6.29.2026 First Day Back to work

My son stayed over, making sure I’m okay he was worried about me. I woke up in the middle of the night and was reading Diary around 2 am on Reddit, everyone’s passages from heartbreak, to grief, loneliness, people’s thoughts then came upon this mom who lost her son, it reminded me of my son i lost who would’ve been 14 this year.

I felt her pain, I wanted to comment or reach out because I went through it. Losing your child is one of the most painful feelings in the world. I’m not even sure if the comment went through.

This morning my son was crying and angry at me for not having a sibling. I started to get upset because he had a brother but I didn’t tell him about his brother. He was so annoying about it but I had to shut myself off because my energy was already drained. He cried over and over again, imagine an 8 year old who would just keep crying over and over how he doesn’t have a sibling and blames me for not having one.

I wish I can tell him more about it but I know I shouldn’t.

His mom always blames me for our loss, when it was all on her own having a drunken binge during her pregnancy and lose our first child.

I got depressed even more.

Not only I lost the love of my life recently, now I have flashbacks losing my first son. How would he be like with Jules? Would they be best friends? Would he be a good big brother to him? His friends, what would they be like? Would he be best friends with my friends kids? I was the last one during that time with my group of friends that didn’t have a child and I was excited to join them becoming a dad.

It hurts thinking about it.

Maybe that’s why I’m the way I am. Before losing him, I was happy go lucky. You can throw anything at me and lll be glad to pick it up. But after that time, I became more and more secluded from the world.

It wasn’t until recently I became that again. Atleast for 8 months I was happy.

Today I’m back to work, everyone’s asking why I look sad and if I’m okay in the office this morning. They said I look cold and like someone died.

Everyone’s also so concerned about my weight loss, I just had cancer dammit. Well that’s what I wanted to say but I didn’t.

I weighed myself and dropped 2 more pounds even though my diet has been the same. I’ll most likely be dead before the year ends. Idk what else is wrong with me. I have an appointment next few days.

I went to see Caleb and played with him earlier, he’s autistic and only listens to me. His parents trust me with him, they asked about my weight loss and how I’m doing. They also noticed I’m depressed, weaker, and should just take my time recovering.

When I saw him, it reminded me of her. How she would watch me play and teach him. It hurts a lot.

I visited some clients and noticed the same thing. And told me to take more time off, but I didn’t want to. I thought it would keep my mind off but it’s not.

I can’t concentrate on anything at all. I live in one of the busiest states, where pressure and time is viable. I couldn’t take pressure at all, I didn’t know how to today. So many deadlines, I used to be able to do this in just seconds. I can’t focus, all I feel is emptiness. Maybe life is gonna be lonely, my soulmate is not here anymore.

Then the thought of Kaila on this hot day, are you tanning in the yard? Are you vaping in your sun room? Or passing out in your couch? Watching Harry? Are you in pain?

I was thinking a lot about her.

Is it too much to ask for someone to stick around? To talk to, to listen, to hold and be with? Take care of that person?

It feels cold and heartless, I’m starting to feel this way towards everyone. I’m just gonna be a mean asshole for the rest of my life, no one deserves my kindness.

I’m not a person to use people, or just hop around. When my heart is given to you, don’t crush it. I’ve been hurt so many times. I’m very loyal I wouldn’t dare fuck anyone over.

I feel so lost right now.

(*edit: I just saw my insights, I’m actually getting shares on this thing? It’s just my random thoughts. Where the heck are they going?)

I’ve also been getting harassed these last few days. But I’m going to consider going to see this person so that it stops. I really dgaf what happens to me at this point. I’m a little nervous but I’m going anyway tomorrow.

Stage 1E Lymphoma

Has anyone else done a 5x4 radiation therapy? I finished mine weeks and weeks ago, just wondering if yours ever came back after a certain amount of time or still in remission.

Post NDE Question for those who experienced it

Has anyone else question themselves like what am I doing back here after a NDE?

Everyday I feel like I want to go back, looking for purpose but I don't feel it. I had this much peaceful and happier feeling during that time I experienced my NDE.

There are days I feel like I'm just back to say my final goodbyes. Does anyone know who came back just to leave again shortly? That's how I've been feeling these last few days.

I just have this feeling that I'm supposed to just spend time with my son before I go again permanently this time.

6.17 Périgueux, France and Test Update, Thinking of Kaila

Had a nightmare this last night, the dream was me and Kaila were on vacation and we were waiting in line to check in our hotel, I asked you to wait by the couches and sit while I get our room. I turn around and you ran off, I called and called your phone and when you finally picked up a guy was whispering in the background. You said come to me then, I ran and followed your voice and when I was getting closer then I woke up. That hurt. Alot. I haven't slept bc of these nightmares.

