I'm so very sorry for your loss. I know that when my daughter died, people didn't know how to react or what to say, and often they didn't say anything at all for fear of saying the wrong thing. Something which helped me was to put together a collage of photos of my daughter and all the people who knew and loved her. It now hangs in my hallway and whilst some people still avoid it, other people will stop and pick out a photo or a memory to talk about. I find too that I have to mention her name myself and get people talking - some people think it's morbid but hey, she was my daughter and she lived, and she was and is a part of my life so they have to deal with that.
Take care.

Thanks for sharing a little bit about your precious angel Kat; glad she had so much love and some fun in her little life and how poignant she held on until mothers day was over - lovely photo too.

Kat, just wanted to add this link......

There are a bunch of us bereaved mums (and other relatives) there who talk most days, and who regularly talk about our beloved children as much and as often as we want. They just crop up in our normal everyday conversations. As I am sure you know, it is so nice to be able to talk about them and include them in normal life.

Anyway, I see lots of people here are offering wonderful advice and support, but I just wanted to let you know where we are if you want to come by.

Thinking of you and your beautiful little Macy. xx

Kat - Macy was a beautiful little girl. I remember seeing something about her in the local paper -she was so strong to live so long - I'm so sorry to hear of your loss.

i lost my premature son 2 yrs ago. he was 10 days old. i felt suicidal at times and didnt know how i would get through it. it was the most awful time of my life. i took anti depressants and saw a counsellor but nothing took my pain away. i recently gave birth to a gorgeous baby girl who is now 11 weeks old. i dont feel so bad as i used to. i have my good days and my bad days but when the bad days come they hit me like a truck and im down for days. everyone says time heals, i hope they are right.
