"The reality is that we don't forget, move on,
and have closure, but rather we honor, we remember and incorporate our deceased children and siblings into our lives in a new way. In fact,
keeping memories of your loved one alive in your mind and heart is an important part of your healing journey."
~ Harriet Schiff, The
Bereaved Parent
It's midnight: the day is over. Today was my daughter's 9th angelversary. As always, my day is spent in sort of a haze, with bloodshot eyes and crying at the very memory of her. Jayle is with her father, so I called her on the phone because I had to hear her voice. Somehow listening to her brings me comfort; she sounds so much like her mother! She acts, walks, eats, and does almost everything like her mother. Oh, what a blessing it is to have her near, to know she is a part of my baby that will forever remind me of my daughter. What a blessing that is!
