I AM INCREDIBLY grateful for the support I have had.. I have some amazing people in my life.. too many to list here.. some people have that one person.. some people have two or three, as you can see below some have no one. Even through tragedy I am blessed. Thank you all.
Immediately following the loss of a child there seems to be a lot of support -- cards, food, phone calls, visits. However, within just a few short weeks, this type of support tapers off to almost nothing and that's when families of loss need support even more! When the reality of the loss settles in, the pain the heart feels is difficult to explain. It is a screaming, crying, sobbing, throbbing pain that makes us feel like we can't breathe and we can't get through another minute. If only others understood how important it is to offer support weeks and months (and years) following child loss! Some days feel unbearable! May God bless each family of child loss with special moments of peace today.
