Love is the key when we're grieving.

When we hear the words "I Love You", our hearts are instantly lifted!

Troubles disappear, we drop our problems on the floor of our emotional rooms, and we are overjoyed!

That's the power and spiritual healing of Love.

Our loved ones told us they loved us, and maybe said they will love us forever.

I keep finding notes, letters, cards from my wife and mother, all of the I Love You's......

Jami's hand print from when we painted the kitchen 5 years ago is on a wall next to the kitchen sink.

So many memories, imprints, just keep popping up......ongoing stuff!  Sometimes I just gaze off and go through my mind memory video, other times I just go on with what I was doing.

Moving on with my life........can't stop living after all.  

Playing games, having fun with my son, and being involved with him and school are such a huge lift also!

This child was with his mothers lifeless body in the home alone for 2 to 4 hours....that alone makes me wonder!
My coping all of this time compared to what he may have gone through on that day.  

There's something that protects children and I don't think it's just their resiliency.  It's something his mom

protected him from. the damage of her leaving on that day, with him home alone with her.

Something is there. ...... 

My dream of her lying beside me, when I awoke and looked over to where she was lying in the dream, right next to me, I saw my little boy.  He had gotten up out of bed and climbed into mine.  

He was sleeping next to her when she passed.

I will never forget that feeling, dreaming of her, waking and seeing him, and smelling her perfume.  

I will never need to take a trip the rest of my life because that really tripped me out!!!!! 

He just amazes me, so full of love and laughter, but at times a typical child.

Quite the world children's minds exist in.

I always liked the Cat Stevens song titled, 'Where Do The Children Play'

It's funny how we forget that we all played there at one time in our lives.....

I very much wish for the magic of Love to find you all today!

Michael

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.
