Jeff had read or heard somewhere that when you see the sun's rays in the sky, that those rays are the souls of the departed ascending into heaven. Such a comforting thought.

Grief You don't get over it, you just get through it. You don't get by it, because you can't get around it. It doesn't "get better", it just gets different. Every day ........ grief puts on a new face. -----Wendy Ferguson

I am not even sure how I found your Blog, but it grabbed me and took hold of me. I have spent many hours reading your entries and I can not even phathom your pain. I have 2 children of my own, a son 21, & a daughter 16. While I was reading, I broke down in tears and my heart sank with grief for you and Jeff. Seems as if my dog Katie felt your pain and my sadness. As I sat crying in my computer chair she jumped in my lap and licked my tears.
I normally do not post like this but, your story has really made an impact on me. So, I felt compelled to write & let you know how sorry I am for your loss. I am not sure how you can move on from day to day. I'm not sure I could do it. I am proud of you!
Please know that I am thinking of you and praying for some ray of hope your pain might be eased in someway.
May God Bless You & Yours!
Lisa & Katie
Lisa, thank you so much for writing to me, I can't tell you much it meant. When I go back and look at all that I had written I can see why it took hours!! Not many people have the patience to do that.
I feel bad that I made you cry but it shows your compassion. I am glad you had Katie there to comfort you, what a geat dog. It is amazing how animals sense our moods when we are sad and ill.
I had read once from somewhere in a TCF newsletter that we ourselves don't know how we survive after losing a child, we can only take one day at a time. I never thought that the intensity of pain I had gone through would ever go away, I never thought I would smile or laugh again but with time I have learned to do those things and start to live again. Paul stays in my heart and memory always, I think of him everyday and there are times when I talk to him too.
Thank you again for your thoughts and prayers and may God bless you and your family too.
Karen
