Although I don't know you, I have kept you in my prayers in light of your recent loss. I have to comment on what nice people frequent this site. After reading the posts in this string, it is obvious that the people on this board really do care for you and your family. Its amazing to see the outpooring of kindness and caring that has been displayed here. Although I do not know any of you it sure is refreshing to see that people like this do exist.
In terms of your loss, its been said that no-one should ever have to bury a child. I'm sorry this happened. I too am dealing with a loss although it is different from yours. It will be 39 years tomorrow that my father was killed (1.11.68- hit by a car in Illinois). I was only 10 tears old at the time, and because of the times, I was left to wrestle with the grief on my own with no professional help. It has gotten harder on me as the years have passed.
I'm sure you realize that you were lucky to have the time with Clint that you did. In my experience, the pain never goes away and certainly hasn't dulled over time. God bless you and your family and God bless all of these fine caring people who have supported you in such a fantastic and meaningful way.
