We so miss our dear sweet son Jason.  Our life has changed so much!

Hey Mandy, some people should really think long and hard before they speak! Obviously that person that "suggested" that you simply have another child, either 1, still has all of her children or 2, does not have any children! People are not REPLACEABLE! I know how much it angered and hurt you when she said that to you. Our children are not just a "memory" to us! They are our children, our babies, they will always be. They had a life! I want my son here with me,  I will NEVER accept this.

Many hugs.

Not looking forward to New Years, feels like I am leaving Danny behind.

Does anyone else feel the dread of a new year because it means another year your child has been gone?  It is so difficult to think about, it will be 4 years this coming May since Silas died, and I can't bear to think about it.  It hasn't gotten easier, just longer... sending love to all friends here~

Although my grief is not new (almost 3 years now), I am new to this group.  I appreciate all the honesty I have seen and read since finding this on-line community. I have felt so very alone for so long (like being in a 1 person club).  I am grateful that you are all willing to share your hearts.  Just because my son is no longer with us, doesn't mean I want to stop talking about him.  But I believe it makes most people I'm normally around feel uncomfortable when I do.  They don't understand and don't know what to say in return, so I in turn don't say a whole lot so I don't make them feel uncomfortable.  My husband and I aren't on the same page in the grieving area either, which makes it very difficult.  To comment on Mary & Lorie's post, I still have my son's name in my phone too!  I dialed his number once and someone already had his old number.  That was kind of hard.

Lorie,

Little different for me...I want to sell our houe since Dan was living with us for a few years....too many memories, when I go in his room I just sit and cry..I can see him cooking me up something special in my kitchen...and then everytime my grandkids come over they go to the intercom because he use to play and talk to them on there....they want to talk to Uncle Danny...it breaks my heart

Mary, I still have Hunters # in my phone. There is a lighter in my glovebox that I took away from him the night before he died (he smoked and I didnt approve)..I cant bring myself to take that lighter outta my car and its been 2 years. I have also discovered that I cant move out of my apartment (into one closer to work) because Hunter had been to this apartment.

I can't get myself to take his name and number off my phone and email.....it feels like I would be letting him go......I still have his ashes I am not ready to spread them where he wanted and I find myself holding him and crying...then I figure if anyone knew this they would put me away, but I think you all understand so I can tell you.....am I crazy?

Reading all the comments again and feeling each one's pain along with my own.  Had to close my eyes and take a few deep breaths.  Then I imagined you all were in a room and when I walked in we all came together in a group hug.  Crazy?  Maybe, but it actually felt comforting for a minute.  Strangers, yet family.  A coming together because the worst thing that could happen to us happened.  I can only hope that because of this we can find some good from it.  

Love you all ... •. ¸ ♥ ♥ ¸ •

Hi Robin. It has been 2 years since my son died. (12/26/09), I wish I could bring myself to watch the old home videos of him but I cant make myself do it..yet. sometimes I feel like I may forget what his voice sounded like but I know that hearing him and seeing him will only make me miss him more. I dont want to go back to that dark depression I was in two years ago. I am so thankful I have the videos and I wont let anyone else watch them either. Does anyone else feel this way about home movies? Or is it just me?
