/ Contact Box Generated from SurfCodes.ComTo those who say to get on with my life, I have. It is a different life, the life of a grieving mother. One with a tremendous amount to be thankful for, but also one with a lot to mourn the loss of! Do not judge the bereaved mother. She comes in many forms. She is breathing, but she is dying. She may look young, but inside she has become ancient. She smiles, but her heart sobs. She walks, she talks, she cooks, she cleans, she works, she IS, but she IS NOT, all at once. She is here, but part of her is elsewhere for eternityA child that loses a parent is an orphan, A man who loses his wife is a widower, A woman who loses her husband is a widow, however, there is no name for a parent that loses a child, for there is no word to describe such pain.Myspace Backgrounds |

I'd like to meet:My angel baby Aidan...to read about what happened to my only child, please click on "see all blog entries" and scroll right down to very first one...Aidan's grandparents, Gina and Alex, (my parents) wedding 1966 before I was born. Happier days, they both looked so happy. I miss them both (even though my Mum is still alive).My Mum Gina and my Dad Alex, when they had me in 1968. My Dad died on Oct 17th 1992 and it was the first time I really felt a bereavement. He was 64 and I was 24 and he also ended up with an Alzheimers type illness due to strokes in the brain. So I didnt really get a chance to say goodbye to him either. I had only ever been to one funeral (an uncles) before that.My Mum (Aidan's granny) Gina Craig is now 80, she has been in a care home for over 6 years suffering from vascular dementia for 8 and severe osteoporosis. Her condition worsens every year and now she is leaning to the one side, im not even sure she knows me anymore and we havent been able to communicate properly for a long time now. Family life for me consists of visiting my mum once a week and just sitting with her for an hour or so. She has no other close family left (she had 2 miscarriages after me in her early forties) :-( |
