Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen's discussion STUPID things people say... " Vent Here " in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"Karen, That was so wonderful of those women who stopped to help you. I know it would mean a lot to me also. My Kate died near the college she just started going to, which is about 5 hours from where we live. In a way I'm glad that it…"
Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen's discussion STUPID things people say... " Vent Here " in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"Hi Melissa, Losing a child is not natural, not the way things should be. Our children were just starting their journey and then their lives were taken away from them. There are so many wonderful things they are going to miss out on. The only…"
Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen's discussion STUPID things people say... " Vent Here " in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner Sandy, I haven't been feeling well, kind of like I have the flu. I think I may have read the Worst Lost after Kate died, but I don't remember for sure. I definitely think a catastrophic…"
Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen's discussion STUPID things people say... " Vent Here " in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"I know how you feel Karen, it does sound crazy. I read the post in the local paper about the accident and it said Katelyn was pronounced dead at the scene. It makes me sick to my stomach. The pain sure is torturous, and it isn't getting…"

Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen's discussion STUPID things people say... " Vent Here " in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"Sandy, I know what you mean, sometimes I say things like Kate was pronounced dead at the scene, and I feel sick. We should never have to say these things about our precious girls, they should be out enjoying their lives. You're right, at least…"
Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen's discussion STUPID things people say... " Vent Here " in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"I just saw the pictures you posted of Kasey, Sandra she is gorgeous. I'm so sorry that your mom isn't being supportive. It does help to have supportive family and friends. My friends seemed to have forgotten about me and Kate. In the…"
Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen R.'s discussion Do you ever feel like your pain from the sadness of losing your child, only intensifies as times goes by? in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"Hi Karen, I haven't gotten that feeling of "peace" yet either, and I doubt I ever will. How can a mother bury her child and get over it? Sometimes I feel as if I'm like an animal locked in a cage being tortured,…"
Kathy Martibello - Stieff replied to Karen R.'s discussion Do you ever feel like your pain from the sadness of losing your child, only intensifies as times goes by? in the group Missing my Son or Daughter"Hi All, I definitely feel that the pain of losing my Kate just gets worse as time goes by. She was 19 and I lost her in a car accident over 2 years ago. People kept telling me it will get easier, but I know that it won't. She was my only child…"

I do find that the only comfort I get is from Gods word the Bible.
I look forward to this:
Revelation 21:4 — And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning…"
Kimberly Hamilton commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Hello All,
I am so sorry for you all. And I know how you feel. I have been going through crisis and I want so bad to talk to Mom and ask her what I should do. I feel so stupid being a 50 yr old woman wanting her Mother. But I know there is nothing I…"

Helping young children remember
My mom died suddenly on April 6, 2013. My 2 1/2 year old son and her simply ADORED each other. He lit up for her differently than he did for anyone else, and vice versa. I cannot adequately describe how much they loved each other, and how much I loved seeing it. My second son, who she will never meet, is due July 1.I am very bitter and sad that my children won't know this amazing woman. I know that because of his young age when she died, my oldest son probably won't remember her or how much…See More

Teresa Dimitri commented on Karen's group Missing my Son or Daughter"Vansanthi I do the same thing. I look for him even though I know I won't find him. I call his phone even though I know he won't answer. I asked God everyday, "Please just give him back.""

Vasanthi S commented on Karen's group Missing my Son or Daughter"Milt,I so totally understand what you are saying. My son too used to have a bike and later his car.
