update
Hello my dear SOTHS,
Just wanted to say hello and tell you that I have been in touch with my former coworker Cathy. As you know, her sensitive, handsome son Ryan passed away suddenly in March. I sent a card before Easter to let her know I would be thinking of her on Easter - it was the first holiday without Ryan physically here. The week after Easter Cathy called and we talked for quite a while. She is doing as well as expected and has returned to work. I am meeting her at work next week and taking her to lunch. I will give her some books that helped me and tell her about FMO.
Thank you for your positive thoughts and prayers for Cathy and her family.
Love and peace, Linda ♡

You are a huge support for Cathy, taking her hand and walking this difficult road with her. Lots of loving hugs to you and Cathy!! xxx
I cannot think of anyone I would want more in my corner than YOU dearest Linda. Your ability to be a tender heart with ears and to be able to say, "Me too" will be such a healing gift for Cathy.
I am always SO sorry when I know that another sister of the heart is on this path and know that if I had not had all my soth here, I'm not sure where I might BE today.
Let her know she has a community of sisters who will hear her heart when and if she desires to join us.
Love to Ed's mom from Douglas and me,

I agree with Joanie, you have been such a blessing to me with your kind, thoughtful words and sharing from your heart that Cathy will truly be blessed to have you in her corner.
I hope at some time she will come here so we can surround her with love, understanding and "me too's".....
Sending hugs and love to Ed's mom!! from Jennifer's mom
Linda, this is so kind and sweet of you. I, too, am sorry that another Mom is on this terrible journey. You have always been so sweet and kind to me and I truly do appreciate your friendship.
Love and hugs to you and your precious Eddie from Nell and Jeff
you are awesome... ! love you!
Fantastic. You will be such a help for her. Please let her know that there are a lot of moms here who really understand and care.
Hugs, Marlene
Always this almost need for us to try to help other grieving moms touches and amazes me... I'm so glad for your friend that you are there for her. People do all kinds of things in honor of their children's memory... so perhaps this reaching back... the stepping stones are our memorial to our children... Hugs Elissa
You have a very tender heart. It helps our healing when we help others on the twisting path.
big hugs
