One of the most difficult things to understand following the death of a child – the first and most difficult thing to understand being WHY our child died and how we are going to be able to live without him – is how other people react to us. I tend to get wordy when I write, so I thought this list was very concise and to the point.
Grief: One Woman's Perspective
Perceptions on life after the death of a child
Grief: One Woman's Perspective 
I just read the original post last night on “Three is the Magic Number”.
I liked how it was straight and to the point. I have found myself being patient with others when it should be the other way around. I am planning on re-blogging this, too. I hope readers will take it to heart and not be offended at her honesty. It’s a wake up call. People want to know “if there is anything I can do”. There is. Please read this with humility and don’t be offended. It makes it worse.
Beautifully shared. Peace to you and your family in the new year.
Wow… So raw, so real. Great and concise description of what is happening to the griever. Thank you!
I lost my my boy 9 years ago today. His name also was Jason. He was 23 and was hit by a car and killed instantly on January 3 2006 while he walked back from the store. It had been only 10 minutes after he said I love you mamma and I replied with I love you boy. Talk to you tomorrow. I know finding this blog this morning was a gift from him. When I read your blog I feel as if I wrote it. Thank you so much from my broken heart. It is what I needed today. I will continue to follow for you have helped so much. Much love and have a blessed day.
Doris, I am so sorry for the death of our precious Jason. It’s truly not an easy walk even years after the death of our boys, is it? I’m thankful if anything I’ve written has been of some help.
Sending hugs…
