well my husband admitted to changing my password he said he was just concerned about my mental health, how sweet. well still no news from my wonderful family it doesn't matter. i had a good day today. i had chels in the er last night she has a really bad viral infection and she's really sick so i left work to take her and we were there have the night so i didn't go back to work she is still throwing up poor baby. i got up this morning and i ran all day got her prescription and i probably never mentioned it but last friday i went in to where kelly works and they had put out a can for donations and the amount of money that they got, to me was unbelievable and i appreciated it so much. so i wrote a thank you letter and put it in a frame and took it up there today for them to put out. i also made a 8 x 10 of him sort of a collage, it was nice.then i put a pink umbrella (yes pink he was going through this pink stage and no he was not gay) and i put it over his picture that i made at his grave it's nice. people have been over to bring flowers and letters, that makes me feel good. at kellys calling hours chels picked out a bunch of songs but the one that seemed to stand out the most was you can stand under my umbrella by riana(? spelling) he loved that song so of all the songs we played that has been labeled kellys song alot of people wrote on his my space how everytime they hear that song it makes them think of him, so i got a text written on his picture that says you can stand under my umbrella. it's nice, paul and i scrubbed carpets tonight we started in kellys room we straightened it up and cleaned the carpet, i haven;t got rid of anything and i won't for a long time. i miss kelly like crazy still but i do believe that i will see him again i told paul it would be nice if i could just pretend that he was away at college, but he's not but i thought yesterday about how maybe heaven is they way we were supposed to live so maybe to us death seems like the end but maybe it's really the beginning maybe death is the bridge that we have to cross to get to where we should of been all along. well i hope everyone is doing the best they can

I think all that you have done for Kelly is great. I hope you are able to remember alot of good memories even through the grief. Take care and keep doing what you are doing.
I have found people in general do not want to talk to me about Bonnie, they do not want to upset me. Something like you sent to Kelly\'s work lets people let you know they are thinking of him. Its wonderful.
I so agree with you. I too believe death is a beginning not an ending. Oh, and my son Matt loves pink and his girlfriend thinks it\'s a hoot. Lots of pink, Jake\'s mom, Kathy
My husband loves pink too. I also believe that death is the beginning and not an end. My son went from life to life. the hard part is that i am not in his life at the moment.
Blessings and hugs

I agree with you,thinking of death like the end is like thinking of the horizon as the end of the ocean.It is just as far as we can see, there is sooooo much more out there.He is so close to you.In the begining it can be hard to feel due to the grief.I think its great you wearing his shoes! I also think its understandable to dream or wish in some way that you could pretend he\'s only off at college.I think this fanatasy is something lots of grieving parents go through all different ways to try to find a way to make the unbearable bearable. I am praying for you my sweet friend. Love and hugs, Kate
