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...

Dear Brandon,

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.

I hope it helps.

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*

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
