I've been thinking of everyone from this site and since it's been a little quiet, I wanted to share some thoughts with you. For all on here who have lost a child on here, please know that although I do not understand the emotions involved when losing a child to suicide, I 'do' understand the indescribable pain of child loss. And, if there is any way that I can be of help, I am here for you. The struggles are many and especially in the early years and writing it down, getting it out for others to read, does help. It helps to know that you are not alone and that others understand and are willing to listen, lend a hand and offer their heart!
For our other members, jazzgirl (Brother), Renee (Dad) and FireballKid (Sister) please know the same above applies. I am here for you all.
I've been told that it's difficult sharing some of the content (as it relates to how their loved one took their life) due to the very sensitive nature and others fear upsetting another. I feel it's vital to learning how to survive in this world after such a traumatic loss to be able to express these feelings and the reason we have this site set up for suicide loss.
If anyone has any suggestions concerning these thoughts I've shared, please contact me and together we can work on making any changes that will aid in others feeling more comfortable discussing what they so desperately need to.
I love and care for you all,
Terry
