Oh everyone, the holidays just make it all so much harder. I empathize with you all and feel the same. Litigation is coming up again and I feel like I just can't do it anymore. But I will fight on for my son. Hugs Vasanthi, sometimes everything seems futile but try to keep your faith to help you through this tough time. I feel the same

Adrianne, did you change your e-mail address completely from your old account? Is the old one active on your computer? Do you still have old ipad? You may be able to retrieve if you can still use the old address. Otherwise, I'm not sure but you can go to the Apple store and get help for free. Maybe they can help reactivate and retrieve old threads. Good luck!!!!

Back on 31st ..somehow could not log in here. Have had a very rough time after coming back and like Connie my chest is going to explode, I just feel that whatever changes I make to my life, nothing really helps me and I am really very very sad and alone and LOST without my son.. How do I ever really get better and feel better? I WANT my son back.

I need help. I have been a member for some time. I got a new iPad and couldn't log on. Old email a thing of the past. No where do I see a place to address this with a monitor. I re registered but I want my old threads with my friends, dialogue, etc back. Can anyone help? Thanks Adrianne
PS. Still been reading. Holidays suck.

I made a lot of mistakes in my life, now it is guilt and pain.

Teresa,

Danny was also a donor, but he never told me. They called me and I denied them, I could not deal with it. I did not know that was his wishes.

I am sorry now.

I found out Michael was donating to the "organ fund".  I felt so proud of him when I discovered it among his things.

I also found out at Christmas Michael would visit his friends that had kids. He would have his arms full with gifts and tell the kids he found them on the step and that Santa must have left them there. 

Yet every year when I wrote Love Santa on his gifts he would tell me how silly I was and here he was being Santa. 

This just reminded me how much Michael loved Christmas.

Dick, yes, I do look for things on the web about my son, Chris. He was an assistant state's attorney, so I do find articles and things about him. It helps me remember he was real, that he made a difference. I have been working on a scrapbook since his one year anniversary. I get to it when I'm up to it; otherwise, it just sits on the dining room table with photos and other things I want to include.

I think giving service to others is something that definitely helps deal with grief because it gets you out of yourself and renews a sense of purpose. Maybe Danny helped you find that info. Perhaps you might consider volunteering there to honor Danny and enrich your own spirit. I feel like our children are our teachers now.

Trying so hard to pull myself out of this horrible funk I'm in this week. I feel like my chest is going to explode. I have to find something and somehow to make a difference in this world.

Does anyone else surf the web just trying to find parts of your child's past. I do and generally find the same things, nothing new.

Well, I do. I found out Danny was a volunteer at the Center for Hearing and Speech in 2009 - 2010. He never told me. Makes me sad and happy at the same time. Why was such a soul taken?

FYI, Compassionate Friends will have their candle lighting ceremony Sunday, December 14, 2014 at 7:00 PM. The ceremony is for the children we have lost. I hope you can find a location close to you and attend, you will not be disappointed. I light a candle for Danny and my mother one for my niece.
