      How wonderful! It seems to help us so much when they 'visit' on the special days. Some of the pain is eased, if only for a while, and it helps us to go on, doesn't it? xoxo Barbara

    • I’m With You

      From grndmudder May 6

      I am Peggy, and I am glad to have you as a new friend. I lost my youngest son April3.2003 to an accidental drug overdose. His name was Paul ,he was 29. DEC 10, 2007 , my only other child, my 38 yr old son took his own life. He never recovered from his little brothers death. He had surrvivors guilt. Steven thought he should have died before his "baby brother" because he had been the older son. Shortly after Steven's memorial service, his half sister (same fathers I was his mom but not hers.) H+karla also took her own life, because she blamed herself for not helping Steven enough. She was a beautiful smiling girl,Karla was 33. Paul left a daughter who is now 16, and her sister is 11. Steven left a son, now 21 (married and a newborn son) and a daughter now 15.Karla had a daughter, now 16 and a daughter 8. I am married to James, the love of my life, and my best friend. He has been my sainity along with the grand kids.I still cry and I get depressed. I am struggling right now with Mothers Day. I believe God and prayer have saved me fron the darkness of grief, and I still believe in love and hope. I am so sorry you lost your son so suddenley. I also pray your daughter can beat the drugs. I am here if you need to talk or to vent your anger, or just want to know about my experience. I know you are so hurt and so sad, and No words can help you. We are never going to be who we used to be, or have the life we used to have, but you can put a few of the pieces back together, and you can smile again, and have a diffrent life. I try to focus on all I have left, and not just what I lost. I am with you, and I have a hand for you to hold. Here on DS we have a family of people that love and care. We are supported and we support each other as well. Together we are stronger than we were alone. My prayers and love peggy
