@Jeff I noticed that too. I am trying to figure out what is causing it. I appreciate the heads up.

Great topic. Thanks for sharing your personal journey with grief.

Btw, noticed that your comment counter on the homepage isn't picking up the # of comments here (or on any other blogs).

if there is, i sure haven't found it yet.

i've realized this year that i grieve more than i thought i did. that even small losses impact me greatly. i just never stopped long enough to realize what i was feeling was grief.

Larry told me about “I’m Just Saying” when he came down for Aunt Rene’s birthday. He is proud of your gift of writing and communicating from your heart. I share that pride in you. It is not an easy thing to do. As I read through the responses yesterday, I realized how superficial most of our interactions with people are day to day. Of course, you can’t open your heart to just anyone. It must be someone you can trust. I just think with the business of our lives we don’t make time to do that near enough.

I’ll pass on your greeting.

@sherry,
It is so fun to see you on here. I had no idea that you knew about my blog. I shouldn’t be surprised, my dad probably sent you a print-out

I miss you guys. I hope our paths cross soon. Please send my love to all the Texas family…

Lindsey,
Several times this morning I thought I should check your blog. I am glad I responded to the nudge that I now know was from God.

My dad died in September. He was 87 and lived a long and wonderful life. He was a terrific father. There are only a few ‘why’ questions related to his cancer treatment.

His final days of life were shared with family and friends and after he died we celebrated his life. I have experienced a few misty eyed moments in the weeks and now months since. That is to be expected, I know.

After reading your post and the following responses I found myself crying and sobbing deeply and admitting to myself that I really miss Dad and it hurts.

I was surprised by the emotiions. God, of course, was not. I am humbled by a loving God who knows what we need and when we need it. I am also humbled and blessed by all who responded to your post by opening their hearts so I could open mine and receive healing.
