Laurie- you just made me remember that day's after my Desiree' died our landline rang. There was absolutely nothing to identify name or number on the phone display. This has never happened before nor since her passing. I felt very strongly that it was in fact my baby girl. I had forgotten that call until reading your post. Thank you for the memory.

I pray God's walk with all of us thru this season, carry us if He must.

Hug's to everyone

Yes, beautiful Laurie and what you wrote Vasanthi is beautiful. I too believe that it is a great tribute to our sons to live on with a purpose. Although it doesn't take the pain away, I will not allow myself to become bitter at the world. I feel like I am being stabbed in the heart, but I want to be able to do something good with all this pain to honor Taylor. Hugs to all!

Beautiful Laurie...

This 23rd it will be 3 years that Shreyas or Micky as I call him left me grappling with a new reality. Everyday I battle sorrow which lies heavy on my heart. i try not to cry but the tears flow. Sometime I laugh at the jokes I remember or his gentle teasing and sweet smile. 

I draw strength from the fact that you all are there on this same path and that I am not alone.I read what is said here and marvel at the courage. I know how crippling is this blow. I tell myself to get to the meaning behind this and take strength in the scriptures and books and teachings of holy souls who mastered the art of living through pain and happiness with equanimity. 

I will try my level best to find this key that unlocks this riddle of life. I will because that is the best tribute I can pay to the wonderful soul who came as my own for such a short time.

Davi, the first night my son had passed I received a text message, It said

"Thanks...Jesse"

The text message was in the line where the phone number or contact name usually is...and there was no phone number attached. This has never happened before or after that date.

thank you to everyone for your kind words on Chris's birthday. I ended up sleeping most of the afternoon so that helped. Regarding signs, I do sincerely believe that our children send them to us, in order to give us some sense of comfort. I have had quite a few of them myself, and no one could dissuade me from believing that it is Chris communicating with me. I pray that others who are looking for signs or dreams receive them soon. Hugs to everyone.

Wow Marie! Really? That is just crazy, both of those things...that's amazing I am sure it is Taylor..

Same to you Davi, the text thing is crazy too, I have yet to receive any signs..I sure would like to.

It's a really hard day today, but I guess they all are - hugs to everybody.

Comment by Marie on December 18, 2014 at 10:24am

Oh I bet it was a sign! The other day I found my son's student ID in my pocket, which I usually carry in my wallet. I swear I didn't put it there. My daughter said I probably did absent mindlessly, but I don't think I did. Than last night there was a glass from a set that I bought while yard selling with my son this summer sitting on the sink, I am positive I didn't put it there either. Maybe I am going crazy, but I think they are signs too.

Hugs to you!

i have not been on in a while, i just went through my 1 year "deathaversary" of Dylan on the 7th of Dec. it was not as hard as i had been worrying about, just seems like another day without my son. I jave seen posts about dreaming about our children, i have yet to have a dream with my baby and i believe that its because i probably couldn't handle it right now. God will provide my comfort an an peace. I also want to visit a medium because the other day i received a text that i immediately took as a sign from Dylan. its the 2nd one since his death the first one came abt a week after he died it had his name and said hi, this one uad his name and said this is one of the best. they both had a link to a page that came up blank. no matter if its spam or not i will believe its my baby letting me know he's ok. Thank you to everyone on this site it has been such a huge help in letting me know my feelings no matter what they are, are normal so hugs and prayers for all here

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
