Sadly, there are so many new members. I’m truly sorry for you loss. Still, I’m glad you found your way here.

This morning I want to reach out to all of you.

I’m reposting a March link that expressed my thanks for the support and help this board gave me during my first month of unimaginable loss. This song perfectly expresses how I see this group and what we are to each other.

I hope that you’ll find some small comfort in the knowledge that you are no longer alone as you struggle with your grief.

So beautifully said. I think above all else Knowing that I was not alone brought me the most comfort.

I agree with bayoured! I realized I was not alone, and what I was experiencing was not abnormal but all part of the greiving process. Jax, I've got the Dr pepper.

Beautiful.... not being alone is also what has helped me so much. Living in a small town and having very limited resources in the way of grief counseling was and has been a scary thing. The continence of our every changing grief is a ride I would never want to take alone. I will help any one in any way I can just as I continue to be helped. I am so blessed to have found such a caring group.

Hugs to all
