...See more I miss the time when people wrote letters. The time and effort of writing a letter is beautiful. Didnt matter if it was a post card or a 5 page letter. Someone took the time to find paper. Maybe even a oretty pen, some folded it in a special way, the time to write it out, find a envelope, a stamp. Putting it in thr mailbox and waiting and watching. Getting a reply was such a warm feeling. I miss writing letters. I remember once i got a letter from someone i didnt know. They were in prison. He just wanted someone to write to him, to tell him about their day. He had no one. Picked my address out of a phone book at random. We wrote to eachother for over 2 years. Then one day the letters just stopped. I never found out why, but was gratefuk to have gotten the chance to know him. I wish i stikl received handwritten letters. It always made my day.

...See more Today i had to go to my 4 year olds school for fire and ems day. The kids got to check oht the fire truck and ambulance. On the side of the ambulance it said Rileys children hospital it takes strength. It took everything I had no to cry in front of my kid and all the other children and parents. That's where my daughter died. I lost her on April 1 Easter morning 2018. My son, he died October 30, 2018. It's been *** here lately. I've been struggling. I can't seem to feel anything except pain. And I'm so damn tired. I'm so tired. I feel like calling it quits to be honest. I don't want this pain anymore. I don't want this grief. I'm just tired

...See more There are no words that describe a parent that loses a child. The pain is almost unbearable. Time freezes. The world slows down or speeds up. Your left standing still. Every breath is painful. Every thought bears the weight of 1,000,000. As time goes on, people expect you to go back to normal. At first it's impossible. But slowly you learn to put on a smile. You start to laugh. And even though your smiling laughing having fun. The pain is still there. Just as intense as it was when it happened. It never goes away. That's how I feel today. Everyday...
How to get the fight back.

...See more I'm here because I'm hurting. I've been silently hurting for over 5 years now. I learned to bury my pain within me. The end of October marks 5 years since I lost my son. This past March marked 5 years since I lost my daughter. Me and the father just recently split. Now I'm struggling to figure out how to handle the upcoming anniversary. And I can't seem to bury the pain anymore.
