It makes me feel like you babblers really care about me, well at a lot of you anyway, some don't like me and want me to eat sh*t, but that is okay, not everyone can like you.
But for the ones who truly care, I hope to be there for you too. In fact I am thinking I would like to exchange emails and have a private group, it is getting harder to feel safe here, but I don't want to lose any of my friends, but perhaps a smaller group would be nice, one that is off the public boards and search engines.Maybe limit the members too. Then it could be more private, and I would even be more inclined to be more personal about therapy and daily struggles. What do you think? Babble me if you are interested, or I might babble you if you have it turned on. Or if you know where would be a good place, yahoo egroups?IT meant so much to me, words cannot express how moved I am am at such an outpouring of love and support. Times like these you really learn who your real friends are. Even though I haven't met you in person, I still feel close to you as a friend and that feels so comforting. Someday I hope we can all meet.
I have received lots of caring babblemails, that I haven't had a change to even respond to, I still plan to doing that. Please give me some time.
The funeral I was okay, until the speeches and my other stepdaughter wrote a song to sing. That brought most of us to tears. One touching thing they did at the grave site, was they let each parent let a dove go. That was really beautiful while my other stepdaughter sang, Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
Glad to be home now, I am feeling better from my kidney infection, I think the new antibodics are working.But I am feeling a little angry today too. Some things are annoying me right now. I have truely learned a lesson about people today. I can't go into details, but you know some people are just mean, unforgiving, and I just care to know them. The world has wonderful caring people, and it just isn't worth getting upset over those few who are self serving. Losing an infant has to be one of the toughest thing for anyone to endure, and today I saw what real caring is.
But sometimes there are just *ssh*l*s in this world, but I am not going to let them take me down. I have had enough sh*t in my life, and those who don't accept me can bite a big one especially my husbands ex wife. I think I need a nap now. I am taking Thanksgiving off this year, I am not up to cooking for 30 people. Thanks again!
With love your friend,
Happyflower

(((((((((((((((((Happyflower) I know this has been tough, the funeral, your brother, your health, it is so much and the fact that you are already here because you have things you need to deal with. I am glad you got through the funeral. It sounded beautiful and so touching. I know in time when the pain is not so raw each of you will be able to share how much it meant to give Baby Lia such a special memorial and tribute. Although she was here on Earth a short time she touched many lives including us here on Babble. Thanks for sharing her with us!!!
I hope you take time for yourself to grieve all your losses and to heal. it is alot to take in. Don't try to be the strong one. Just be you and let it flow and you will be ok.
I really care that you take care of yourself in all this. Try not to let those that are unkind get to you now when you are so hurt just shield yourself from those crappy people. Take care, rk

HappyFlower,
I have been away and then sick - so I'm just now catching up...I wanted to offer my condolences.
I'm saddened at Lia's passing but the funeral sounds like it was beautiful and touching. I hope you and her parents take comfort from that and from knowing that God will keep her safe. So much love for one little baby is very special.
I think you deserve to take Thanksgiving off and keep it low key. Take care.
Daisy

I'm glad you are taking Thanksgiving off. I'm trying to really low key it because I usually go all out, but this year I'm just not up to it. We have out of town company (plus several in town guests), but it's always fun. Ver little tension except between my husband and mother, but all in all it's my favorite holiday of the year. But my doctor says to take it easy and I'm going to.
Take care of youself. You know you can't take care of others (your children, I mean) without taking care of yourself first.
