- About Me:
- I'm 17, spiritual and strong minded, I believe in god and will do anything for children. I am training to work in a special education school or even a day care as long as I work with and look after children.
- About my Loss:
- On the 18 of the 6th 2012, my girlfriend and I lost a sweet little boy after a miscarriage. We both took it hard and often looked for something to blame, usually we would blame ourselves or each other until we started to believe in god again. The only people we could talk about it to was each other due to the fear of judgement from our friends and resentment or being disowned by family. So we bottled it up, not venting the grief in an appropriate manor. We may be young, so people expect us to get over it. But it just isn't that easy, its been 8 months or so and I still find it hard. It just seems so unfair that Daniels little eyes couldn't meet ours...

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?
Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
"Hi Rosa,
First, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Losing someone you love only two days ago is incredibly painful, and it’s understandable that you’re feeling unsure about what to do right now.
Personally, I don’t…"

I am so sorry to hear about you great loss.
My daughter suffered through 6 miscarriages and each one was VERY painful.
Here is a link to an interesting article that includes a discussion on the topic of miscarriages. Please read the whole article, I think it will give you much to think about.

Thank you. I am also sorry to hear of your loss. I've suffered a miscarriage before, years ago, but circumstances then effected how I felt about the loss. I can tell you that while your pain may never go away, you will learn to better cope with it. I'm so sorry that you're going through this pain. I'm a mother of two now and I can't imagine the pain I would feel if something were to ever happen to them. If you ever need to talk, please feel free to message me. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your girlfriend. *hugs*
