Giving Up The Ghost

[ibgrace]

I threw away the rest of my sons clothes after 7 years....It still broke me to pieces..I stood there holding a pair of pants and crying for 10 mins but I got it done...You would think after this long of a time I wouldn't get thrown back so easy but anything even the smells of certain foods, blueberries or popcorn and there I go again...At least now the clothes aren't in there haunting me so I feel like I took a big step.....

Wow! Congratulations for continuing to take steps forward. that had to be incredibly difficult and full of many different emotions. I am glad that you can be proud of yourself. Be extra kind to yourself in the next days.

That is a huge step! I've not been in your shoes and can't begin to imagine the emotional turmoil. Take good care of you.

Thanks for the post ibgrace.
That is a big step in your healing and being able to move forward with you life. I have no kids so I have no experience put as a parent. I do have as a sibling and watching how my Mom and Dad dealt with loosing their son. It took them a long time to move forward but they did. You are I my thoughts today.
Peace be safe
