Profile Information:

About Me:
I am married with two teenage children. My life has been about as normal as one could ask for, with a few exceptions. I am a teacher and have experience as a teacher in the mental health field. I enjoy music, traveling and being with friends and family.
About my Loss:
My mother has been sick for a few years. She was not an invalid, but did at times have difficulties managing throughout the day. My father is very ill, and she was the caregiver to him. She died on June 15, 2008. Although she was in ailing health it was a surprise that she died before my father.

    I'm sorry for your loss. Feel free to post some pics and share some memories, I too have experienced loss and sometimes it just helps to share.

    I'm kind of in the same boat, sort of. I take care of my grandmother, her husband (my grandfather) passed in 2001. It's been so hard because she has dementia and you just never know what to expect. I would love to have my own life but right now I feel consumed with her life. Anyway keep in touch and if you ever just want to talk, leave me a message.

    I wish we knew for sure what exactly happens after death. But in reality, all we have to go on is faith. No one knows for sure but I will tell you that I have found comfort in the fact that I believe my brother and my father attempted to contact me after their death. Do you trust your intuition? Do you listen to the voice within? I think we all should.
    I wish I could reach through the computer screen and give you a hug. It is so hard, I know.
