First off let me say although I havent been able to post lately, I still read and think of you all every day. Things have been so stressful and I just havent had the words to help anyone.
Anyways, I have to vent. This site has taught me to be compassionate to others in the same shoes, to encourage others to talk about thier kids, to try to help even if I need help myself. So we have a new gal here at work. I heard thru the grapvine that she too lost a child, so when I had the opprotunity to talk with her I asked her about it and encouraged her to talk. She was aware that I too lost a child, and seemed releived to talk about her loss. I asked all the right questions, even asked her to see a pic of her son (she lost him 12 yrs ago.) I also hoped to share about my loss. Anyways she never asked ONE question, and even incinuated that her loss was worse than mine cuz my kid was at fault for her death(MVA), and her kid was not. I am still at work and visibly upset now, and she still comes up when she has a chance to talk more about her son, yet cuts me off if I mention Jess. I am beyond words as to how a person in OUR shoes can be like this to one of thier own. I dunno, I guess I hoped to find someone to share with, but I just dont think she is going to be that person. Thank GOD none of you are like this. I guess this site wouldnt exsist if everyone was like that. OK. Done whining. Love you all. Brenda
