I am so sorry. I still find it shocking that he is gone.[/quote]

PP I am very sorry for you and your loss of your 3-year-old. That must be a difficult milestone, when they have been gone longer than they were alive. I still find all of this shocking, too. Don't know if it will ever seem real. ((hugs))

----------------------------------

I hope all of you know how incredibly helpful you have been to me. I've read and cherished every post dozens of times.

I have never done anything like this. I was feeling at the lowest of my despair and just poured it all into writing and sent it out there.

Like a message in a bottle, slipped into a vast ocean.

To see how many cared enough to say even a simple "I'm so sorry" is more moving than you may be able to imagine.

People sometimes scoff at others here who reach out to "total strangers on an anonymous message board", but I guess once in a while it can result in a perfect storm of compassion. At least it did this time.

The best thing, to me, that happened in this thread is that I read of other mothers actually hugging their children today as a result of reading this. This didn't change a thing in my life, yet it lifted my heart and made me smile. Being able to say that in the midst of all this is just awesome.

We are moving her to hospice tomorrow. You have all given me the strength to continue ministering to her. Thank you again.[/quote]
