Hi Jimbo, you are so right about talking being helpful to both! I'm not a support group type of person, but in this case, I've been reaching out to people a lot instead of withdrawing inside myself. I still find myself faltering when it comes to knowing what to say to someone else who's lost someone though.  I try hard but sometimes I have to be honest and say I don't really know what to say...but I can listen. I can do that much.

sorry to hear that red everyone deals with grief in there own way i don't think any one way is the right way each to there own i guess
one thing i do know is that losing a child hurt much more than losing my mom who at least had some life
you don't come into this world expecting to carry your child's coffin to the grave its against the natural order of things some how
but you do expect to one day have to bury your grandparents and parents
it something that you expect to happen one day its more acceptable some how of course this does not in any way make it hurt any less but it seems to go with the natural process of life and death as i know it
when my Natasha died i needed to talk to other parents that had lost children to see some how that they survived the tragedy and learned to live again gave me some hope some how, and when i have talked to other poor souls that have lost their children it made me feel better some how knowing that I'd helped these poor people over the greatest loss life can throw at them
