I haer all of your hearts.... It is a very long road... some days are good some are not.... lately I have been having strange dreams... many about my Niles as if things were "Before"... IEP Meetings..... But last night I dreamed of other Children and deaths.... I wonder if it is because of the Philippines having the Floods and Devastation? It is just so hard to sleep at night...... I feel for all of the parents I hear that lose a child.... and some days I wonder if I will meet them here... in our group... would like to hug them all.... us all.....
i actually wish we didn't survive
Teresa
Me too.
How many more can we survive?
I haven't moved in 2 days.
Dolly
One day at a time.
One breath at a time.
Do what you can, when you can.
I pretty much shut down yesterday. I just couldn't pull myself out of it. Not feeling so great today, feeling really sick to my stomach. Vasanthi your right this is exhausting and emotionally draining. Not sure who I am anymore. I miss Michael soooo much!
Connie.. awesome.. have shared it on fb as the peom is too lovely and so simple,its stunning..I am having a very tough time dealing with pain.. I know its all about how we deal the cards thrown at us, but I really don't want to be here and keep on trying,its so damn exhausting:(
The Cord
Author Unknown
We are connected,
My child and I, by
An invisible cord
Not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord
That connects us 'til birth
This cord can't been seen
by any on Earth.
This cord does it's work
Right from the start.
It binds us together
Attached to my heart.
I know that it's there
Though no one can see
The invisible cord
From my child to me.
The strength of this cord
Is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed
It can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord
Man could create
It withstands the test
Can hold any weight.
And though you are gone,
Though you're not here with me,
The cord is still there
But no one can see.
It pulls at my heart
I am bruised...I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline
As never before.
I am thankful that God
Connects us this way
A mother and child
Death can't take it away!
Adrianne, I am truly sorry you have another tragedy to deal with. As the others have said, this is not your fault. My heart aches for you.
Have caught up again with the comments but there are too many for me to remember each one. My heart hears each of you. I am where you are or have been there. It's just not a constant with me anymore.
Merry, I am happy for you that you are improving. I mentioned quite awhile back that I took 5-HTP. I don't think I would have managed without it. I didn't want prescription medication for depression and found the 5-HTP. I think you said your chiropractor told you to take it with B6. My chiropractor didn't tell me to take the 5-HTP but told me I need to also take B12 to make the B6 work properly. Ask yours about that.
Dolly, 5-HTP is a natural mood enhancer. It also helps some to sleep better and can control the appetite. I found an organic one on Amazon but use to take the Natrol brand. You can probably find it in larger Drugstores that sell supplements.
God's blessings on all of you. Hugs.
