It's here...sigh

Yes, the grief monster has arrived. I haven't the energy to post how I'm feeling at the moment. My grief is raw today - like I've gone back in time and the doctor is saying, "your baby has died".

My head and eyes ache from crying. Just waiting for it to pass...for this visit to be over. I'm sure I'll have more to say later. Bryan turns 10 in two months...ten...((deep sigh)).

weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
Psalm 30:5b

Thanks Keziah ((hugs)). How funny that you would reference Job, I'd just finished reading the entire book when I saw your comment. Thank you!

The Grief Monster...yep, that's a good name for it. I recently lost my 16 mo old son, Gus, and just earlier today while I was giving blood that monster visited me. The tech just patted me on the back while I cried...and gave blood...sheesh! I think it was all the medical stuff around me that triggered the monster. I am thankful that everyone just let me cry....you just have to lean into the pain don't you? I've bookmarked your blog and will be back to read more....thanks for sharing.

Hi Blair

I just wanted to say hello and sorry for the loss of your son, http://www.atih.com" target="_blank">Bryan .

September 28 was our son's birth /death day of four years ago . Tanner was also stillborn and had the cord wrapped around his neck three times too .

I read your story and I also knew right away when they didn't hear a heart beat that he was gone .

The anxiety before his birthday is overwhelming even with it being four years. The only difference now is that I can inhale more oxygen into my lungs.

I would love for you to visit www.justacloudaway.com when you have a chance . Still to this day I make new discoveries, all revolving around Tanner's passing .

This is the month for our angels

peace, love and hugs from above
Diana

I am sorry for your loss. Know that there are others like you. I myself lost a 5-month old son. It can be very trying just to cope with life's little things when you are feeling so sad. It helps to talk about it and I prefer groups where there is some back and forth.

I wanted to recommend this Respectance Group to you:
www.respectance.com/group/The-Grieving-Process/" rel="nofollow">www.respectance.com/group/The-Grieving-Process/">www.respectance.com/group/The-Grieving-Process/" rel="nofollow">www.respectance.com/group/The-Grieving-Process/

It has helped me a lot, especially when the "monster" visits.

I'll also be back to your blog - you are a wonderful writer.
God bless,
Marie
