Sending prayers for all of you, and especially for little Jacob.

I liked that poem the first time I saw it. But, with the music and images it really has a new meaning.
Thank you for sharing that with us, Randy.

I think it is wonderful that you find comfort in continuing on with all things that brought Deb such happiness.
She must be so proud of you, Randy.
Those little hummingbirds are so darn cute aren't they?

I am SO happy to hear that things are just simply falling into place for you. All this good news, you must be on top of the world!!
Now, go show them what you have in your interview and they won't be able to resist offering you a position.
Let us know how everything goes!!!

you're only as old as you feel right.......so how could it be considered lying?

I don't think any of us are stronger than you. You get the strength to carry you through when you need it.
I felt the same way you are feeling now when I realized that my Mom was taking a turn for the worse. I remember crying and thinking to myself.....I can't do this. I can't live without my Mom. But you do. You learn and you cope one day at a time. I do have regrets and things I wish I would have done differently but they are all in hindsight. I try to remind myself that I/we did the absolute best we could.
To be honest, each person is different so it would only scare you with things that my Mom went through.
I agree with everyone else here. Spend as much quality time with them as you possibly can talking!!!!
I heard from someone that you should find out their favorite song/songs. Play them and it will bring them back to that happy time. That might open up a discussion to things that you would love to know and they would love to share.

Hoping for only the best and a very quick recovery!!!

Praying for you and your Dad, Dawn. Hurry and give us the good news so Kellly can put the wazoo away. She's probably pretty winded by now!
-
Boy, you have so many decisions to make and lots to think about don't you?!!
I'm praying that you'll get great results today and it will be the beginning of many good things coming your way!!
-
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Keeping my fingers crossed for great results!!!

This post makes me sad too. You are such a big part of this place. But, how can we try to make you stay when you put it the way you have. We only want what is best for you and for you to heal and grow.
You, my friend, are going to be missed so, so much.
You mentioned angels on earth. Yes, you are right Katie and Rick are definately angels, but you forgot one more angel that I can think of.......YOU!
Hoping for only the very best for you, Don.
Warm Hugs,

I have already shared what I know to be a "sign" from my Mom. I was telling a coworker here and she asked if she had shared with me the story of the shaw and her sign from her Mom.
When she told me this story I had goosebumps. I just know that our loved ones are still here with us.
First, (the important part) her nickname growing up was Mcgillicudy.
Rox was telling me that after her Mom passed away she was going through her things with a friend. She told me her Mom loved to crochet lap sized afghans for people at nursing homes. When she was cleaning out her Moms bedroom she found a bag in her closet that had a shaw in it. Inside the bag was a note with only the word "shaw". Rox couldn't understand why her Mom would have had it in the closet. It wasn't something that her Mom would have worn.
A few days later she received a call from a woman. The woman had received the number from the nursing home. She was calling about a shaw. Here is the amazing part. The woman's name.........Mrs. Mcgillicudy. Coincidence......hmmm

Since my Mom has passed in September there have been so many times that when I go under street lights they go out. My children both can tell you that it has happened so many times we've lost count. I have told everyone that I am convinced this is how my Mom is letting me know she is still "here."
(My boyfriend seems to think I'm a little crazy because I call him when it happens)
My nieces graduation was last Saturday. I was sitting in the auditorium and was thinking to myself that I knew Mom was there with us and wondering if she could show me a sign. At the exact same time my cell phone rang. Normally I have it attached to my purse and I would have not heard it vibrate.
But, my son had it in his pocket. He answered and told me it was my boyfriend and he wanted me to call him back as soon as possible. I knew it must be something important because he knew we were at the ceremony.
I called him back and he told me that the power had been knocked out at home. He knew it had something to do with Mom. I hadn't even told him how at that same time I was asking her to show me a sign. And this was coming from the same person that had thought I was crazy when I told him about all the street lights.
He is completely convinced now that she is still here with us and I was just so happy that the sign she gave me came at the perfect time. I know in my heart she was there with us at the graduation....that gives me such comfort. I just HAD to share it with you guys!!

It has been such a short time that your Mom has passed....be easy on yourself and allow all the feelings to come as they may. It has been over 8 months for me and I am still waiting for the last month memories to fade and all the good, happy times to come shining through. I know it will happen as it will with you too. I completely understand where you are and wish there was something more I could do.

Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Katie....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU..........and MANY MORE

I know the services for your Mom have been the last few days and I'm sure you are still adjusting to what has happened....but I wanted you to know that I am thinking of you and hoping that you are doing ok.
We are here for you, Kelly.

Cheryl,
I don't know what happened, but it makes no difference.....
As Connie said no one should have to feel so alone and hurt. Especially on top of what you are already dealing with.
I'm glad you posted and I hope you will continue to come here often!
-
Oh Missy, I'm so very sorry....please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Mark,
I was just thinking about Leslie the other day when there was a new member named Leslie. I saw the signature on the post and immediately thought of your Leslie.
It is nice to see you are doing well... and welcome back

LOL..yep, it IS all about perspective

Lisa,
May you find comfort knowing that you were there to share the special journey with your Mom and that both your parents are in a very special place watching over you and your children.
The grieving forum is a good place to let out feelings and share with others what you are going through.
I hope you continue to stay with us here.
Warm Hugs,
Melinda

When I got to work today I logged on and realized that I was not the only one stuck with the overwhelming feelings of grief yesterday. There were so many feeling that huge void since losing our loved one.
I thought it might be a good idea for us to start today with a smile. Think back to a memory that you have of your loved one that you would like to share..one that brings a smile to your face and I'm sure to those that will read your post.
Anyone want to go first?

Praying for good results for your Dad.
Hang in there!
