carolynne said… Martine, I'm so very sorry for the loss that brings you here, but glad you've found us. I saw your comment on Celestia's page....I am only at 10 months, but I am already getting an idea of how our grief changes day to day, week to week, month to month...you get my point. I think 10 years will look a lot different than 1 or 2 or 5. My hope is that someday, maybe by the 10 year mark, I can remember Rodney with a smile instead of torrential tears. But no....we will NEVER forget, they will NEVER leave us, of this I am quite sure. Grieving in 10 years? Of course. Surviving and perhaps even thriving? Yes, also a matter of course. (((hugs))) I hope to get to know you better. I am honored to walk this journey alongside you.

In the beginning I just read the blogs and posts and lurked in chat. Post and join us in chat when you feel comfortable. It is nice to be among people who "Get It".
