Wishing everyone some peace and blessings today. One thing I am grateful for -  that we are all so very fortunate to have had the beautiful souls who are our children, in our lives for how ever long we had them. Although the pain is so very hard to endure, it is better than to never have had them at all. Their spirits will be with us today and forever more. Happy Thanksgiving in heaven to my sweet angel Daniel and to all of your special angels as well. I hold you all in my heart and am sending you lots of love and hope.

A friend sent me a post today that I'd like to share...

"You don't have to be thankful,
You just have to survive."

Wishing you a peaceful Thanksgiving Day.

Hugs to all here...

Thank you Lynn. I have to hear that this pain does ease up, even if just a little. I think i must hear those words in order to survive. Hugs to all.

Love and peace to all here. This is the third year Kyra has not asked for my stuffing recipe, it was her favorite holiday. It is still so hard not to have her physical presence in our lives, but the pain has so eased from the first. I am thankful for everyone here who supported me that first year and continue to. Everyone's comments help me know I am not alone. To Nadin, I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter we can all put ourselves in your shoes living minute to minute. We will all be here for you. Connie sending hugs to you and your husband and I will say a prayer for Daniel.

Nadin, I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious daughter. Please know you are not alone in your grief. You and your family are in my prayers. One second at a time. Deep breaths. I have hit my knees and asked for help so many times. I hope you can feel all of us here sending you hugs and prayers. Hold on. I know we would all do anything to have our kids with us again. What I wouldn't give to have one more hour with my son, Zach. Life can be so unfair at times. So thankful that I had the 23 years with Zach that I did. Love and miss you every day son.

Nadin I don't know what to say except we are hear to listen. You can cry, scream, yell whatever you need to do. We are here.

It will be a year December 7th that I lost my precious son. Thank goodness for my youngest son as he keeps me going although he is working in a different state.
My husbands best friend just passed away at 48 years old. He drove to Sacramento, our home town for the service and help his Momma. Not only could we not afford for me to go but there is no way I could make it through his service. No way
Thanksgiving is almost here. Please let me get through it. I wasn't with Josh last year as we have traveled to be with my youngest for the holiday. It was no big deal as we would be together for Christmas. We never got Christmas together. First get through the 7th and then get through Christmas. Al least then I can go in the grocery store with out all the decorations and happy people. Love you my Joshie. We all miss you so much. WYWH

I want to thank all of you for your support and deepest feeling for this situation. I'm sorry that I didn't reply earlier because it hurts so much. I'm so glad that I found this support group because I'm unable to leave my house right now. I feel guilt towards all the people around me who wanna help but I can't let anyone in my pain right now. My greatest pain is my guilt I deal with every day since Thursday. I can't stop thinking that I could have prevented things from happening if I would have been able to see signs. My daughter must have been in such a pain to have this strength to take her life, a pain beyond anything we can imagine. I would love to take this all on me if she could come back again. I want to be strong for my other kids but I'm so broken and I don't know right now how.

Dearest Nadin, I am so sorry for the terrible tragedy you now have to endure. Like others have said, you have to take it minute by minute hour by hour day by day. We are all here to support you whenever you need it. Sending you and everyone prayers, love and hope. (((  )))

Robin, that is such great advice.  I'm only just past my first year, but I feel like you do, that you have to make the decision that you can survive it and try to be strong or you give up. I don't want to give up, I have a beautiful daughter that I'm so blessed to have. I miss my son every minute and every second of every day and I am also not the same person. I am broken and missing a part of me but I am trying and yes some days are very hard and I cry a lot and some of them are ok. This site helps me too cus we see that we are not alone in our grief. 

Nadin, I am so very very sorry to have to welcome you here. It's a horrible road we are on and only us know our pain. Nobody understands but us. You are still in shock and that pain is all consuming.  I'm so extremely sorry.

Many hugs for us all.

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
