C. S. Lewis once said.

“ If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair. ” 

My comfort comes from finding the TRUTH about why bad things happen. About why people suffer. About why people (even very innocent and precious children) have to die?

I believe that there have been so many lies taught to people that they conclude there is no truth. I can completely understand that. The search for truth can be frustrating and tiresome, but it is there, and once we find it, we finally get the help we need.

I am so sorry for the loss you have suffered. It has created a hole in your heart and life that will never be filled. I hope that you can find some comfort (it won't take the pain away) because true comfort gives us hope and purpose.

If there is anything that i can do to help please just let me know.

Jessica Im so sorry you are hurting so bad and cannot find the support you need.  You could try calling a doctors office and asking how to contact any local support groups that relate to grief.  I cant remember what the name of the national organization for parents who have lost a child but someone here is sure to know and Im sure a doctors office would know as well.  When my son died I was contacted by our local group but chose not to deal with them because I have a great family support system and it was such a horrible time I honestly barely remember those phone calls let alone the name.  I hope while you continue your search for support you find some help and comfort here.
