Teresa so nice that you could feel Micheal's presence through it all.. Michelle, I have felt the same many times when a certain person, the way they carry themselves or a smile brings back memories.. I once was walking in a busy marketplace in Mumbai and suddenly a tall young man was keeping step with me. For a second I fell back to the times I used to scurry to keep pace with my long legged son.. then I shook myself out of that , looked up at the tall boy walking next to me and smiled and let him go on..an aching heart all the way back and tears for something that will now never be .. how painful and poignant are these experiences.. hugsss ..I still feel better knowing that we are all in this together.. Judy what a rough time you are having..maybe it would be a nice thing to contact your mother while keeping in mind that you are doing so not for changes from her but so that you know you reached out and grew in stature by doing so.. all my prayers for you..

Connie.. how are you doing? do let us know.

Havent heard from Jane too or Bern..

Dolly is BO ok and how are you? Is the ringing in your ears better? Here we have a new visitor.. a guinea pig who is with us while his owners have gone for a holiday..Love watching Craig with Sparkles the Guinea pig and Tiger our cat.. he is so gentle and loving and the animals seem to understand this and kind of relax with him..Everyone please take care and again thanks for all the love .xoxoxox

love to everyone

Judy, I'm sorry to hear about all the sadnesses in your family. How do you feel about contacting your mom?

Judy, I am so sorry you are having such a hard time.  I do pray that things ease up for you shortly.  We definitely need those little breaks to carry us through and through and through it all again.

Hugs to everyone.

Hello all. I sure you thought I'd given up on the group not so.
The last 2 1/2 months have been the hardest months I've gone through so far. See my entire family start Oct.29 and finish up Feb 19th.

My son 6 month passing date came and 3 days later I lost my Animal of 13 years. Which just compound the pain. I laid in bed 5 days and cried a river. My partner got me up made me shower and took to a movie. I had to pull to gather somehow my oldest grandson birthday was nov.17. I pull it off. I over did it because of him losing his father.
Dec 1 hit and back to bed I went all I was doing was breathing air and wasting space. On the third of December it was my son 33 birthday. Oh I was dying in side. I stayed in bed this time about 8 days then I knew again I had to pull it together because my youngest grandson had his 3 rd birthday again I went way over board. I could return to zombie land because there mom had me and their papa take to a party. For needy family's so I made through that. However I finally got my son death certificate. It stated he passed of a meth overdose so again I've gone to the bottom of the of the pit. And some how this weekend I've got be happy no tears because we are having Christmas with my boys. So no I haven't gone away I just been a useless human. Trying to put one foot in front of the others..I hope your Christmas were nice, merry Christmas to all my friends. And a Happy new year if I don't get back till a little after the first hugs and kisses to all thank for listening

Teresa
Good for you! Such an intense show of love for your son!

Teresa, what a wonderful tribute to your son! You must be very proud of what you accomplished--at least you should be. It was a great photo of the kids playing, having a wonderful time.

I had a meltdown Christmas Eve after 6 o'clock mass. I sat behind a young adult man who, from the back and profile, reminded me of Chris. He was about the same height and had a reddish beard and was a big guy as Chris was at various times in his life. I kept it together during mass, but as soon as I got in the car, I broke down and sobbed. I guess I really needed to, as I know I've kept things bottled up.

I'm glad Christmas is over and I'm equally glad we all made it through, one way or another. Blessings to each of you and hopes for a New Year with more peace and comfort.

Teresa, I was just closing my email when I saw you posted.  This is so great.  I'm so happy for you. I'm glad you had the strength to follow through even though I know it must have been very difficult.  

God bless you.

Then to come home and see how supportive you all have been is just heart warming.  Everyone is so appreciated! 

Today was heartbreaking but great at the same time. This is going to be my new Christmas. My ex-husband and I surprised the winners with gift certificates. What a day!  Michael is smiling down telling me I did the right thing.  Today was for him and the things he loved!

The best part of the day, I was able to hold back the tears. Crying right now but that's ok.

My heart is with each and everyone one of you.  While I'm being selfish right now and focusing on myself. I want you to know I read every single posts and I appreciate every bit of what is shared and the support that I receive here.  I could never say THANK YOU enough to any of you, even those of you who don't think so.
