Sometimes...MOPS was where you were supposed to be. Sometimes when humans cannot look you in the eye it is because they are afraid they will start crying too. Believe me, Rick was crying inside for you. <br />When I lost my grandmother last January. I still had to go back to her adult family home to do haircuts for the other residents. This was going to be a continuing process. Some days are worse than others. I still get a pit in my stomach every time I drive over and walk up the sidewalk.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753922795485552054.post-91894461441826325922010-10-07T04:56:04.491-07:002010-10-07T04:56:04.491-07:00(((((Hugs)))))(((((Hugs)))))Hannes hjørnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17300870738800704870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753922795485552054.post-53197128347719594762010-10-07T03:08:02.160-07:002010-10-07T03:08:02.160-07:00Sarah, you know I have been following you from the...Sarah, you know I have been following you from the day I heard of how strong you and Brad and Conner and Hunter and Baby B are... I don't have the right words, because I've never been in your situation, nor do I have the right condolences, because I've never dealt with this unimaginable loss. I think you are doing the best you can, and I think that you deserve to cry everyday if you choose to. Conner was your firstborn, and he is always there to guide you, and he will always be there to do so. You will go through so many firsts now, but you have to remember that Conner is still with you, With Jesus, watching you, and guiding you. You are a strong, eloquent woman, who has a beautiful family and you should not ever EVER worry that people who don't know your story would think negatively of you. This is why Conner's Angel's spread the word. Your story is a true story of love, faith, and hope. We love Conner, we have Faith in you, and we Hope for your Family's Future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753922795485552054.post-62645682441486412592010-10-06T23:31:32.480-07:002010-10-06T23:31:32.480-07:00You never know when you are going to fall apart, I...You never know when you are going to fall apart, I don't think that will ever change. I can look at string cheese 100 times and be fine, then the next time I see the string cheese in a different light, it brings memories of the way Libby would twirl the wrapper around and around to calm herself down, and all that tape I've put over the Libby sized whole in my heart easily starts to peel.... There are obvious triggers, like I will see oxygen and wish so bad I was the one carrying an oxygen around, or see a beautiful dress and know she would have loved it, but there are also triggers that we just dont get the fore warning. I haven't been able to find a coping mechanism for this part yet. I'm at 8 months, and I will admit some days are good now, but there still are nights of sobbing. It's become a little more balanced over time, but the pain has remained the same. We're all on this new path of learning and I think it helps to share.

It must have taken so much for you to walk into the church. I can't imagine the pain of the memories flooding back. I hope you can continue to go to MOPS because of the fellowship. I will be praying for this journey for you Sarah. My heart is aching for you. I'm not sure I could be as strong as you are but I also hate that you have to go through this.April Luythttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969031637715300262noreply@blogger.com
