True Peggy and Stephanie...  many people think it is a "Blessing" because our kids had "Special Needs" ... but we also spent so much hard work in fighting for the best interests of them...  always protecting them yet it feels like some how no matter how hard we were on Guard they slipped through the cracks and we lost them.... It is such a deep Pit this grief.... and it does help to share feelings with others who have been there..... Even our best friends can not "Imagine" how painful this is.......Our Brain protects us from this until we live it....

Hi Peggy... I lost my 14 year old Son who had Autism from a siezure in May of 2009.

I hope reading our thoughts helps you feel like you are not the only person "Alone" in this pain.....  Welcome .... even though we all wish we were not "Welcomed" into such a sad group..... PEACE

I would like to thank Dick for suggesting joining this group.  I lost my daughter(Heather) a little over 1 1/2 years ago and I am still struggling over it.
