Happy Birthday, Niles! Grace, peace to you on this bittersweet day.

Janie I am so sorry.  Forgive me for not acknowledging you.  It breaks my heart every time someone new comes into the group.  If I could take away everyone's pain I would.  

Michael has been gone for 19 months yet I feel like I've been crying forever.

Eva, Michelle is right it is always so difficult to welcome someone new to the group.  It seems crazy to say "welcome" under these circumstances, however, WELCOME. I hope you can find the comfort and support that I have been able to receive from others.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NILES!!!!!

Eva, it's always so sad to see a new parent on this site. It means that someone else is feeling the worst pain there is: the loss of a precious child. I hope you find the friendship, comfort, and consolation here, as we all know what that experience is like. There are some kind, compassionate people here to support you. "Welcome" seems trite, but I'll say it anyway: welcome.

My daughter passed away March 17th 2014 in a single car accident...she was 24...married with 3 beautiful little girls. I don't want her to be gone. I got to tell her everyday I loved her...I was blessed with a beautiful, caring, wonderful child. I still cannot wrap my head around the fact she is gone. I keep expecting a phone call, a text, her voice announcing herself in my home.

Dear Janie I am so so sorry for your loss. Your son is a very handsome young man. I also lost my son at age 17 on Dec 1, 2012.

It must have been a very difficult year for you and your family awaiting the autopsy report and then to still have no answers. I hope you can find some support and comfort here.

DSCF4047.JPG I am a single mother of 2 boys who are 18 months a part and very close. We are a close family and have always done everything together just the 3 of us.

I lost my 17 year old son, Tyler Lane Budro, on March 10,2013 to an unknown illness. He was 17 years old and a junior at Hull Daisetta High School. He was sent home from school sick on Tuesday February 19 and went to the doctor that day. They did a mono test and gave him antibiotics. The next day he wasn't any better so he was taken to the doctor again. He received an antibiotic shot and more medicine. On the next day, Thursday, he felt better and ate really good. Friday, February 22, his girlfriend came to check on him and she left him at 1:45 and my dad came home at 4 and found him on the floor. He had been having seizures and was not responsive. He was taken to the ER in Beaumont, TX and was transferred to Pediatric ICU at Memorial Herman hospital in Houston. They were not able to stop him from having seizures and he was put into a medical induced coma to slow down brain activity. Most of his skull was removed to allow room for his brain to swell. They ran test after test to try and find out what was wrong with him, but the only thing he ever tested positive for was mono. After 16 days in ICU we lost him on March 10, 2013, the day before his brothers 16th birthday. It took 10 months before the autopsy was completed and another month to get the report, but they still didn't find anything.

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
