At 7:39am on December 2, 2011, Terri - Autumn's Mom said…: Teresa,

I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful grand baby. It's just so hard to wrap your mind around why they are taken so young.

It will be one year on December 6 that I lost my oldest child and only daughter. I bought a candle to light on that day.

As a grandmother, I know my mom struggles a lot with losing my daughter. My mom lost my brother in 1982 and she has said losing my brother was the worst thing imaginable, until we lost Autumn. I'm assuming not wanting me to feel the pain she had felt when she lost my brother, plus she and Autumn were very close.

I think sometimes people focus so much on the parents of the child and the child's siblings, that they forget the grandparents.

I feel for you and the whole situation surrounding losing your little
Skylie.

I'm sending hugs your way and I will be thinking of you on Sunday.

And yes I am selfish too 1 more day 1 more hug 1 more......you must live on and share her story. People want to hear ESP how we all repaired our fractured lives. Did we become big brothers or sisters. Did we foster did we adopt.did we help at schools sit down and figure out you r new path

You're right, I wish I had more memories. And yours, being so little, so innocent, so precious, my heart goes out to you. We all feel your pain. Hugs to you. Paula

I know that does not help your pain, but we have to forgive ourselves for what happened Skyle loves you still and you will see that one day. We do not know why we lost them, one day maybe we will... I so know your pain.. God Bless.

You did nothing to cause, and you could not have prevented this from happening, please know this is true and forgive yourself. Skylie would not want you hurting so and there is no blame in things that happen like this.. they just do. So very sorry Hugs...

At 11:47am on March 11, 2011, Tami said…: Teresa, Please call someone, I dont like you saying "before I slit my wrists" it makes me want to run to you! You did all that you could do, we all wish things were different but we cant change a thing, harming yourself wont make it any better, If you need to talk to someone here is a number 1-800-273-8255 This is a number that you can call just to talk out your feelings, PLEASE call it if you feel overwhelmed, I know I do all the time and just need to talk. We are all here for you at all times, you can let out all of your feelings. I'm not judging you , I just want to make sure you aren't going to harm yourself, there is so much love here for you.

At 11:39am on March 9, 2011, Tami said…: Teresa, you can write whatever you want here, nobody will judge you, if they do then they shouldnt be on this site... This site was opened so that we could let out all of our feelings, especially the ones we cant let out to others that have no clue what we are going through.

At 9:11pm on January 20, 2011, Jodi said…: Thank you for your kind words, Teresa. It is devastating to lose a grandchild. We lost our second granddaughter, Ruth, when our daughter was 5 1/2 months pregnant. We got to spend some precious hours with her. She was a perfect, beautiful baby. I can't imagine losing your grandbaby when she was almost a year old. We have two other granddaughters and they and our two remaining children are the reasons we get up every day after losing Garrett. I keep telling myself that it's God's plan and someday we will understand, but for now we just have to face every day. Keeping you and yours in my thoughts and prayers!

She is a beuatiful girl, Im so sorry for your loss how is your daughter and son in law doing with all of this i hope you all are comforting each other, we just lost our 17 year old son nov 19th and found out yesterday the air bag is what killed him.

At 5:07pm on June 17, 2010, Diana Sanchez said…: Teresa, I am so very sorry that you are feeling so much pain. Know that you are not alone. When I was told that my 21 year old beautiful boy had been shot and killed, I tried to take my life that evening. After that I thought that there was no way I could continue to live without my only son. But somehow I have made it almost 7 months now. I can't call it living but at least I get up and go through the motions. There are times that I actually laugh and there are a few moments during the day that I don't think about him. We will always feel this horrible pain and emptiness but I have the hope that things will get better for us. God bless you and give you strength.
