First Post

I'm not ready today to share the story up to this point. I am sure it is a story that will evolve and develop over time. I am ready to say that my son has had two great days and for this I am thankful.

  2. Bristolvol, thank you. It has been validating to read the blogs of other parents. I am not crazy and I am not alone. It is good to know that.

  3. You will not be alone on here. Do what you can, take what you need, be strong, sometimes all we do is hold each other up, but sometimes that is enough.

  5. Welcome! Grab a cup of coffee (or tea) and start clicking all the blog links. You'll find much of what others are describing sounds veeerrry familiar.

  6. Nope, you're definitely not alone! I'm celebrating two good days with you. And tomorrow three, or if not, we start over and wait for the next good day. Its easier to get through the bad days with people who understand and care, because we're there too.

  8. We all know your story. We've all lived your story. That isn't to say you don't have your own unique pain, it is just that we all have had our hearts ripped out, too. The good news is that we are all still putting one foot in front of the other and we are all still breathing in and out. Together we can get through the pain. Share when you are ready.
