Teresa, if you need to go to the wake/funeral for Jake, God and Michael will be with you giving you the strength to get through it. I know this is a very difficult month for you. You have my prayers and love.

Teresa,

Its so difficult even to hear all this so I just can't imagine how it is, just that its all so much of pain, pain and pain...God help us all..love to everyone- u r all always in my thoughts.

It's like this can't be real, but I know it is. 

I appreciate the support.  You and I know there are no words.  Just knowing I have a place to turn during all this madness is enough. And there's no words I can say to her, all I can do is be there for her even during my own tough time.

My cousin is recovering. One bullet grazed her head and the other went in and out without hitting her brain. 

Emotionally I just don't know.  I know what it feels like to lose a child but to lose your husband too and he is the one responsible for it all. I just can't imagine what she will go through. 

This was DOMESTIC VILOENCE at it's worse.

They have been together since they were kids.  They have 3 children, an older daughter who lives on her own, a 14 year old that was there and locked herself in her bedroom and then their 10 year old son who is now with Michael.     

She stayed through it all because she said, she loved him.

She was quietly planning on leaving him after all these years and he found out. 

Oh my God I just thought of something....

The funerals.....how the hell am I going to do that?

I can't do that! Not now!  Not this month!

I'm so sorry Teresa.

We are here for you.

The pictures of the flowers are really nice.

Thank you to everyone for your support during this very difficult time.

I'm not sure how to process all this.

I was so hung up in my own grief this month dreading Michael's one year mark and this happens.  Now all I can do is think about what I know she is feeling and how horrible it is.  I think your right it is intensifying my own feelings of grief. I HATE SEPTEMBER!  I NEVER WANT IT TO COME AGAIN!

Teresa,

Horrifying and I really have no words- just keeping u in my thoughts and sending lots of prayers for peace.... all here -- love u all.

Teresa -   Gosh I just don't understand ... nothing makes sense anymore...    So so sorry this has happened.   HUGsss

Comment by Teresa D. on September 7, 2013 at 7:40am

Thank you for all your prayers.  Yesterday was a horrible day that has left many of us in disbelief.

I am emotionally exhausted.  My cousin survived. When I entered her hospital room she just looked at me and cried.  As she described her emotional pain and the emptiness she feels all I could say was, "I know".  I am sooo sad today. I need to believe Michael was there to get Little Jake and show him his way to heaven.  I just can't stop crying today.

Vasanthi I know moving on in life no matter how wonderful, is difficult. But I am so glad you have these special times with your fiancé. As much as it hurts you are right to follow your heart and live a life that your son would be proud of. He wants you to be happy and I believe that in in searching for the good and happiness in life we open our hearts to more communication with their spirit. God Bless you and Craig. Peace to everyone today. We are traveling and it is hard to relax and enjoy new places but as someone once said "traveling to a place you have never been is like dancing lessons from God"

Teresa What a horrific tragedy! I am so sorry. Words cannot express how sad it leaves my heart. I will be praying for your cousin. You are in the unfortunate position of being able to offer your insight and support to her family as she recovers, God willing. Hugs and live to you and your family.

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
