Child Loss / Re: Some Things I Hated to Hear…ADD YOURS!
« on: April 12, 2007, 12:38:01 PM »
I think people tend to forget that no one needs or wants someone to tell them how to think or feel.
Many comments that are no-no's for someone to say to someone else, I may say to myself and believe them for myself in my situation. Many of the comments are healing when I say them to myself, but it is no one else's place to say these things to those who are grieving.
Good comments:
"I'm sorry for your pain."
"I'm sorry; I can't imagine what you are going through."
"I don't know what to say, but I care."
And always, there is silence and a look of love or a hug... Love says it all; it doesn't need words.
Peace and love to all,
Lori, Alex's mom

I'm sitting here at work too, unable to do a job that I used to love. Wondering if my energy will ever come back for it.
I'm going away for the weekend. Need to get out of town. Not even sure if I'll be able to enjoy myself - but going anyway. Saying prayers of thanks for my best friend who is willing to put up with my "nothingness."
My prayers and love to you all...
Lori, Alex's mom

Child Loss / Re: I'm tired of the pain... How do you do it?
« on: February 25, 2007, 07:51:11 AM »
I'm so angry. I'm so angry that I have to live with this pain. I actually woke up this morning and said outloud (to no one): "I hate my fucking life!" I'm tired of being sad. I'm tired of crying. I'm tired of pretending that everything's okay.
I'm snapping at people for the smallest things. I love my job but right now I'm not doing too well because I'm snapping about everything. If I didn't love my job, I would have put myself in the hospital Friday night. I'm living in a pig sty and can't get myself to clean it up. Everything I read says to be gentle with myself and to take care of myself. I'm not doing it. I can't find the will to do it. I am literally surviving and right now I don't want to do it.

Child Loss / I'm tired of the pain... How do you do it?
« on: February 24, 2007, 05:31:10 PM »
I'm so new at this. And I'm already so tired of the pain. Last night I actually felt suicidal - because I just want the pain to stop.
I guess I now have an idea of how my son felt most of the time.
I won't do it. I have too many people who would be destroyed if I did. But still I wish I could stop the pain, and I don't know how to handle it.
How do you do it?
