Hello Darren I am so sorry for your loss. I never wrote the story about my son. though he was as vibrant as your britt. your story touched me and I am so sorry for your beautiful daughters passing. I am crying as i write this because i know that forever like you I will be without my beautiful son. The menengitis thing is horrible. I read a story on line here since i have been searching for whatever i am searching for after such a tragedy. where the childs arms had to be amputated. and the child died anyway from meningitis. It was horrible and I have told my husband we need to get her shot matter of fact we need to get one for my son also. he is getting ready for college. People need to know just like if she had gotten it. she would be here. I asked the doctor about it and he said his kids get it before college. have you gotten your other children it.? you know side affects and such. I don't know if my son would like me on here. I don't think he would so I try not to talk about him too specifically. but i love him and miss him and it has changed the whole course of my life my mind has nothing but him on it. and what could i have done. i am just tormenting myself because i can do nothing now. so sorry peace be with you and me and all the other parents of lovely children we love so dearly. carrie L
Hi Darren - hope you're doing as well as can be expected! It's tough to know how to say 'hope you're doing ok' isn't it??
I've reported 'Cynthia' and hopefully she'll be blocked quickly. You can block her from your page as well - sadly there are some people out there with no scruples at all, why target a site like this? Oh well, there's no telling is there!
Take care Gail
Hey Darren - i lost my Mom in April. She was my rock and best friend. It was also sudden and I'm sorry you're going through this. Your daughter was beautiful and, it seems, very loved.
My heart goes out to you Darren. My daughter (33 years young and my only child) died in a senseless, tragic accident in Alaska where she lived. I live in Texas. It happened one year ago yesterday...
This website was a godsend for me. Share as much or as little information as you wish. Please consider posting some photos of Brittany. When I posted pictures of my daughter it was in a sense part of my healing process.
Take care.

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
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

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
