Don't grieve alone; 14,000 members and growing
A place to share writings or pictures that you found helpful in your journey. I know that over the last 3+ years I have saved many.
8/30/15 It is now over 5+ years and I am still travelling this journey of grief, but it has changed. It is a little kinder and gentler at times.
I had hoped that others would have shared on here. Anything that you have that touches you. Writings, pictures?

The Elephant In The Room
There's an elephant in the room.
It is large and squatting, so it is hard to get around it.
Yet, we squeeze by with, "how are you" and "I'm fine..."
and a thousand other forms of trivial chatter.
We talk about everything else except the elephant in the room.
We all know it's there.
We are thinking about the elephant as we talk.
It is constantly on our minds.
For you see, it is a very big elephant.
But we do not talk about the elephant in the room.
Oh, please, somebody say my child`s name; Oh, please, say it again.
Oh, please, let`s talk about the elephant in the room.
For if we talk about their death, perhaps we can talk about their life.
Can I say their name...and not have you look away?
For if I cannot, you are leaving me alone...
In a room...with an elephant.