I spoke to my doctor virtually before I went to bed because of the time difference between Europe and New Jersey, I have to come in next week for vitals I need to come in to find out why I'm losing so much weight and another scan next week to see if I'm clear. Went to the Riviera after Greece, water was great took my mind off shit the last few days. I got to Perigueux, France this morning, I spent the last few days just touring the cities around Europe and trying to take my mind off things. I’m down to 163 pounds and that’s nearly 30 pounds I lost since end of February. No matter what I do I’m still losing weight. For years as far as I can remember I took care of myself and I see myself in the mirror with more wrinkles from lack of sleep and stress.

My goal for the last 5 years was to pinch every penny and invest so I can retire early no matter the cost and how much I work. I lost some of it because of the hospital bills this year. But still managed to keep a good amount but I'm not happy at all. I felt empty, lonely, and why bother doing all this. All this hard work and saving, I worked even harder last year so I can have a decent future with you. So we can travel or just attend to you by your side in case you can't work anymore.

I’m aging faster than ever not sure if it’s because of the meds and the radiation treatment or lack of sleep and I am too embarrassed to even take pictures. Do you know how it feels like to lose so much weight? From a good healthy weight to skin and bones? Family here said I look healthy but when I weigh myself, it’s too much weight loss. The feeling of your ribs protruding out. I felt a little embarrassed because I don’t feel like I’m me. Also a big part of me feels like it is missing. I don’t even want to be tagged on anything.

Jules last day of school is next week and can’t wait to see him when he sees me outside the school. I’m supposed to be here taking my mind off her and other things, but I can’t. It all hurts. I just want the honest truth and let my heart heal. Spending a few more days here and go back home.

6.16.26 Out here thinking of Kaila can’t really enjoy this trip

So it was the same, had “some” fun at the beach but didn’t really feel right. Matter of fact I had this gut wrenching feeling, some kind of intuition feeling all day. Have you ever had that? I still do think about her and my heart is still there for her.

I took a walk this morning and this same lady kept asking if I was okay. She asked me the same question like 4 times. I said yes, but I honestly didn’t feel good. I was more sad than anything. It was tough to understand her with the Greek or Croatian accent here.

Watched the sun go down by the bay here and I wanted to just be on my own. Everyone went to the bar and I couldn’t really drink because of my meds. I want to so bad, my cousins were asking if I was okay, I said yes. But it was the same feeling all day. It’s almost 930 pm here and I miss that happy me feeling. I miss Kaila, can’t stop thinking about her.

My son called me earlier to check on me and how my trip was. Told me to brighten up because I’ve been sad for so long. Him and his mom told me that if I love her to just contact her or come home and see her. It’s not that easy. They won’t understand, as much as I love her I want her to be happy and be better. I do want to take care of her, I’ve never loved anyone like this before nor no one’s made me happy as much as she did. She’s sick and there’s nothing I can do about it. She doesn’t want me there to take care of her, I’ve always wanted to take care of her that’s how much I love her.

I’m also still thinking about the lady who passed away who was commenting on my stuff here sadly. She seemed nice, I called the company that she gave me weeks ago when some a******s were commenting about the post I did (long story short she was defending me because she has the same health condition as my ex) and made a call. I guess she’s really gone. Hoping the donation I gave will help someone out there who needs help through some of these non profit organizations. It’s a terrible illness. She sent me a DM before she died sitting on my inbox, really weird. Maybe I’ll just leave it there unopened, it’s been there since last week.

Tomorrow we’re flying out to France for a few days then come home. Hopefully I’ll be much better tomorrow. Ciao for now.

6.13.26 NL to Greece

Ended up flying to Greece this morning with my cousins, it wasnt too bad. Woke up and decided fuck it, let’s go. It’s like a direct flight from NY to Arkansas about 3 hours. As soon as we got off, we hit our hotel and then a few places. My cousins have been here before and thought it was beautiful. It’s late pm here right now.

I don’t how how I’m doing this, my chest has been really exhausted and tired but enough energy to keep going. It was nice to get my head clear for a while, away from home and all the nonsense and missing her. I’d put more photos but my self esteem has been at an all time low. Last time I showed my face was when I was with her, now I can’t even show my face at all. I feel some shame or feeling like shit.

My cousins smoke a lot of cigarette and I haven’t done any since my radiation. I’m so tempted to since it helped reduce my anxiety. Honestly, if I die here it’d be nice, it’s paradise here. Well, until tomorrow I’ll update y’all, we’re off to France in a few days. Until then. Wish you were here.

