Made it through one Thanksgiving....a lifetime more to go! There were many many tears yesterday! My own and those of my other children and of Katannas dad!

Heavy Hearted Thanksgiving

I sit here trying so hard to remember that I have so much to be thankful. For on this Thanksgiving Day! I have six children still with me on this earth! I have many friends and family that love me! I have a home and food! But All I can think is I don't have her! When I lost my husband Mikey it tore me up! I was alone with three small children and lost my love!

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..

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
