[COLOR=#ff0000][COLOR=#003366]The purpose of this blog is to immortalize my son because it is my responsibility to make sure people remember him. Unfortunately, when you die, life goes on and you are soon forgotten. It just happens. People forget. [/COLOR][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#003366]Unless there is a parent or friend to remind people that you once existed, no one will remember. People don't mean to forget, but life happens and memories fade. It is up to us to keep their memories alive. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=#000080][COLOR=#009900][COLOR=#003366]I also have started this blog in the hope of helping others. Helping by being there for newly bereaved parents, heeding the call of suicide, and lending support to those experiencing a hard time in life at this moment. Taylor died young because his soul was fully developed, he had to die to pass on his message of hope and love. His death has taught us all many lessons and we hope to teach you what we have learned about when it comes to the afterlife.[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR]


[COLOR=#003366]No one understands unless they have personally experienced the loss of a child. It's like how no one can understand how much you can possibly love another human being until you actually have your own child. It's like that, only in reverse- because as wonderful as it is to experience the love of a child, experiencing the loss of one is even more profound.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#003366]Feel free to PM me as I am willing to help you through your grief. I've been there, I am there, and I can hold your hand and hold you up while you begin this bumpy ride. [/COLOR]

What is normal after your child dies - Part 2

Posted 09-09-2008 at 10:02 AM by londonbarcelona (What's it really like to have a child die???)

[COLOR=#0000ff]Normal is my heart warming and yet sinking at the sight of something special Taylor loved. Thinking how he would love it, but how he is not here to enjoy it.

Normal is having some people afraid to mention my son, Taylor.
Normal is making sure that others remember him.

Normal is after the funeral is over everyone else goes on with their lives, but we continue to grieve our loss forever.

Normal is weeks, months, and years after the initial...

What is normal after your child dies -

Posted 09-09-2008 at 10:00 AM by londonbarcelona (What's it really like to have a child die???)

[COLOR=#0000ff]Normal is taking pills, and trying not to cry all day, because you know your mental health depends on it.

Normal is realizing you do cry everyday.

Normal is being impatient with everything and everyone but someone stricken with grief over the loss of their child.

Normal is sitting at the computer crying, sharing how you feel with chat buddies who have also lost a child.
Normal is not listening to people make excuses for
G-d....

What is normal after your child dies - Conclusion

Posted 09-09-2008 at 09:59 AM by londonbarcelona (What's it really like to have a child die???)

[COLOR=#0000ff]Normal is wondering this time whether you are going to say you have two children or one child, because you will never see this person again and it is not worth explaining that Taylor is dead. [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0000ff]And yet when you say you have one child to avoid that problem, you feel horrible as if you have betrayed the dead child. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=#0000ff]Normal is asking G-d why he took your child's life instead of yours and asking if there even is a G-d. [/COLOR]...
