Well Christmas has come and gon.  I missed Mark alot.  I made it through but it was not easy.  I am calmer now.  I talked to Mark's wife Marianne and she could not get out for Christmas because of the snow.  So she had to spend Christmas alone.  I felt very sad for her.  May God bless us and love us and protect all of us.

Mary ~ I missed my brother too.....he loved Christmas.....there was just something missing....

I am sorry that Marianne had to spend Christmas alone, that must have been hard for her.

Thinking of you and your family...take care of yourself.

Friday it will be on year since I last saw Mark and I have been thinking about it for days now.  Monday will be the day he died.  Yesterday I got the card out that he wrote me for Christmas and it made the tears just roll.  I can't believe he will be gone a year already.  Some days a ok and other are bad.  Thank you for your help and love.

Hi Mary ~ good to see you post.  I hope that you are well. 

I know what you are feeling....my brother's one year angel date is March 29th.  I have been dreading the day for about a month now, it seems as it approaches, I get more and more emotional.  I can't believe it's been a year! Heck, I can't even still believe that HE DIED!  :'(  Also, as almost the same as you, the last time I saw Tony will be coming shortly....like the day after tomorrow!

I am sending you strength and peace.  I will be thinking of you on Mark's angel date, and hoping that you can get though it without too much heartache, but I know that will be almost impossiable.....Take care

Well I made it through Mark's angel birthday but I am still sad.  I have been thinking alot about him and I hope God and Mark celebrated his 1st year with each other.  I am trying to move forward but it is hard.  I hope his freind were there to celebrate also.  Now I will try to get by the funeral date and I think I will make it.

You will make it, Mary....

My boyfriend always tells me "speak things into exisitance", and believe it or not, it works....I know it's easier said than done. 

I hope that you are well. 

thinking of you....

Well yesterday and today I watched videos of our family and Mark.  For the 1st time in along time I did not feel sad.  I think it was the right time to do this.  It made me reconnect with him without all the pain.  I still feel the lose but not as bad.  I hope that the people on this sight when they looked at the pictures of their loved ones They can find peace as I did this time.

Hi Mary ~ I did the same thing, not too long ago, I watched a video of Tony fishing......doing what he loved more than anything.  Although tears came to my eyes, I felt the pain in my heart easing, I suppose we are healing? 

Good to see you post and I am glad that your heart seems to be on the mend.

Well another holiday and my thoughts are with Mark who has been gone over a year and three months now.  It does not feel that long and where did the time go.  I don't know.  It is not as painful as before but I still miss him alot.  Thank you for being here so I can share what I am feeling
