I am a teacher, golfer, sing in choir, sail, camp...just enjoy the outdoors...my passion. I have 2 cats of my own and I inherited my daughter's 2 cats.

When I see the list of what you like to do, it is quite obvious that you are a giving person. If I could do one thing for you, it would be give you the self-strengh to know that you have much to give. I know that after Ian's death I couldn't even imagine how I could ever fill the hole in my heart. There was no one thing, so I had to find several things. Some I tried I would quickly learn I could not do but some did help. Please believe that you are meant to continue! Give, give, give and you will be blessed in return and your daughter will be pleased and proud! HUGS - Nadine

I’m With You
Thank you for your friendship. I'm with you that it is different for those of us that lost an only child. Then sometimes when I read what other mother's on FMO write about what their surviving children are going through I wonder if I could have dealt with that. Let's just say, no matter what the circumstances, losing a child just plain sucks! Take care, BE SAFE --- Hugs, Nadine

Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ChildI am a single mother, and also a high school teacher. My only child, Alicia, was accidentally killed in a tragic hiking accident in Colorado on July 22, 2006. She was hiking with relatives when a young man on the trail above her accidentally dislodged some rocks. They hit her in the head and she was killed instantly. I have no family left to speak of, no husband, no grandchildren, nothing.
Treatments
- Crying Somewhat Helpful
- It relieves the pressure inside
- Grief Counseling Not Working
- They don't do anything. They just listen.
- Prayer Working / Worked
- Prayer and my faith are all that sustain me.
Close Endometriosis
I was diagnosed with endo when I was 20 years old. I was told that I had to have a total hysterectomy. Long story short: I did not. I was blessed with one child (who has since been killed). I finally had my total hysterectomy but I still have endo!
Treatments
- Laser Surgery Working / Worked
- Definitely works!
- Progesterone Somewhat Helpful
- Lupron Somewhat Helpful
- bad side effects hot flashes
