Hey Adrianne E., just wanted to say, I think like what Teresa D. said, that sometimes I just think that one of us may just be taking a break, for whatever reason. There have been many, many times, when I just check in and read postings and I don't comment, my heart is always with  you guys but I do appreciate any and all concerns of my absence, I haven't forgotten the loss of one of our members, I will never forget how she decided to end her pain, I wish she would have sought another intervention.

I want to reach out to everyone but I don't know what to say other than I care...

Hello to all, wasn't sure if I would be able to get on today. Today marks the 4th anniversary of my son's passing :(, obviously a day that I will always hate. Most of my friends and family either forgot or avoided me today, some, I'm sure were thinking that their acknowledgement of this day would only upset me but they feel to realize that their remembering, is actually a good thing for me, especially since I'm always agonizing over the mere thought that everyone will forget him as if he never had a life.  They don't understand that he is not just a "memory' to me, he's my son, he will ALWAYS be my son and I will always be his mom and I want him back, not later.....right now!! He had a life and should still be here enjoying it, he was only 21 yrs old for goodness sake and I'm still very angry, angry at those who are responsible and myself for discontinuing his life support. I'm always begging for his forgiveness, my guilt is still heavy. I try to convince myself I did the "RIGHT" thing for him but it never works, I just have feelings of profound regret. Rationally, it probably was the best but in my heart I feel like contributed to his demise, in my book, this is the worse possible feeling that anyone could ever feel, it's quite tormenting at times. Somehow, I make it to the next day. 

Dawn, Hailo, is absolutely adorable, what a gift!

Dawn, your little Hailo is precious.  I hope she will bring you much joy.  

I know my 2 youngest grandchildren have helped me immensely.  Just something about babies.  

Love, peace, and comfort to all.

Teresa thank you for your kind words and all here too.. xoxoxox

Dolly,

Just be as you are.. no one on earth need be given the power to make you feel bad about anything. It is all so recent and one cant be expected to go on as if nothing happened. You are just lovely as you are and its not some pep talk, i feel your sincerity and honesty and I'm having some pretty bad days too. For me it is almost 2 years this Dec and though time cant give me my son back , the shock of it is wearing off and I try to do things like get quiet time, even when I am all alone and try to still the mind by some uplifting reading.. sometimes i just watch tv mindlessly. You know that everyone around do try their best in their own way but our sorrow is such a weird peculiar one as we are sorrowing for what is against the natural order..I never used to have fear earlier, now i seem to fear everything, right from getting into the car and driving.. for a good 10 minutes, I feel my heart beating and i sweat... Craig has asked me to breathe deeply when that happens and the breathing does help.. so I am trying to help myself get better.next week I have to leave and get there... changes are the way life has been and will be. I am putting away things in the house and yesterday went through all of his pics as i need to carry many with me.. it is brutal for us to go through this.. i wish i could just hold you. I know how much you miss caring fro Brandon.. it is like one role is  snatched away and in its place is a huge void.. Again the recency is what is hurting you,I am not saying that we will ever forget but I badly want to get to a place where love does the talking and not the damn pain.

Ammy don't ever think no one missed you, because I notice when others have done silent.  I just assume others are doing what they need to do for themselves to get through this. 

Anne anything anyone has to say that is positive is medicine for me.  I take what others try and say and see if it will work for me.

Now I even pass some of it along to my cousin Jessy.  I could not have handled Jessy if it wasn't for the support I got here. 

Vasanthi, keep your encouraging quotes coming.

Lynn I wish I had a friend like yours.

And for those of you who are further down the road please don't stop sharing because for me your words prepare me for what's to come and it let's me know I'm ok when I have melt downs like the other day.
