A place for grief and healing after the loss of a child

If you are friends or family of ours, please do not be offended that I didn't share this site with you. You are more than welcome to stay, read and participate, but be aware that somethings said here are not directed at you. While some of the posts and comments might be uncomfortable for you, remember the purpose of this site: It's dealing with My pain and My Grief that you just can't understand until you lose one of your own. I know you want to help ease my pain (and you have in many ways) but there will always be burdens you can't help me with, so I turn to my fellow bereaved.
Peace,

Sleep Well My Sweet
We miss you you beyond words. Today should have been so different.
My wife and I lost our beautiful little Olivia in Aug '09 to a rare genetic disease called Alagille Syndrome. We blogged about her battle with this condition at oliviahuelsbergen.blogspot.com , but since her death it just didn't feel right to continue blogging there. This new blog will hopefully let us express some of the difficult emotions and thoughts that accompany the loss of a child - no matter what age. Hopefully it will provide other grieving parents some comfort that they are not alone.
It should have been so different. I am sorry that today is a painful empty shadow of what it should have been for you.
ReplyDeleteRemembering Olivia with you. She is sleeping in heavenly peace.
May you know peace too
Hoping you found some peace during your first Christmas missing Olivia. Sending you hugs.
