Today before I went to work I watched the movie 8 seconds. I did ok till they carried out his casket. I cried so hard I had to change my tear soaked shirt. I went to work, and held a beautiful tiny 5 week old baby girl in my arms, and I cried. That little child reminded me that life goes on whether we like it or not. I can't hold my own boys anymore, but I am grateful that I have these tiny little reminders to bring joy to my broken heart.

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

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.

-Tom Zuba

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.

The wave of reality that this is real is taking me out. Emotionally and physically.
