As hard as it has been, I just keep wondering how one could go on if it was their child that was gone. As much as I can't understand your total pain, I have just been sick thinking about the what if's - what if it were my child not my dad that we were planning a funeral for. You have been in my prayers. I hope you get the help you are seeking. I am oddly at peace with my dad's passing, which is bizarre to even say. I think I am just so grateful that it was not one of my kids. I'm rambling - sorry. Just know that there are so many of us out here that still think of you and pray for your family often. You are not forgotten.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11988590894638135312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255951012222677498.post-12359017713106277092010-08-19T14:53:46.449-04:002010-08-19T14:53:46.449-04:00You are in our families prayers.

There are going to be so many many hard days ahead and you will find a way to get throught them the best you can.<br /><br />Thinking of you today and praying that the 2 of you find the strength to continue down this very very difficult road.

We saw him 2x a week the first year, 1x a week the second and now we are at every other week.<br /><br />I cannot tell you how much it has helped us. I hope that you benefit 1/2 as much as we did.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />TrishaTrisha Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02426915708825675793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255951012222677498.post-20901846999021474252010-08-12T16:17:35.169-04:002010-08-12T16:17:35.169-04:00Sorry about the hassle with the insurance.

Insurance companies and mental health are a sore subject with me. For most people it is not even covered...you have to ask for the coverage. Sometimes going out of network is the only option...you might have to fight for it, and you might have to pay for it, but sometimes it is what you need to do. Sadly. :(<br /><br />Give Paul our love. I am late sending birthday cards, but we will see you all in a few days.

Know that this mom here in Nebraska often holds you and your family close in my thoughts. While we have never met I feel that I have come to know you and your family through your words. I wish I knew words that you might find some comfort in, unfortunately I know there are none.<br /><br />My mom died earlier this summer, I know that my lose can not even compare to the pain of loosing a child. One of the things that I heard at one of the funerals I went to this summer (we have lost a total of 5 relatives this summer alone) was the many "faces" of death. How at times death can be like the face of angels singing and at times the face of death is that of a robber. In many ways it is through the face of angels that I see my mom's passing while I can only imagine that you see the face of a robber when you think of the face of death where your sweet Carly was concerned. For that I am sorry.<br /><br />Again know that I think of you often and wish there were words that I might share to help ease your pain.<br /><br />I hope that as all the "firsts" pass this year your "seconds" come with less pain.<br /><br />DaniDaninoreply@blogger.com