6.10.26 having a rough time sleeping and thinking about K

My intuitions are telling me so much that I should just move on and never loved you. I kept dreaming of her and it was painful, I miss her and think of her everyday. I put all our photos in the hidden files and just didn’t want to see her.

My heart aches and havent slept for weeks. I’m in so much emotional pain. I slept 30 minutes last night and my heart kept racing and raving, I would wake up every 15 minutes after that. I didn’t sleep at all but yet I was able to walk when sun came up.

I just want to cry but I can’t, I’ve ran out of tears. Took my Jules to school earlier and he didn’t like me like this. He said I haven’t been happy for months. I’m in deep and I mean deep depression. It makes me sick to my stomach.

I took my blood work earlier for my screening and hope that I’m free from cancer then check again 6 months. I’m getting exhausted and tired of life, I’m unhappy and lonely. I’m trying my best to focus but I can’t.

I took a walk at the park again earlier, this old lady came up to me and spoke to me about pain and sadness. She said she could tell I’m broken, and I started to cry and she just gave me the biggest hug. Can’t help but to miss Kaila. I don’t know why.

6.8.26 it’s been up and down thinking of K and my life

I have been trying to recover but it’s so hard to. I’m taking so many meds for post cancer treatment and it sucks. I wonder how you’re doing, did you make it to the clinic to get checked? Are you ever going to recover? Did you meet someone else because you couldn’t say I love you back? You’re beautiful, you can’t deny that. You are my dream person in every way, maybe I wasn’t. I think of you everyday and I haven’t stopped.

If you did, I hope you’re happy and this person is taking good care of you. But I made a promise that I’ll wait for you. Stem cell bill was so high too because someone made the decision for me while I wasn’t all in there during my time at the hospital.

I look at my journals and still trying to understand. I knew you were getting weaker and weaker and I was planning on moving my life for you. That’s how much I loved you.

Today, was hard, it was up and down. My emotions are everywhere. Why did I deserve to come back to life? Why didn’t cancer just become stage 4 instead of 1E? I’m depressed and tired. You have no idea what this did to me. All want to hear that voice and see that face that I miss so much. I feel sick to my stomach having thoughts about her I know my intuitions are right and it doesn’t feel good.

I saw my sons race, I was so proud of him. But I felt empty inside. Broken and lost, I know my purpose but there’s a spot that’s empty. I know what’s right and wrong but leaving me empty handed.

I haven’t slept at all because of all these things. Nightmares and depression, I sleep an hour a night and I can’t seem to stay asleep. I just want my happiness back.

Post Treatment Depression

Is anyone else going through post treatment depression? How come it’s so hard to get through this? I was never like this, unless my personal life amplified this feeling after treatment? If depression is there, will it affect my recovery? I know the mind and body has to be in sync. It’s so hard, I’ve been crying for weeks everyday.

6.7.26 having trouble focusing on everything and not thinking of K

This morning was tough, it was hard to get up and just wanted to stay in bed. It’s also cooler this morning. I took a walk to get fresh air and saw 2 cardinals and a blue jay.

I'm trying my best to keep my composure and focus. I think about her every second with whatever I'm doing. I spent the last year with her 24/7 and it's so hard not having you in my life.

I know you're sick and don't want anyone to take care of you but I do. I've always loved you, you didn't have to let me go because of that. I made a promise to you and I never break my promises. It makes me sick to my stomach everyday that I can't do anything for you. I care for you more than me.

My health recovery has been hard because I'm so stressed and I hate this daily feeling of missing you Kaila. You were my world.

It's so hard not to smoke lately from the anxiety and stress. I can't smoke until I get another test for cancer and this is so fucking hard. It's probably the most mental hardship I've ever experienced.

I found the perfect one and she's gone. My soulmate and my love.

Today was hot and windy, I wanted to drive to the beach and get my mind off but I can't even stand long.I've lost so much weight and lost 2 more pounds over the weekend. I'm not used to being so skinny, I work hard with everything I do and I feel like I'm just lonely and tired.

I'm still contemplating of selling my company because my emotions aren't all in there. With only few weeks until I'm supposed to come back. My employees check on me everyday but I don't even want to hear it from anyone. I'm neglecting my life and career.

Missing you

6.5.26 these medications I can’t it anymore and still thinking of K@1**

I’m losing so much more hair! The doctors said after my cancer treatment it should be fine. I’m not sure if it’s stress. It’s hot as fuck too outside!

