Our loved ones are safe and happy....it's us that struggle to find life again. I too pray that one day I can be more like the person I was before I lost Aiden. I know I'll never be the same but I hope I can get that excitement for life back. I'll be thinking of you and Juju tomorrow.

That ...Who says you're not a fantastic writer!? That was an excellent post. In most cases, I felt sorry for those that have died-- in our babies cases, I feel sorry for us. In that story, sorry for the husband/father. But in that case Brooke mentioned of the 20-year-old girl, I feel sorry for everyone. She lived a life, albeit a short one, and knew all she would never come to experience in her life. No college, career, marriage, children. It's just plain painful all around.B.

In my previous (personal) experience with loss, I've always felt more sympathy for the people left behind. The only dead people I really knew were those who had lived long, full lives, and for whom death was often a release after illness. But then a few years ago, I went to the funeral of my best friend's cousin--a 20 year old girl who died from cystic fibrosis. That was the first time I ever felt sorrier for the person who died than the people who were left behind, because that girl was all too aware that her time was limited and she knew exactly what she was missing out on. It was heartbreaking and unfair. <br /><br />I agree with you about our babies though--we are the ones who are hurting and they are the ones who are okay. Although I wish they were leading full and happy lives on earth, I find some comfort in the idea that they never had to be afraid. They never felt a moment of fear or loneliness or grief. Unfortunately, we're left to battle those emotions without them.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05946311309467296976noreply@blogger.com
