call came through that he has passed on, oooh dear!
    Since then till date, I can't ever listen to that track, if it's playing on radio especially on throwback Thursdays,I just freeze and switch it off.
    Keep sleeping angel Chibueze, i am consoled that you are an angel now.

  25. My dad, the most handsome man I've ever seen. I miss him every single day of my life, tho it's been 7 years since his demise. I just finished crying before opening this post. They say time heals all wounds but this one wound can never be healed with time.

    When he died, I felt like I didn't exist, I became very empty, I became a shadow of myself. His death isn't something I want to remember in details because it's too painful. There's no heartbreak as painful as a parent's death. Just as BB said, there's this phyno's song that I hate so much
    now because of his death. RIP my Father my hero, your legacy liveson. My Son's will be named after you, my businesses will be named after you. My mum still misses you.

  26. I don't think anyone can totally get over the loss of a loved one.
    I lost my mum to COVID-19 in August 2020, I'm still here thinking of her everyday.
    I must sha have a reason to miss her everyday.
    She was a very gentle and lovely woman.
    Being an only child, orphan is not an easy thing.
    I don't wish it for anybody

  27. I just lost my dad. Funeral plans happening . It's been a roller coaster for me. Oh my God. I am driving and crying. I just park by the side and let it all out. My dad was everything to me. I am where I am today because of him. I don't live in Nigeria. I decided I won't be going for the funeral. I have closure . I don't want to go through the emotional stress of seeing him buried. Facing backlash from family but I am putting my emotional and mental well-being first. It's hard Kai. Death where is your sting? You have been defeated. God help me. Please remember me in your prayers. It's a nightmare

  28. Haaa Stella, you want to open old wounds? I lost my dad 6 yrs ago. Goodness me! Didn't know the pain of losing a loved one was that terrible. I used to cry myself to sleep every night for like two months.

    Six years after, I am in a better place but I still cry one in a while. To those passing through what I passed through 6yrs ago, be rest assured you will overcome. The best gift that God gave to man in trying times like this is TIME.

  30. My dear little brother, the last born of the family passed in 2018, I still haven't gotten over it. It still feels like a bad dream. I panic everytime we are in the month of October, cos that was the month he passed. He left home to hang out with friends and he never came back. I'm still unable to find closure, but I pray for him every day, for God to grant him rest. He brought so much joy to the family. I havent shed a tear since it happened. God knows best. May we again never experience any untimely death for us and any family members. Amen

  32. This brings a painful memory of my immediate elder brother . We lost him in November 2022, it’s so painful after suffering ill health . Sometimes I look at his pic and I’m like so I won’t hear his voice again , kaii e de pain o. Oh we prayed! Did everything humanly and spiritually possible. At a point I started questioning my faith. My parents have been inconsolable 😭 It is well, may the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace .

    It felt like I didn't do enough
    I felt helpless, hopeless even
    Cos we had plans
    It doesn't get easier
    Some days are okay
    Somedays I don't want to live

  34. I lost my immediate senior brother, he died in his sleep on 24/12/2014. And I was to celebrate my last son 1year birthday on the 26th. My world just collasp because he played a part of a sister and a brother. We were too close. We are just 3 and I am the only girl and the last born. I became the shadow of myself. Will I ever get closure?

  36. I lost my parents within 6 months of each other last year.They were both still alive this time last year.The pain is deeply excruciating . I had not adjusted to life without mum when my beloved dad died 6 months after his wife .I don’t think i can get over it. He should have at least stay a bit longer,not follow each other,leaving me so hurt and broken.

    I am trying to get by but it is so difficult. I remember them every second.
    I know they are both watching over me.
    I miss them beyond verbal description.
    Love you Dad and mum,my guardian angels.

    Keep resting in peace Bolaji❤️

  40. I lost my mum to cancer in Feb 2020 and I will never get over it. Visited her graveside on the anniversary last week and I was just overwhelmed with sadness. She was a fighter. I was depressed for so long after her death and the wound is still fresh. My dad is almost 90 and he's my best friend. I pray God keeps him because I can't even bear the thought of losing him.
