It's ok Teresa. I have a lot more time under my belt, and sometimes I just need to remind myself of what I have already surpassed, and of what my family has been through. This was just my way of letting myself know I have to keep on keepin on. Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind, and I wonder how much longer I can take it. When I look back at these posts it helps me muster up a little hope. I hope all of your day tomorrow is peaceful.

I want to be able to stand with you Anne.

It just doesn't feel right to say, "Happy Mother's Day" knowing most of us won't be happy at all.  I still want to acknowledge all the mom's in the room for the outstanding job you have done as a mother.

They will always be our kids, we will always be their moms, and we will always love them.

Every day is Mother's and Father's day. For without them there would be no children. I've decided to let it roll. I can't stop it, I can't change it, but I can change how I handle it. I was out moving the tractor and saw a dead duck. I wondered if his mother was grieving. We are not alone. I have no answers for any of it, but I have faith that one day it will all be stopped, and we will all be together. I will not allow myself to quit now. I have come to far, and have suffered far too much pain to give up. I have learned things I never wanted to know. I have done things I hope to never have to do again. I am strong, and I am wise. I refuse to let death take away my love, and my faith. I will fight until I take my last breath. This is what I expect from my family, and this is what they expect from me. I will not let them down! Today I am taking a stand.  I wish for all Peace, Love, and contentment.

I have been very quiet lately... sometimes just reading helps so lately I have felt like I was ok I have not really cried in almost 3 weeks until this morning at my littlest ones Kindergarten Graduation. I just wanted to ball my eyes out I guess Dylan was there with me cause he was on my mind hard..... I have also had some serious guilt with this I am "ok" feeling like how am I ok after only 5 months, why am I not crying everyday, I must not have loved him right if I feel ok after this short period. I read everyone's posts and my heart just breaks more because we all have to continue down this path without our children. This will be my first mothers day without Dylan and I am not sure how its going to be, we never really made a big deal about it so maybe it won't be to bad I really don't want to be all sad and make everyone around me miserable I guess that is a choice I will have to consciously make on Sunday. I send prayers and hugs to you all. This too shall pass.....

Last visit with my mother she finally broke her silence.  She spoke fondly of Michael and then very quietly I heard her blame herself.  All this time I just thought she didn't want to deal with it and it hasn't been that at all.  Instead she is blaming herself.  This weekend I need to let her know she was not only a great mom but she was a Super Grandmom. 

Adrianne, your right.  Just a day to sell cards and flowers. 

No matter what we are still their moms.  We will always have that love in our hearts.  Nothing can ever take this away from us, not even death.

Stupid Hallmark Holiday! That's all it is. A day designed to sell cards.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
