Hello Shelly, I was just reading through some of the member's profile and I came across yours and saw your beautiful daughter. What you posted about the "THE PRETTY WHITE DRESS" was so profound. I am so sorry, so sorry for us all who have to endure this pain. My heart hurts with yours, I'm sorry that I have no comforting words to offer but I wanted to extend my condolences. I have often said that in a "PERFECT" world, no one would ever come to know such pain, no one would suffer the loss of their child, there would be no death or pain of any sort. Unfortunately, we don't live in such a world. The only thing that helps is having the support from others who unfortunately no what I'm feeling or have a pretty good idea. She will always be your daughter and you will always be her mom....that will NEVER change or be diminished. She had a life and her life mattered. Sending you many hugs.
Shelly, I am still here and still thinking of you and your beautiful precious daughter,I hope you are doing ok.. I think of you offen even though we dont really know eachother.... your daughters beautiful eyes have captured my heart.
Thinking about you.
Shelly... You are not alone.Your daughter is looking out for you, I know it, I can feel it.,Talk to her, Love her... she is not all the way gone.The body is just a shell to hold what really makes us us. The shell is gone but the soul remains with loved ones until it is time to meet again. .. You are not alone,my heart is also with you.
Praying you find peace,
Jodi
Hi Again Shelly,
It's been a little over 2 weeks since my son died and I am feeling a little better but the nights are so hard for me. We used to watch a show or a movie before we went to bed and now there is nothing but quiet and I hate it and I dont know what to do with myself now.You are lucky that you have other children to make you happy and help you heal. Try to let go of the guilt that you werent there, I believe that it would have happened anyway because we all have a time to go no matter where we are or what we are doing. At the time my son lay dying I had just turned out my lights to go to bed..hows that for guilt?..it will drive us crazy if we let it..just try to think of the beautiful day that we will be with our children again instead if you can.
Hi Shelly,
What a lovely girl your daughter is. I know you miss her alot and it is a hole that can never be filled, at least thats how it feels to me,like there is a hole where my heart used to be. Please pray that my son Jesse be let into the kingdom of heaven. I will pray for you and your daughter as well although your daughter looks like an angel already.
Hi Shelly,
I am sad to hear about your daughter and hope that you can find a way to lessen the pain, what is working for me if finding out who my son was when he wasnt with me. Any time you would like to talk you can reach me at JSLD68@aol.com
