Hi again....decided to visit again and share my grief journey which
has now been 12 years since my baby son died in a car crash. He was 18
years old and driving home late at night after visiting some school
friends. The police said they think he feel asleep at the wheel of the
car and crashed it into an electrical pole-taking it completely out of
the ground. He died from his damaged his brain stem so I don't think
he suffered long but just the thought he suffered period def still
hurts. So many things are beyond our control-either as parents or ect.
It can feel even more painful if any of us didn't have the chance to
say our last goodbyes while our love ones were still alove.
So many yearly anniversaries have come and gone.
I saw this poem and wanted to share it:
MIssing You (unknown author)
I miss you now more than ever before,
But I trust that God will open a door.
And show me how to go on without you,
To give me some hope and comfort too.
For you were my life and I loved you so dear,
And it breaks my heart to not have you near.
But life goes on and I will too,
I just wish it wouldn't go on without you.
-and- always loved this saying too:
God didn't promise days without pain,
Laughter without sorrow,
Nor sun without rain.
But He DID promise strength for the day,
Comfort for the tears,
And light for the way.
(((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))
for all here that also have hurts...Jo
Wally's "forever" mom
