Daughter was Killed


19 years ago 0 15 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
hi! bcricket I have lost two children myself a 3yr old in 1998 and a baby daughter in 8th august 2005 so that's not so long ago and still very raw,I will not say the usual how sorry Iam as I know that it doesn't matter how many times people say it it doesn't change or alter the way we feel,but they have your best interests at heart,I can say however from my loss of my son in 1998 is that things will never be the same again life and situations change and that's what I had to get used to,every time we went out anywhere we felt we were forgetting something or leaving something behind. I never saw the future as anything but doom,but after a while things started to pick up and life eventually got better,we still get a little depressed around his birthday xmas that sort of thing and wonder what he may have been like.but it will get brighter. The other thing is loosing a baby that was 40 wks plus ready to be born in the world and she was stillborn,now coping with 1 death of a child but 2 its unbearable, I,m not telling you this to make you feel bad or worse about yourself or your situation I'm telling you because I care and understand 100 percent of how you feel and how you you can't deal with your emotions. I know that you may have been torn between heaven and earth just like me,I chose earth even though it was a tough decision as I had other children that needed me. Loosing my baby has left a different impact on my life,not just left me feeling empty and daughterless but anxiety symptoms as well which I never had before so it has effected me differently. do you understand what I'm saying,I'm not good with words I mean things in a good way please don't be offended. my love to you and your family iqon

I am deeply sorry about the loss of your daughter. My sympathy is with you and I wish you all the best in getting better. Think about all the good memories of her..and try hard not to think about the sad times.

How are you doing these days? I was concerned about you and I hope you will be able to pass through this dark time in your life. I just wanted you to know I was thinking about you...Love,

Sorry to hear about your daughter. If you ever want to hear about what the Bible says about the condition of the dead...where we are all going eventually...please let me know. It is very comforting.

My thoughts and feelings are with you but it sounds like you are good hands in regards to your Doctors treatment. I can't imagine anythin in life being much worse than the loss of a child. Kenny

My daughter was killed 2 1/2 years ago in an auto accident which I cameup on. I have had therapy since that day. Last month was her birthday. The 3rd one since she died. I have been suffering from a major deppression episode now for about 8 week. Don't quite know how to make this one better. I take lexapro, and ritalin. My doctor has changed my dosage 3 times in the last 8 weeks. I do feel some better. She now is suggesting EDMR therapy because I still have flashbacks of that day.
