Do try to take care of you too. I know how hard that is. But Timmy would want that. He is very joyful right now and he would want you to remember him with fond memories. I have boxes of Alicia’s things in my basement…and I simply must go through them and give them away. It is silly to hang onto them. But part of us thinks if we hang onto the things, that we still have them right here. And we do…but not through their things…but in our hearts. Thinking of Alicia this morning, my thoughts turned to this: “There is an infinite hole in your place”. I am sure that rings true for you too when you think of Timmy. God bless you.

You said it so well, my friend. I always tell people there is a hole in my heart and gut where Jamie used to be. So very true,...another set of parents going through what we have, and I have 2 new friends on DS just yesterday (both suicides)--Where is it going to end?? God Bless you, Hon, for reaching out, I know it is not easy! Love you, Judy

There is that hole in our hearts but I try to tell myself that Michael fills that place now. I carry him inside me once again. My heart is the only place that I can find him. Bless you for reaching out to someone who has, all too soon, joined our journey. Love, Belinda

Beautifully put. You are so right - our memories that we hold so close to our heart can never be taken away & their stuff are just "things" that won't bring them back no matter how hard we try or how long we hold on to them. I will also keep Timmy's family in my prayers as they begin what we already know is a long & painful journey. Hugs, Ann
