When my Mom got sick I bought the house that she raised us in (where my Dad ended his life) because it was breaking her heart to sell it. Probably not good self care on my part...but..I did it. First thing we did was convert the garage to a pool room as I couldn't stand to go out there.
Five weeks ago, I was sleeping and flashing red lights woke me up..OMG!! I jumped out of bed and it was like I went back in time!! I walked down the same hall I walked down when it happened and totally expected my Mom to be sitting on the front porch crying with the neighbor...In my head I could see the paramedics rolling out a stretcher with a sheet draped over it...It was like I was 8 again...
Turned out my neighbor across the street had caught his chimney on fire.
Since that happened I have slept with a light on in the bedroom when my husband isn't home. I don't know what to think..this has just totally bothered (mild word) me since it happened and I don't know what to do with it....

Do you have a Therapist?
Anyway, what a awful thing to have to live and deal with. I'm so sorry.
If there's anything I could say or do... I definitely would do for you.
