Gale,
I am deeply sorry for your loss. I lost my only son who was 27 in a car accident and my prayers are with you and all here. I understand the unbelievable pain and here we can talk about it with everyone and be really understood. It is just such a pity that young lives are snuffed out like this and we live through it. I hope you have people around you who can be of help in some way.Please take care and while no words can express the sorrow and grief please know that I/we are there for you.xoxox
Lynn, thanks for that beautiful body of words about holding on. I am desperately trying to do that. Gale
Thanks for sharing Lynn
Lynn thanks for sharing that......I'm holding on
that's very beautiful.
Some one sent this to me and thought it was so true
There was a time
following the death of my daughter Erin in 1990
when I simply
did not
could not
believe there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
If you are at that place
today
right now
the best you may be able to do is
Hold On
Hold On
Hold On.
Know that we
who have been
where you are now
send you love
and light
and hope
and strength.
Hold on.

I'm with you Adrianne, I think the first year I spent it trying to negotiate, this year is more the reality. It's mixed in with a little disbelief but it's still me facing just how real this is. And your right it is emotionally and physically draining.
LOVE love LOVE to you all..... (( and gentle understanding hugs ))
Broken... Just so Broken ...
Hi everyone - I believe all of these signs and experiences are real. I just wrote a long message and lost it somehow. Frustrated!
Teresa, changing the will is a tough one. We had to do that before we traveled last year just in case. Wow - so many things that I wanted Daniel to have . Now they all seem pointless with no other children or grandchildren. But there was some comfort in getting that in order so that we are prepared and no one will have to figure these things out if we were to both pass together. But such a tangible reminder...
LR - I was saying that I also have done research and it helps me deal with everything a little better. Yesterday I was singing "Dancing in the Sky" and concentrating on just singing it to Daniel when all of a sudden I swear I felt him right in front of me and I was so happy and sad all at the same time. He said "don't cry, I want you to be happy." The big question is "how do i do that without him in my life ?" Anyway I believe the signs and communications are their way of trying to help us get through until we are together again and can understand it all.
Vasanthi - I am so happy that you found a way to be involved in giving service. I have missed hearing from you. You too Merry
Michele - I wish I could go to the walk but am afraid my trip to Chicago was last month! I wish they had local walks that coincided. I hope you will represent us. :)
Lynn - am thinking of Kyra so much lately as I have been gardening alot. I will remember you both on her birthday.
Love to everyone here, and a special hug for you Kim. ((( )))
