I'm so glad you joined in on all the fun! :)<br /><br />...thanks also for sharing this story about what it's like to grieve for your son. I am so sorry for your loss, and so sorry for Nancy's loss as well. I am so glad that crafting--and the connections made through it--brings a measure of comfort to you both.Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15252216547396900733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8665458853535361912.post-84668560945439467512011-05-01T14:12:08.497+01:002011-05-01T14:12:08.497+01:00Shaz, my heart and prayers go out to you each time...Shaz, my heart and prayers go out to you each time I visit your blog and see your beautiful son's picture.

She was my best friend, a special needs & medically fragile child whom I spent almost every minute with her whole life. I cried with her, laughed with her, sang with her, fought for her, and went through everything with her. She went through 5 heart surgeries, 2 strokes, was blind and paralyzed for awhile post surgery, I had to teach her everything twice due to strokes. I sat up with her most nights helping her for the last 10+ years. She wasn't expected to survive childhood due to her heart defects but she showed them - she lived to be 22 yrs old... but due to strokes and lack of oxygen she was at a level of a 7 yr old. She was my little girl for 22 yrs. I have 3 sons but she was my only girl and I miss her terribly. <br /><br />Even though I knew for 14 yrs that she was not going to survive her heart defects, it's still a shock and hard to really believe that she's gone... it seems like she should be in her bedroom waiting for me to go and take care of her, or maybe she's at the hospital (where she "lived" for so many years. I hate that I had to go to the cemetery on Easter to be near her. <br /><br />I've been having a harder time lately and your post made me realize that someone else really does understand! One of my sisters understands too because she buried her son just 2 years before my daughter died. Her son was 17 and had battled brain cancer for 2 yrs. I still can't believe that two of us siblings have buried children. It just seems so unfair that one family has to go through so much. <br /><br />I, too, craft and blog hop to de-stress! I just joined MTME's sketch team and found you through them! We are sorta working together. *grin!* <br /><br />If you would like to, please email me privately. My email is on my profile.
