It is my first. What a thrill and what a wonderful thing. I have
privately e-mailed the "squisher" to thank her so much. I really do have a
heavy heart since this Saturday I am sponsoring a final memorial for my son
in his "home" church. I still can't believe that he is gone, but I guess
I'm going to have to accept it sooner or later.
My daughter-in-law and granddaughter and grandson, in Anaheim, CA, had a
small memorial for him out there to which all of the immediate family from
here attended, but all of the rest of the family that knew and love him, is
here in Indiana or the nearby Chicago area. Hence, the planned memorial
here in Indiana.
Everyone, hold your children close and your grandchildren, since you
never know when you might lose one of them quite unexpectedly. My son loved
the wonders of the desert, and yet it "devoured" him. How sad.
Guess I'm getting a little morbid and had better get myself moving.
Sorry to burden any of you with my sorrow. You are all a wonderful bunch of
gals and I am so happy that I have come upon this group.
Also can't thank you all enough for the "hug" that you gave me, even
thanks to those who, for one reason or another, were not able to contribute.
I know how life can get in the way of joining in. All of your hearts are in
the right place for even being willing to contribute whenever you can. I
just can't thank you all enough - those who have sent personal prayers,
cards, e-mails, and prayers expressed on the NG, those who have set up
special webpages about my son when he was missing. There is no way I can
thank any of you enough.
But I will most certainly hold dear to me the "hug" with which you
blessed me. May God bless all of you in return.

Marlys, there is no way that anyone would consider you as being morbid when
you talk about your beloved son. You can feel free to talk about him any
time with us. You're a mom who lost a child. How can anything be "normal"
after that.

If you don't feel comfortable talking on here, you can feel free to email
me. I am also emailing this message to you so you will have my "home"
email. I can't pretend to know what you are going through, but please know
I am more than willing to listen. As are most of us here, I think.

Bless you and congrats on the squishy. Lots comfort in those little bits
of woven stuff, huh?

Cindy

I got squished today as well. Great feeling isn't it. :-)

Don't ever feel morbid or sorry about writing a message about the love you
had for your son. I can't imagine the pain of losing a child.

Posting on my own post, and just realizing that I have become a sexist
in this post. I must include all the men that are part of this group also.
I really need to apologize for that. So I must refer to this group as all
of you "gals and guys".
Thanks to all of you, yet, again. God bless all.
