THANKS GUYS
I was looking at the posts in the SIDS group again and some people were saying that they didnt feel that they got the support they needed or what not. But I want to say this....When my son passed I wanted to curl up in a corner and die. After I found this site, I learned from many of you. I was able to see that life does "go on" after this. I saw that it is okay to be happy and that it is okay to be sad. You all have offered such great advice but most importantly you have offered me HONESTY!!! I know that I am not ALONE and that there are people that can support me even if they are total strangers. Through my tragedy I have gained an extended family and I am SO THANKFUL for all of you!!!

Aww...thanks honey, I feel the same way. I was lost when Ari first passed away, I didn\'t know how to talk to and just felt so alone. When I found this site, I felt like I found a safety zone, I can talk to anyone about anything, and I now know that my feelings and emotions aren\'t strange or weird...they are \"normal\" I feel like I don\'t fit in anymore, anywhere I go, I just feel outof place, except for here...we are a family..a family who have all gone thru the same pain and agony..we are a SIDS family.
I think we all remember what it is like to be new to this. I have only been on this site since December. It hasn\'t been a year yet since I have even lost Nick. I feel like an old timer here. This site has saved me too in soooooo many ways I can\'t even start to explain. I am so sorry that you had to find us because I know it means one less baby in this world. I am glad you found us though because no one should have to go through this alone. Know we are here for you sweety!
And we\'re thankful for you! Hugs
I am glad you were able to find what you needed. This site is amazing and has been a great source of encouragement when I couldn\'t find any anywhere else.
I love this site too. It was a lifesaver for me the first few months, when I really felt like I was going crazy. Sorry you have to be here, but I\'m glad you found us.
