Well Christmas is coming and my heart is so heavy. I had a difficult time Thanksgiving but now I just feel people cannot grasp I still daily grieve the loss of my child. Not that I do not function but they just cannot grasp and understand my broken heart. I guess I need to understand them more. My niece let into me and said: they want to help me and I told her just love me. I don't discuss anything with family for they have moved on. I really hold to my faith and ask God to get me through each day so I can function and live a life worthy. I know my son understands my yearning to hear that voice or get that special hug. I was reading over comments and I pray for each of you. We as parents must support one another and just understand that we will have that void and hurt till we are reunite with our children.

Hello Mary,
you're welcome...anytime I can ease the pain for just one moment for someone else then I'm happy, we're all here for each other, if it's to offer words of comfort, encouragement or just to listen...it means so much to me to know that I'm not alone in this awful struggle of life without my baby and that you all are willing to listen to me as well....Mary stay strong and call on me anytime night/day.....hugs to you as well.

Hello Mary, first let me say how sorry I am for the lost of your son. I lost my son Mark A.Ashley at the hands of another on March 30, 2009 and it's been a long hard road. I want to thank you for the words of encouragement, they mean a lot. I was just reading your profile and am sorry that your family feel you should be over your grief by know. I hear a lot of that from our friends on this site and as hurtful as it is that's what they believe. What some family and friends don't understand and will never understand is that we as parents who have lost a child/children will never get over grieving for them. They have not experience the heartache, pain, sorrow, misery, etc, we face each and every day of our lives without our precious babies. They don't understand we've lost apart of our very soul a void which can never be filled, this will never go away. So Mary, when you need to talk about your baby don't hesitate to call on me or anyone of your Legacy family members. May God bless you and give you the strength to get through each day. I will keep you in my heart and prayers. Mary, I want you to put your hands around yourself and squeeze real tight....you have just been hugged by me.
Love Janice,
Thank you but it is by God's grace I hope. I am weak and He is the strong one. I know in time we will all gather and be reunited with our children...Hugz Mary
