Death is never an easy thing to deal with. Even the loss of a dear pet brings much sorrow, I can't imagine terrible it must be to loose a child. Very touching post...thank you for sharing... God Bless!

I have never attempted to answer the question why when it comes to death, I have over my life lost many people who were close to me, some have died and some have moved away never to be heard from again. What one person must remember is all the times and experiances that we had while we were together. To have been able to love and care for someone is a special thing, and that makes you a special person. The pain does ease with time but even many years from now there will be times that it comes back. JUst remember that you loved them and they loved you and nothing can take that away, may you find peace and may your pain end .

angelbytheocean: No one can know the sorrow of your heart. Though you express it well. The sadness I read of in your verses break my heart for you. Loss is beyond words. For there are truly no words that convey what is lost. I pray for your pain to be eased and know that the Lord has mercy. May the light they brought to your life never dim. May you know an eternity with them when it is time. God Bless and comfort you and yours.

Robbie,
Words cannot express my admiration for you nor my deep regret for your loss. My dear sister has suffered a similar loss and I can tell you as her most loving supporter, seeking and accepting the love and comfort of others has helped her greatly.
May God continue to bless you with all the faith, love and courage to endure.
In God We Trust

Whenever I am feeling sorry for myself in some shallow
insignificant way,something like this comes along and
snaps me out of my self-pity.I wish I could bring everyone's
loved - ones back.This is so unfair for this to happen as it
is in any case that is similar.I have to ask myself ...why?
Doesn't everyone deserve a chance at a full life? Doesn't
every parent deserve to watch their children grow up?

I am sadden to say I feel your pain I loss one of my sons in 2002. I have my days of feeling so low knowing he is not here and other times I feel grateful that I got enjoy him for as long as I did. All parents are ready to die before there children and when it happens the other way around the pain is indescribable.
Your letter was beautifully written and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing it.

June 23, 2007 my Rach was murdered by her estranged husband in front of their 9 year old daughter. Ive been around alot of death. Ive seen comrades and innocent civilians killed, Ive had aquaintances commit suiide and die in accidents. Losing Rach almost did me in, I couldnt even function.She was 38 and looking forward to our new life. a little time has passed and the ache isnt as poignt but I will never have a day I dont think of her. I only share this with you because I know that ache you feel, that void.I pray you find peace and happiness knowing that your children are in heaven watching over you.

Your poem is beautifully written. I understand so well your sorrow. It's so tragic for a Mummy to see her children die. No word exists to really express this atocious suffering. I am deeply sorry...They are in the Heaven. God bless you Angelbytheocean

I,m so sorry for the loss which you incurred. The only thing I can say are the following:
1. They'll never have pain and suffering again.
2. They are looked out after in Heaven where by your ancestors.
3. It is only a temporary separation, but they want you stay here as long as possible.
Take good care of yourself!!
