Julie I can relate, my daughter was shot execution style on November 16, 2007, and although she has been died two years it still feels like the first day. You literally have to take it moment by moment. The pain will never go away but it will become bareable. The only thing that has allowed me to cope is my belief in the Lord, and remembering the 23rd Psalms. I miss her so much because we were best friends, we would talk for hours on the telephone. She was a beautiful young lady who had just started nursing school. Her daughter was in the house and was found laying on top of her mother, I was not able to see her until recently, my granddaughter reminds me of my daughter. So please hand in there and if you need someone to cry with because I still do, talk to or a shoulder to lean on I will be here for you and anyone who wants to chat for that matter. Talking about it helps a little. I am so sorry for your lost and I pray that God will comfort you during your time of sorrow.

Today is the first day of my daughter Kimberlie's death and Im having a real hard time with it. I feel like im reliving that horrible day all over again.
Kimberlie was born with cerebral palsy but she was the best thing that ever happened in my life. I cleaned myself up from drugs and alcohol because of her. She was such a happy girl, always smiling and happy to see her mommy and daddy and of course her big sister. I was very lucky with Kimberlie because usually children with cerebral palsy have a lot of medical issues,but not Kimberlie. No, she was hardly ever sick except for the occasional cold here and there and then one day she wasnt breathing to good so we went to the hospital and found it she had pnemonia, no big deal I thought, boy was I wrong. Next thing I knew she was getting tubes shoved down her throat and put on a ventilatior. 2 days later she had to get a trach. Doctor then sat her dad and me down and told us her lungs had collapsed and there was nothing else they could do for her and it would be just a matter of time. Her dad and I decided not to put her through anything more and we shut off her machine and 9 days later she died. I sat by her bed day andnight holding her hand and stroking her hair praying for a miracle and it never came. I miss her so much and Im wondering when does it get easier???

Wow what a morning. You never know when or what things are going to hit you. Driving to work this morning I passed an accident, it wasn't a motorcycle one like my son's, just a car but pretty banged up and there was an ambulance there. I immediately burst into tears and cried all the way to work.

Hello everyone I have some good news to share with you all. After Bronda-Maye got killed I thought I would never be a grandma boy was I wrong on that one. I just found out my son is going to be a daddy in June. If it's a girl her middle name will be Maye in honor of my Bronda.
So I have something to look forward to I just wish Bronda was here to share in spoiling her nephew or niece. But I know she will be looking down on it. She has two babies to take care of in heaven her two little brothers or sisters as I lost two babies after I had Bronda. She was my miracle child I had cancer before I got preg with her and the Dr's told me I wouldn't carry her full term but we both fooled them. Bronda was a much wanted child and I cried when I found out I was having a baby from being so happy. But God blessed us with her for such a short time. Some people aren't that lucky. I have a sister that lost a baby at a month old and have another sister who lost a son at 21 yrs old. That just made our bond even closer as sisters as we know what the other one feels.
I am praying for everyone here that we will make it threw this with Gods help. And we have this site that can help us all so much.
