Dear Lisa,

Your loss is tremendous and I cannot even begin to feel the pain of loosing a child. I have no children. My mother died 3 weeks ago this Monday from that murderer cancer. She lived a nice, lovely life for the most part. Your daughter was taken way to soon. I miss my mom every single minute. She was my everything. We share a birthday and loved shopping and doing so many things together. I have 2 sisters who are just so very cruel and selfish, always have been. So I am alone now. No father, he left us when we were kids. Mom raised us alone. We all have suffered a loss that is life changing, life altering. Most of my friends have given me support but most of them are thinking I should be moving along faster and getting on with my life. My sisters want me to come over and go through her things. I cannot. I read about you all that have lost children. It melts my heart. You were very blessed to have such a beautiful child, I have you in my heart now. Sue

If I could leave this earth on my owns terms and know I would be reunited with my mother...you would be reading my obituary. I am tired of going through the motions of what we call living. My husband of 20 years left me 2 years ago. Thats a death if you really think about it. Now mom. I am completely empty. I have absolutely not one person to TRULY be beside me and help me through this most lonely time. It's sad but great that we have to reach out to eachother on this support line because we are obviously NOT getting it at home. Lisa, there has to be a reason for you me..and all of us to still be breathing. You have a friend in me. Sue

Hello Lisa I wanted ti share two scriptures with you, these are the two that I hold on to. Lise when you read them think about your daughter, how many people through her journey these short 17 years did she touch. John 9 vs1-2...Now Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. His disciples asked Him, saying Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? Jesus answered, neither this man or his parents, BUT THAT THE WORKS OF GOD SHOULD BE REVEALED IN HIM. 2, Isaiah The servant's death did not result in defeat, but victory. The one who died WOULD LIVE AGAIN. The servants successfully completed HIS MISSION.. Lisa I feel your pain and distress, looking at your daughters video I learned about the disease look at how your daughter touch so many lives> I hope you write those scriptures down and meditate on them I pray that GOD gives us all the strength we need to go on, not only for ourselves but our children....Stay stronge seek Gods direction and KICK THAT DEVIAL TO THE CURB!!!!!!lol lol lol Deantes mom 4 life Tammy

Lisa, I just saw your photos. What a beautiful young lady your daughter is. The one picture of her between the two pillars made me think of her in the presence of our Lord. I do tend to symbolize things, so please don't think I'm too crazy.

Be blessed, Ann

Hi Lisa. I know exactly how you feel. I have been trying so hard to just keep putting one foot in front of the other and I think I am really trying so hard to avoid the truth. Saturday will be three months since my son, Zach, had his accident. When I stop and am not busy for a minute, I start to replay that day all over again in my head. I feel exactly like you said then, it literally is like someone just punched me in the chest and takes my breath away from the pain. I can't believe that I will never be able to hug my son again. I would give anything to be able to tell him I love him just one more time. Some how we will get through this. It does help knowing that others are feeling the same way, and that we are not alone. You and all that are going through the same loss as we are, are in my prayers. Robin
