"my life is so diminished, but i will try to live my life as a legacy to my wonderful boy."
8:00am
Balloon Release Mood
Sunday, November 1, 2009 | A General Update story

 

Thank all of you wonderful, beautiful ladies for your thoughts, prayers and support as I experienced my son, Troy's first anniversary of his death. I appreciate all the notes and support I received from you all. All of your kindness made the day a little more gentle. We had the balloon release and then my sister from Tucson helped me make some of Troy's favorite foods, lasagna, Reubens and my mom's taco recipe. It was a bittersweet day. I did all right in front of everyone. I was so glad that the wonderful people in Troy's life took time to honor him and remember the good times. Thank you for letting me talk about my precious son to you all. love, donna

    Good for you! I'm sure it was difficult to say the least, yet you were able to turn the day into something positive and beautiful. Give yourself a nice pat on the back! Hugs - BE SAFE - Nadine

    I am so pleased the day had some positives. It is such a hard time. I love to hear about all the sons and daughters of mothers on DS. It helps to keep them with us. Love Charlotte.

    I am so glad that you were able to find comfort and peace among family on that bittersweet day. Unfortunately for me, I do not have family that would support me in such way but I will find comfort and peace within myself as we all must ultimately do. I face my son's first Angel Date later this month. Love and peace to you as you face the next years to come. Belinda
