I’ve heard people tell others to, “let go”, “move on”, “start over”. Get this straight right now – don’t come at me with that. Honestly, “let go” – you want me to let go of my first born, my only son. Let go of the precious memories that I’ve shared with him? What good would that do? Letting go of him means also letting go of a big part of me, and then how could I ever be whole. “Move on”, oh really, do you own the space that I’m in, is my rent overdue? My son was not an old shoe to be replaced by a newer model. What would you like me to move on to? “Start over,” sure, where is the time machine that will send me back to infancy, or can I pick it up in Staples, next to the “that was easy” button? Or do you mean have another child to replace the one that I’ve lost (shaking my head)? Am I not getting up every day – do you not see me living? Honestly, none of those statements are things I need to hear, or want to hear.Continue Reading

AMEN!! To all of that!! I agree 100%, I've been told that as well, I lost my only 16year old son, 9 years ago February 7th, and let me tell you, I will not let go, move on pretend that he never exsisted!! ABSOLUTELY not, and I never will!! The difference is God helps me THROUGH, not under, not over but through the pain, through not physically seeing him everyday, through !! Amen
