When I read your words....I feel that I can make it too. You have had so much on your plate in your life. You are a strong woman. Love Sue
Jennifer, I'm very sorry for the loss of your daughter. There really isn't anything that can help right now. Your loss is so fresh. Take it minute by minute. Breathe. Be gentle with yourself and know that what you are feeling is what we all feel. It will gradually ease some, but you will always love and miss her. This will become your new 'normal', but we are here to listen and help in any way we can. This is a wonderful group. I pray your day went okay. Hugs..
