Hi, I saw this and my heart nearly stopped! I lost my three yr old son, Isaac, to leukemia just over two years ago. I actually found that my grief hit me the hardest this last winter. I would love to be involved in something like this, if you get enough interest to get it going. Thanks so much for suggesting such a helpful, yet often ignored issue for moms!

Hi,

I think it's so inspirational of you to create a group like this! I'm so sorry you lost your son, I watched the pain my sister went through and still goes through till this day over the loss of her son so I can only imagine what you go through. He was 3weeks old and passed from S.I.D.S,,, I just lost my oldest and closest brother last month and even though he isn't my child I still think this group could be very helpful for me, If you feel as though I can be included I'd love to join. Please email me shannpf1977@yahoo.com once you get it up and going if I could join I'd love to. Thanks

Christa,

My heart goes out to you and Shirly (the author of this post). I could never imagine loosing one of my children. The thought of it sadens me so bad. I feel so bad for both of you, I was letting Shirley know how I had a 3week old nephew pass away, he would be 2. He died of S.I.D.S, my sisters life has changed to the fullest after his death. She thinks about him day in and day out and I try to keep her strong for her other 2 kids. Like I said, he was my nephew so I'm not sure if I would be excepted into this group but if so I do look forward to keeping intouch with you. Like I said, my nephew wasn't my child but my nephews and neices I loved just like my own so it hits home with me as well. Sorry you have to go through this hurt and pain, I truely beleive in angels and I know all the children who passed are all watching over us with their beautiful wings. Stay strong and please remember there are people here who care and will always give you a shoulder to lean on such as myself. Please let me know if you ever want to vent. Thanks

Christa, I seen your post and just had to reply. My 11 year old son, Craig made his transition from this earth 
4 years ago after being diagnosed with leukemia (ALL). I do not know how YOU feel to have lost your son but I do know how IT feels to lose a son. I am sending you the spirit of peace and comfort as we both must  carry on without our beloved sons. Blessings.

I would join a group like this. We lost our youngest son, Mason, 10 months ago now. It was a sudden death, a home accident. He was 22 months old.

I lost my infant son, Aiden, in 2004. Only other parents who've felt that excruciating loss can truly understand.  I think the group is a great idea. It's important to have connections with people who can relate. The support goes both ways.
