Welcome

Welcome,
      I welcome you all.  I am sorry that it is under such circumstances that we have to be here, but I am hoping that we can all come together with God and help each other heal.  It is a terrible tragedy to lose anyone in your life, but it seems even worse to lose a child. 
I recently lost my child after a botched gall bladder surgery.  You are welcome to read my story on my page.  I lost Brittainy who was only 18, in July, and it seems almost surreal to me.  If it weren't for the love of Jesus Christ, my family and friends and Brittainy's friends, I am not sure that I would have made it as far as I have. 
I hope that we can all use this group to support each other and to honor our beautiful children that are no longer here in body, but are here in spirit. 
                                                  May God Bless you all, and I will keep you all in my prayers.

Ann,

I know the feelings that you are feeling inside right now.  My daughter will be gone 5 months on the 23rd, and her birthday would have been on the 21st.  It doesn't seem to make sense to thank and praise God for any of this, but I feel that the Bible hasn't steered me wrong yet, and I know that it never will.  God just didn't always make it for us to understand.  I miss Brittainy's smell, smile, laugh, temper, voice, humor, love, gracefulness, and I could go on and on.  I am sure that you can relate.  Last night her best friend spent the night and she had downloaded a video on the computer that she found of Brittainy and her together.  When I watched it, it was almost surreal.

We WILL make it through this, and I feel that we were meant to help each other make it through this tough time.

Peace, mercy and grace be with you

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
