About Me
Lost my only child in a hiking accident on July 22, 2006. She was almost 27 years old. She was my life and my reason for living. I have no one else. 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. Please visit Always missing my daughter Alicia (http://www.onetruemedia.com/otm_site/view_shared?p=4f71fbc7a29fa87782e118&skin_id=601&utm_source=otm&utm_medium=email) for a beautiful memorial to her. To light a candle for our angels, go to my journal July 17, 2008 and click on the candle.

thank you, i sent your entry out to my hospice group and the coordinator wrote back and said she was going to make a copy and pass it out. i also am so sad lately.
i just think a sadness permeates our lives. our lives so diminished with the loss of our blessed children. thank you for allowing me to share your thoughts with my group. love, donna -
Hug
thank you for the hug. you are right. we ache for our children as well as our old life. and you are right, we just have to not let people get to us who do not know how to be sympathetic. and i too did not know how to be truly sympathetic until my Troy passed. please take care of yourself. love, donna

Support Groups
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
