Tears have soaked my pillow since that dreaded night,
Longing to have you next to me and in my sight.
Sometimes the only thing I can do is breathe,
And cry and shout and mourn and grieve!
Your baby girl asks me questions that I sometimes don't have the answers to,
But for me I just have to keep pushing through!
Your big girl often points to that special star at night,
And for me it's the glow of the burning candle light.
The girls and I are missing you so much,
Your gentle ways and your soft caressing touch!
I have applied the make up over my tear soaked cheeks,
And I can't believe it's only been seven weeks!
I know that someday we will be together,
But for now we carry you in our hearts forever!
So for now dear daddy, loving husband and friend up above,
We send kisses and wishes and all of our love!

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
