Today I received a belated birthday present from Chris...and St. Anthony! "Something" told me to look one last time in a place both my husband and I had checked several times and there, in plain sight, was the beautiful necklace my husband gave me Thursday on my birthday. St. Anthony has helped me find so many things in the past, and I am 100% convinced that Chris had a hand in this, too. He still remembered his mom on her birthday, albeit 2 days after the fact. Chris, I love you so much!

How can it hurt more today, than it did yesterday?

I know for a period of time I couldn't find anything.  Some days I ran around the house searching and didn't even know what I was looking for.  I just thought if I searched I'd find it.

Connie beautiful poem.  Thank you for sharing it. 

Grace your dream brought tears to my eyes.

I envy those of you with dreams.  I only had the one 3 months after Michael left.  It seemed like it was only for a quick 2 seconds.  He drove by with a big smile holding his fingers up making the peace sign.  I'd give anything for a hug even if it is in a dream.

Michelle, this may sound a bit crazy but when I lose things I say a prayer to Saint Anthony. I was taught as a young child that he is the patron saint of things lost. When I lose something very important to me I pray to him, and usually I find what I'm looking for, and if not I accept that it wasn't meant to be found.

Connie, you sweet, caring, loving human being. I am at a place where every line of that poem is true. I wish I would've wrote that myself! Haha! Every word I have known, and felt. Those words rang so true to my heart. Thank you so much for sharing it. I have had another really tough week, but because of the support and caring from all of you I am ready to fight another day. I spent 2 days this week feeling sorry for myself. I believe that was enough.

Grace you are allowed to have a pity party when you need to. As long as you don't allow them to take over your life it's a good thing. I myself throw a pity party for myself once in a while, and afterwards sometimes I giggle at myself cause I know this too shall pass. I have always learned from the pity parties I have held for myself. That's why I tell others to not feel sorry for me because I do that very well all by myself!

Grace Niles is with you. He's right there in your heart, and soul. We as humans sometimes think, and feel that we will never see our loved ones again. I just don't believe that's true. I believe that after we have traveled or journey for a while we do feel them near. I feel my boys near. Not all the time but most of the time I do feel them, and God near. I used to be so jealous when a person would tell me about dreams they had about their child who passed. I had nothing but nightmares. To this day I never dream about my Ben, and when I dream about my Lil Del it's always a terrible nightmare. So I don't count on seeing them in my sleep, but I do feel them, and their love in my heart everyday. Those that have the good dreams about their child are very lucky, but I feel lucky too that I can still hear there laughter, and feel their smile in my heart.

I went to a child care class last night because I work at a daycare, and they said that if you focus on the bad behavior that's what you'll get is bad behavior. If you focus on the good behavior more, you'll get more good. I think that applies to grieving parents also. If we focus on all of the bad, that's what we'll get. If we take the time to focus on the good maybe we'll get more good than bad.

Vasanthi your dream was beautiful, and I believe Micks was letting you know that he's ok, and he knows that your always there for him even if he's not here on earth. You never stop being a mother even if our child is not here on earth, and even though were apart they still need our love.

Dolly, I hope your doing as ok as you can. Thinking of you.

Peace, and Love to all!

I'm sorry I missed you birthday yesterday, but if means anything Happy Belated Birthday Michelle. Me, and I'm sure many others are very blessed that you were born. Thinking of you always.

Connie that was a beautiful poem... tugged so much at my heart. I dreamt earlier that Micks somehow was with my ex husband and that they had changed homes and I am frantic saying Oh God , I dont know his address and I was crying. then someone in the dream said ," ok you don't know the address but you have his number and so you can call anytime. that soothed me and I slept on! How much of anguish we are all experiencing... hugs to all of you.

Beautiful poem.

Thank you.

We needed that.

Grace - I have had a few dreams like that, where you know somehow in the dream that you have hug as tight as you can. I don't think they are dreams, but visits. A gift from the other side really. It's your Niles way of giving you the physical love we all miss so much. And yes, it is heartbreaking to wake up from but also amazing to have the opportunity to feel that again. Awe and sorrow, it is the way of life I guess. It is so so sad to think of never being able to see of talk or hug them in the same way. But his spirit is there with you and will always be. But I am sorry you feel the pain so fresh again. Ever since my last "dream" which was 3 weeks ago, I just want him back every second of every day. Hugs to you
