MDJunction to me

"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)

Hello Family!! I just want to say that as you know I am grieving for my mother who passed away about 2 weeks ago. I am to start sessions with a Grief Counsler This Monday.

I don't know what to say except it is good to share the love that you had with your beloved one who passed on. She will always be with me, in my heart, my memories. So find someone you can talk with, about how you are feeling, and share your love with those who support you, even another person who is grieving, who understands. It's good to cry, I still cry, every day,

I love you!

Life is a mystery. It is a gift.
Don't dare miss even a moment of it.
Yesterday was a lesson, today is a prayer,
Tomorrow would mean nothing,

I certainly agree with you Frenchie. How are things going so far? I am still in a place where its very hard for me to talk about my mother. I barely get a line out before I start to chock up. I come from a very silly and sarcastic family and its very hard to not joke around as much with my father and sister who both seem to be handling much the way I do.

Please let us know what insight your counselor provides. I hope she can provide you some comfort. But you're absolutely right about finding someone to talk to and letting yourself cry. Thanks for the positive post Frenchie!

Take care of yourself!

I will tell all of you what insights my grief counselorgives me and I will share with all of you!

I am hanging in there, it hit me pretty hard today as I unpacked a suitcase of valuable possesions that she had for me. One item is believe it or not, A CRYSTAL CANDLESTICK THAT WAS PRESIDENT TAFT'S!

ONE HE KEPT AT HIS BEDSIDE. i EVEN HAVE THE OFFICIAL LETTERS ABOUT IT THAT DADDY RECIEVED BEFORE HE DIED. ooops! didn't mean to look like I was screaming, I'm sorry.

I keep a big stone she painted for me as a child and it sais: I AM YOUR ROCK. And she was, truley she was.

Thanks for your loving support, I will be here often to keep you updated. I love you!!!!!!
