Does anybody else have anxiety about what happened? A couple of times, my daughter Laura has complained about pain in her abdomen, and it turns out that her pants were just too tight. But it really freaks me out because that was the first symptom for Ivy when she got sick- pain in her abdomen.

Hello to all,  I have learned to take better care of myself during this time.  I have to pace myself when i am around others that don't understand how hard this time is.  When others ask me why i don't decorate or why i don't enjoy the holidays.  I just answer them with this response.  My whole life changed when my son was killed, so now i spend every day learning to cope with that pain.  The holidays have loss the importance the once had.  This seems to work with most, but we all know how many others have opinions.  Please take care of yourselves during this time.

Hello to all, just checking in to say hello, haven't been on, just not feeling up to it, I feel like my sadness is escalating and the holiday season isn't helping. I just want my son and my life back, will NEVER accept this for my reality. My heart is with you all.

I really like the idea of doing something in Jimmy's memory - something important & meaningful to him. He was funny & bright, always the life of the party. He had a great, infectious laugh. He loved his little sister, was very protective of her. He loved his music & was a generous & giving friend. When he was young he would help me in the garden, he's always loved the beach. I'de like to plant a tree in his memory, somewhere meaningful to him. He loved to travel, always meeting new people where-ever he was. Because he was only given 22yrs in this world he wasn't able to travel as much as he would've liked so his brother, sister & I made a promise to bring a small amount of his cremains with us to leave whenever/wherever we travel.
The idea of the t-shirts is nice. Bless all of you during the holidays. We all miss out children - the holiday's intensify our feelings of sadness & loss. Blessings to all of you.

The holidays will never be a joy any longer. Miss my son. So very much.

Kitty you have such a great attitude. One thing I keep telling myself is that Ivy would not want us to be miserable. She would want us to be happy. Yesterday I put up a tree for her. I got some picture frames from the Dollar Store and put glitter on them and hung them up. One of Ivy's favorite things were her glitter shoes.

Nancy, great idea! In my son Kevins journal, he had written "Nothing is more comfortable then being so compleatly yourself." We had that put on the back of t-shirts. We are all going to wear them to Thanksgiving. Today I am going to tell you all what you already know....this hurts so bad. Tomorrow, for my boys, I am going to smile. Oh, we will cry for a bit, but, like I have said since his death in January, 'Here I am and forward I will go.'

almost a year, i cant believe it.

have the best Thanksgiving you can. God Bless.

This year is my son's second year of his birthday and holidays since he passed.  Since he loved his lab dogs so much, whom we still have as a part of our family, I'm going to donate to a lab rescue in Nate's memory as birthday and Christmas gifts.  Also to a local mission for the homeless, our local animal shelter, and a wildlife rehabilitation center.  Nathan loved his dogs and the great outdoors so much that I can't think of a better way to honor his memory.  I will also bake his favorite cake- angel food- for his birthday.  Love and miss him every moment of every day, and it doesn't seem to be getting any easier...
