I'm glad you've found glow in the woods to be a comforting sort of place. I too wish Liam could have breathed the outside air.. I suppose we could have managed it, but we just didn't think of it at the time. Such a lovely way to say goodbye... xo Thank you so, so much for sharing such powerful, thoughtful, graceful words with us. I’m glad you’ve found glow in the woods to be a comforting sort of place.

I'm glad you found the 'glow in the woods' site -- what a lovely idea. I wish our society new how to accept and acknowledge grief. And I hope you know that with me, you always 'belong', Tiff. Sending hugs and warm thoughts your way. Oh, I cannot believe those women got up and moved away from you — absolutely soulless! I’m glad you found the ‘glow in the woods’ site — what a lovely idea.

My MIL lost a twin when she was carrying her younger son, and still seems to have put a timeline on how long you're allowed to grieve. Maybe it's just a different grief reaction, who knows. But it sucks anyway when someone you're thinking would be a support just walks off leaving you to hold up this giant weight.

I'd sit so close that our shoulders would touch and I'd cry with you. Once I had a mom tell me that she didn't think doctors cried. This one does. I'm so sorry for your loss. I never have lost a child but lost many patients and it still hurts that I couldn't do anything. When I remember those sweet little children I pray for strength. For them and for me.

"When people insinuate that I am over protective of Ivy because I lost William it hurts." Boy, do I get that. Those grim stares when I say "be careful" for the millionth time in 5 minutes, the ones that seem to say, "poor kid, her mom is just totally around the bend." They have no clue of fear really is. I just read William's story, and I'm just so horribly sorry. I wish we could've taken Maddy outside under the stars when we she went.
