Thank you
My mind still does not work right so I am not sure if I posted a thank you to all or not. Either way I want everyone to know how much your postings, cards and support have meant to me and my entire family. The support of this board has been overwhelming.
I am still having a very rough time. Now I know why mourners in other countires wear black for years. Its not something that ends according to the calender.
Derek and Gregory have been gone a month now. I do want everyone to know that not all that was printed in the paper was true. My boys were wonderful and didn't deserve what happened to them. I have heard all the awful details and someday they will come out in the court room. But for now I just want to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts. With great sincerety and appreciation, Linnie and family
Hi Linnie- I'm glad you have found support on the board. I know that it has helped me when I need someone friendly to listen to me or give me some advice. Sorry to hear that your family is separated. I dont quite know what you are getting at when you said it will come out in court, but it sounds like a diffucult situation for everryone involved. Take care of yourself and good luck with everything.----Jesse
Linnie I am so glad to see you posting. I have often thought about you and have prayed you are doing okay. Knowing how good a person you are, we know that your boys were good boys. No one deserves to die the way they did, and there aren't words to express how sorry I am am, we all are- over what has happened. Please stay in touch on this board...we are always listening.
Linnie - I have found that I have never gotten over my fathers' death, I have learned how to tolerate it and live with the loss. It is a very long, slow process the path is different for everyone. I pray that you will find a place where you can find the loss of your children tolerable. It's only a month it is totally normal to have your grief be so raw and fresh - whatever "normal" is.............Keep reaching out for support, I couldn't even imagine the depth of your grief, my heart goes out to you. Did you get a chance to try that website Groww? In addition to coming here, that is a great place for support when you're grieving - they have live chat rooms and there are people there to talk to 24 hours a day 7 days a week - they are all people who have experienced the death of a loved one from all over the world.
God bless.
Tammy
Linnie:
Thank you so much for letting us know how you are.
There is no rhyme nor reason to your situation. Many times devastating turn of events cannot be explained logically. Emotions run high and can become overwhelming. I don't read the paper, but whatever the cir****tances, you have lost 2 people you loved deeply and wholly with your mama heart.
You are and will continue to be on my mind and in my prayers as your journey towards healing over and dealing with the death of both of your sons. I am only an email away if you need talk.
