Yet it was YESTERDAY

I am so tired. So weary. And sometimes just don't know what to do..I can not believe it will not register in my brain my heart my son will be gone 5 years Dec 30, 2014 to know again one day or week or month has passed and I have not talk, touched, joked, gone to dinner with Ken in that much time. Where did the days, months, years where did they go.  Yet it seems only yesterday we were at a mom and pops eating Pizza.  And then he has lost the ability to talk to share. then he can't move his arm, he is dragging his leg...then he collapsed and rushed to UAB. He is coded for 15 mins..he is rushed to surgery. Then 40 days he takes his last breat on this earth...how can that be almost 5 years ago when my heart exploded into a million pieces never to repair. I think how could it be almost 5 years ago as he lays in ICU not awake has not been awake. I am looking out the window hoping he can hear and shocked to see the Christmas Lights on.  How, where did these years go. I just can not understand , comprehend, can't believe the tears I have cried the journals I have written it just can not be 5 years since Ken left this world called home. How did I survive.  I don't know. My heart does not burst like fireworks as they did. How could Kenny be gone what just seems like yesterday...almost 5 years. How heavy my heart is yet I travel forward...yet I just can't imagine.....where did the minutes hours days months. Year after year. Yet it was yesterday.

Oh Sandi. I am with you. Where did the 5 years go? Lisa will be gone 5 years on December 1. Even now it seems unbelievable. But we have persevered. We have shed an ocean of tears. And we have done it together.
Love and huge hugs,

I cannot imagine what I will feel like at 5 years of not hearing my daughter\'s voice, not having lunch with her, not seeing her name on my phone but I\'m coming up on her 1st anniversary and I can barely breathe some days. It is gut wrenching pain not to have our children. To look back at the time that has passed but yet still remember that very moment when they left this earth is mind boggling to those that have not been there. I\'m there, with you.
I\'m thinking about you and praying for moments of peace ((hugs)) Vicki

impossible that all this time has passed. But at the same time, it feels like an eternity since I was able to hold and talk and hug Melissa. We do all walk this journey together and will do so until we meet again on the other side. XOXOXO

This Dec 20th will be Mike\'s 6th Angel date. Just like you where did the time go. My grandson is now 5 and in kindergarten, he was born 2/5/09 never met his dad. He is very cute but now lives near Clearwater and I do not get to see him. The twins are here every weekend because their Mom works weekends. They keep me on my toes and worn out LOL
Sending you lots of hugs

The years passing by scares me. It\'s hard for me to explain. I am 3yrs along in this journey. It feels like I am getting farther away from him. I know he is all around me but don\'t want the years to come between me and him.
