It lifted my spirits tremendously to understand that Joe is thought of even by those who did not know him. Thank you so much for your kind words.

Your writing is an incredible window into your soul.....Your loss as a mother is enormous and as mothers we have tasted bits of this loss as our children grow but you are dealing with the totality of it......there is no comfort in words ...I wish for you a peaceful spot in your heart where you can hold and share your love, memories and your bond with your son without the catastrophic pain.....love and connection never die.....You may not realize this, but through your blog, each one of us who reads it carries a bit of your son with us....His presence is larger than you realize.

I feel a connection with you because I know that you understand.<br />As you know, there are many bad days. I have to learn, I guess, to recognize and appreciate the peaceful moments, because they do also exist. Thank you for your book recommendations. I will definitely give them a look.

I read your post earlier today, while I was at work, and have had you on my mind all day and evening. I want to give you the peace of God, that surpasses all understanding, but I can't. Have you read Joan Didion? There are several good books, CS Lewis and "when bad things happen to good people." I found those somewhat comforting in my search.Hgarrettnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-7424757107607689952012-06-28T18:06:59.276-04:002012-06-28T18:06:59.276-04:00Thinking of you Lynda as you wrestle with these en...Thinking of you Lynda as you wrestle with these enormous emotions and eternal questions.
