Sunday the 17th will be the first anniversary of Kyra's death. I got a single ticket to see the Long Island medium,at 3:00 on that day at a group event. This has been the hardest year of my life and many times I didn't think I would survive. I want to thank you all for being here to listen when I needed someone to hear me and support me when I felt hopeless. I have come a ways in dealing with the emptiness and I am so glad my daughter Genna will be moving back to Vermont in October. Thank you all again. Lynn

Dick, What a beautiful memorial for your son.  I'm only 2 months in and I just can't see it getting any easier.  I miss my daughter so much.  She was the light of my eye.  The only thing I did right.  It's so hard to keep myself together here at work or anywhere for that matter. But I'm doing my best.  I'm fortunate to have found this site.  I love you all.  My heart, prayers and love goes out to all of you.  Tight hugs and tears.

It will be coming up on two years this October for me since I lost my son. Yesterday I had to contact the sheriff's dept regarding the woman who ran over my son (she killed him in his own lane and is being charged with vehicular homocide) . The woman ran away before the court hearing so we are now looking for her. The sheriff dept was actually snotty to me in the first email back. Like somehow I should not be asking for an update on her whereabouts and their efforts to locate her. I asked back in the second email, "if you are not the appropriate person to contact in regards to updates please indicate who correct person is"...and yes, the next email through was totally different in tone. It is sad when a victim of a crime has an uphill battle on everything, including those who are "sworn to protect and to serve". I  think they forgot that part. Also our sheriff is an elected official, I would like to ask him who he thinks he works for.

Dick,
What a beautiful bench.. It just feels special to me.. This time of year just kills me .. It is getting closer to the date and I just relive everyday like it is a VHS movie playing over and over in my head .. Back to school .. Oh my daughter came over with her b friend and a couple of girls that are close friends.. We BBQ and she casually sends me a video that was taken almost to the day two years ago of my son on our last family vacation, he was putting a diaper on a doll for one of those silly shower games at my sister in laws shower. I can remember watching he and thinking, well it will be a long time till he has to actually do this he is so driven and smart.. But he will make a great dad some day,,, right? Well it emotionally killed me again I watched it once.. I read the definition of PTSD again today.. This is definitely it.. And yes it is grief and guilt for not protecting my boy from the evils of the world.. We set a scholarship up to give out each year because my son was so much in helping with better others education .. He would want that but I need to do something more to honor him and the great kid he was..I hate this time of year everyday plays over and over..

Missing my 16 yo son tonight. He died Aug.8, 2013 with his dad in a car accident. Laid on his still-unmade bed with its still-unwashed sheets with my head on his still-unwashed pillow and talked to him for awhile. I can't wait to see him again.

My pain is not only grief but guilt also, all wrapped up in a messed up piece.

every day I miss my boy... every night... all the time... I feel numb so much of the time now... except for that ache that never goes away... the longing and the pain... that never goes away ... ever....

:'( rough couple of days. A year is quickly approaching and it feels as though no one understands.
