My Forever Angel

Losing a child is the hardest thing in the world. You feel like a part of your heart is ripped out. Your soul is gone. The life you created has been snatched away. You feel empty inside. Grief has you in its grip mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Food is no longer appetizing, or you're over eating. You don't want to pray. The trust in God is gone. Faith feels more painful. You've cut yourself off from the very people in your home. Let's not even discuss family and friends. Healing takes time, and it doesn't happen overnight. There's a hole in your heart that heals with a scar. Grief is a long winded battle. You're fighting with wings that are damp and heavy from tears. Each day is a new fight; sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. Let's start to win more than lose. Let's start the journey to healing.
