This is a super shitty ...Hugs to you lovely girl!! This is a super shitty road we walk, and I wish that no one ever had to know it. I'm 3 years out and there are still many days that I'm angry with the way my life is going, it's honestly not fair. I hate that others that have no clue of what we are feeling, dare to say things like "you know you can put on a smile." It takes the world to get up and function, and the fact that you do, and you try your hardest to make it through, should be enough. Just brush that person off, don't let them bother you. There will be plenty of them along this road, and you just have to brush off their ignorance, and live life for you. Hang in there, I know it's tough, but you can do it!!MandyMyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17240780404158138417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9106461808829357984.post-43832426375694531422010-10-20T23:30:42.899-04:002010-10-20T23:30:42.899-04:00Chrissy, I know we don't know each other, but ...Chrissy, I know we don't know each other, but over the past couple of days I've been reading what you write. It is incredibly unfair that Josh was taken from you. You have every single damn right to be angry. But even though he is not here with you living the life you two planned together doesn't mean he's not with you. When the sun rises, he is there. When the wind blows across your face, he is there. When a tear falls down your cheek, he is there. He is with you every step of every day. Whatever plans he had in life you can do for him. I know its not the same, but I lost my first son. I remember those last few minutes holding him in my arms, and thinking why God, why?!? We wont know that question until its our time. Its not fair and its not right. But he wants you to keep living life. Its going to be incredibly hard. Some days your not gonna want to get out of bed. But you will find the strength. You are already a strong, brave women. You just have to remind yourself, every day, every minute, and every second.....You can do this. You have too, for him. Surround yourself with family and friends. I pray for you everyday. If you ever need someone to cry with or talk to just message me. <br /><br />KRISTI WHITAKERKristi Whitakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00321738825448686612noreply@blogger.com
