Hello Kari, so sorry that you have joined our "club", I haven't been on in awhile but have been a member more than 3 yrs now. I haven't lost a parent but I know the pain all too well relating to losing your child. My pain and sorrow is as fresh today as it was when my nightmare first began. It still bewilders me that I can actually say that I am a member of such a group, I will NEVER accept what has happned to my son. You will find a lot of support here, thats for sure. No one will judge or criticize your thoughts and feelings. My hearts with yours as well as all parents that are walking in our shoes. Sending you many hugs.
Dear Kari
I am so so sorry for your all of your loss of your son. I wish I could take away some of your heartbreak but can only offer support and a safe place to share your feelings. My son passed on Dec.1, 2012 as a passenger in a car accident and it seems like yesterday. As time goes on many people act like we should be getting back to normal. Like Michele said in her post, I don't know what to do with myself. Daniel was my only child and he was sick with Crohn's and I only work part time so I could be there for him. Now at 3pm when I would normally pick him up from school, I feel so lost. But today I will go to the accident site with flowers and a valentine for my sweet angel boy. Oh God I miss him so much I can barely even write the words. Sending everyone love and support on a difficult day to get through. Connie
Today would have been my nephew's 29th birthday. He has been gone a little over three years and it has been 17 months since I lost my son, Zach. I kept trying to picture them together with other family members up in heaven having a huge party. It helps me to believe that my parents are finally able to meet my son, and to be with him until I can be with him again some day. I haven't been on for awhile, it is so sad to see new members because I know another parent is having to endure the most excruciating pain that we have all had to endure. I will say, for me, I do have some days where I can think of Zach and smile over a memory. I won't lie, there are still days when it will hit me hard, but I remember that I have felt the pain before and survived it and that helps me know I can get through this with God's help one moment at a time. Praying we all can find some peace. Hugs.
Adrianne, you're not alone. Reality really hits hard and some days are unbearable. But we muddle through it in a haze in order to function. Peace be with you and everyone here on this site.
So sorry Michele. Sending you hugs.
I just have to share. I have been told by two doctors that I was having a misscarriage. I went into the doctor thinking I was going to schedule a D and C. They did an ultrasound just to make sure there was no baby. And there was. And everything is fine! I was so depressed about losing this pregnancy and it just made me miss Ivy sooo much more. I am still in complete shock.
