      thank you Lynn...I am up and down. I see where you have suffered the same kind of loss...it is something that is so unspeakable...it seems so unreal....God be with you, too as you go through "the not knowing." love...Dale, Brandon's Mom

    • Little Love

      From Denimari October 11

      Hi sweetheart, thank you for the hug - No, for some odd reason the turmoil persists - If you saw me - You'd really hate N.J. Doing my best one day at a time - what more can I do? It's my lot in life to persevere through - I appreciate your love, support & continued prayers.

      From grndmudder October 6

      Thank you Lynn, I appreciate and still need all the prayers possible. I have made some progress, and I am better than I used to be. I have good days and still have really bad days. God sent me to DS to be helped, and to help too. I am trying to get better so other moms can see me and get hope for themselves. I have lost alot, but I am focusing as much as I can, on all I have left! I have many blessings from God, and the more I think of those, the better I can be. Thank you. Suicide is especially a hard thing to deal with. God has blessed me greatly though, in spite of my troubles,Love,Peggy
