just to say thinking of all here.. was down with some stomach infection, so an upset tummy with slight fever and a headache hasn't made for any kind of peace the last 2 days--missed my son too much , keep crying in bn ..at all odd times, and so many more things to deal with :(... i read everything here in between and can really say how much my heart goes to all here --we r struggling so much with a new reality-- new and undesirable and so against the norm... 

Michelle.. i know when the man isnt the biological father his issues wont relly have much to do with our baby.. its difficult but the world isnt really perfect-- just kind of thank god for having supportive ones around even if at times they don't appear supportive-- easy to say i know.. so difficult ...Dawn Opfer....hope for lots of love for you with your family and to all others here too...love and peace in our daily lives... Thanks Teresa and hope slowly we can all feel more peace with each passing day-- Mary... i know how difficult it is to just extend of ourselves right now-- i can understand so well-- u must be screaming inside... maybe just say , i'm sorry imnot fit rt now for anything and let someone more happier do it-- later it can all be done ... u r in my prayers,

Marilyn, what a lovely owl..mmm...imagine it saved u all -- who knows isnt it? ... wherever our children are i desperately hope that alls ok... what if he needs me?:(

Teresa, I sure can understand the dread you feel with the coming of September. I am already dreading Thanksgiving this year...and November 22, despite it's the day my husband retires...because Thanksgiving (11-22) was the last time I got to see my son Chris before he died in March. And as I type the word "died," it seems impossible that I use that word about my son!

I got something in an e-mail from a friend today that I haven't yet looked at but the e-mail mentioned Fred Astaire being in it and, despite being a young man, Fred Astaire was always my son's favorite actor, even when Chris was a teenager. My initial thought was, "Oh, I'll watch it and then forward it to Chris," only to have my breath taken away when I realized immediately that Chris is no longer around to forward it to.

Teresa - It's not you.  I think we all have that dread. Mine is Dec.1 We are already talking about where we are going to go for Christmas. And the holidays just seem like looming torture. How can it be that time keeps going? That he hasn't come home? How can it be? I think the grief we anticipate is scary. But the reality that this is how it is for the rest of out lives is the worst. Just know we are all thinking of you and sending prayers. God bless and be with everyone.

Having so much anxiety about September 14th coming.  Is it me?  I can't stop hearing that phone call in my head.  For those that are further am I going to re-live it?  I'm so scared and I don't know why.

Marilyn and Dawn it must be hard to clean their rooms out.  HUGS!

Marilyn I'm also glad things went well for your hubby.

Mary I am so glad you were able to share time with your family and enjoy the memories with smiles. 

Vasanthi, hope today is not as frayed as yesterday.

Dawn what a houseful.  I know you didn't but I smiled as I pictured the scene in your kitchen.  It reminded me of the time Michael at the age of 13 had friends spend the night and I woke up to potatoes all over the kitchen.  They decided in the middle of the night to make mashed potatoes and used a blender without putting a lid on it.  Potatoes flew everywhere.  I was so mad when I woke up and found their mess they didn't even try to clean up.  Now I laugh and wish I could wake up to one of Michael's disasters.

Love to everyone.