I’m supposed to go to Manhattan later to watch the game with friends. I can’t do it, I feel so depressed and embarrassed. I picked up my son, he was sad again, I’m tired of these bullies picking on him. He’s different, he has ADHD and other disorders. I feel really sorry for him and I’ve tried my best to be there for him as his dad but he doesn’t like talking to me. I tried talking calm to him like a friend but it didn’t work.

I saw one of my old college friends when I picked him up and told me how much weight I lost. I feel embarrassed and depressed about it. I pretty much just shrugged it off. My ribs are showing when I take my shirt off, it just doesn’t feel right.

I feel alone, embarrassed, depressed, and lonely. I have a few more weeks to pull myself together. I’m still reading my journals about what happened earlier last year and losing my text messages just fucks my head up. Another night and day thinking about her and how she’s doing and if Kaila will ever find answers. She’s the only woman that felt right my whole life and who I want to share and take care of for the rest of my life.

I keep looking at our pictures of how happy my life was before she disappeared. I deleted my socials so I won’t be tempted to look at her picture. She’s meant so much to me and she doesn’t even know it. I wonder if she went to Minnesota and found answers too or when she’s going.

I’m hoping I get answers myself. I just want a voice….her voice to hear. I’m not me lately and it hurts so much. I’m going to the game later on tonight and take my mind off things if I have the courage to even go out. Recovery is so hard when you can't stop tuning about her.

Losing so much weight

I went from 192 to this. I’m getting way too skinny and I feel so much more weaker, I’m told I should be going back to normal but it does seem like it.

I’m crying inside because I’m doing all this on my own.

6.4.2026

It was harder to get up this morning, I don’t feel motivated to take my meds. I haven’t eaten much for days. I took a walk, hoping that it’ll make me feel better. Her presence inside my head always lingers, wondering how she’s doing. My heart wants to take care of her because she’s not well.

During the walk I saw a family of ducks, some ducklings were half way to adulthood and some beautiful blackbirds.

I was in so much pain after, this time another part of my body. It was sharp, I’m not sure if it’s because I’m not eating or drinking water enough. I was also thinking about my son, he’s been talking about self harm and I’m not sure why.

That’s all for today, all self reflection and trying to heal everything.

I wish you were here to keep my head straight.

I'm here losing weight either from my maintenance medication after battling cancer or depression. I miss talking to her everyday and being able to feel happy for once with someone. I hope she's okay and finds the cure for herself too (she's also sick)

I'm forcing myself everyday to eat. But my appetite is gone. It sucks that I'm not able to keep it in. Sometimes I don't even want to take these meds and just give up.

She made my life complete, now that feeling is gone.

6.2.26 Losing so much weight

My doctor said I'm supposed to gain some weight again. But I keep losing weight, my appetite is gone, all I worry about is Kaila and it's killing me inside. I still love her even though she doesn't want to talk to me. All I think about is if she's okay, if she's in pain or need anything at all. I'm supposed to be recovering but my anxiety knowing she's in pain kills me inside. I really don't want the cancer to return, I did a test to see if I do have it but it's inconclusive and have to wait for another month.

My ribs are showing a bit, I feel so embarrassed. My arms used to fill my sleeve and now I'm skinny again. My hair keeps falling and it's supposed to be coming back a little bit. Now I'm not sure about that, I wanted to just shave it all off but I wanted to keep what I have.

Why couldn't I just stay dead during that time. Everything is eating me inside. Physically and mentally. If I can just know how she's doing I'll be okay mentally. I walked my son to school this morning, he was really looking sad at me and telling me that even though he doesn't like staying with me he still loves me and doesn't want me to die.

I'm still trying my best to recover and also have been trying to see specialists. I used to write on my journal alot before I slept. I can't remember some things because of what happened to me earlier this year. I'm trying to find old messages from my phone but it got erased. I tried my best to look for solutions but it hasn't worked at all. All I have is my journal but I want to see messages for myself that I got from her.

My son loves but hates me, I raised him on my own since birth until he was 3 but now stays with his mom. He loves her more than me but I tried the last few days to have a good relationship with him. For weeks he's been bullied, I tried to talk to him. Before school I just wanted to see for myself what was going on. Some kids tried to take his ball, so I yelled at the kid to give it back. Of course I waited for my son to see if he can defend himself but he was too nice to them. He doesn't feel like he belongs to that school or community.

I walked after I dropped him off and tried my best not to look at anything. I've been looking more on reddit about depression and anxiety, how people cope with this. I tried all the exercises but I keep failing. I'm hope to get over this soon.
