Heavy Hearted Thanksgiving

I sit here trying so hard to remember that I have so much to be thankful. For on this Thanksgiving Day! I have six children still with me on this earth! I have many friends and family that love me! I have a home and food! But All I can think is I don't have her! When I lost my husband Mikey it tore me up! I was alone with three small children and lost my love! The man I was suppose to be with for all times! That was and is still hard 14 years later! I survived though! This is tearing me up! So… Continue

Jennifer, I'm very sorry for the loss of your daughter.  There really isn't anything that can help right now.  Your loss is so fresh.  Take it minute by minute.  Breathe.  Be gentle with yourself and know that what you are feeling is what we all feel.  It will gradually ease some, but you will always love and miss her.  This will become your new 'normal', but we are here to listen and help in any way we can.  This is a wonderful group.  I pray your day went okay.  Hugs..

"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
