Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Yes Helen, you'll heal. At your own pace. Take it from Terry - as she said she knows.

My sister was widowed when she was 39 and left to raise her 2 (young a the time) children. She'll tell you not a day goes by that she doesn't want to "kill him if he wasn't dead" for leaving her. Life goes on. Her kids are grown and married with kids of their own. Sad, they'll never know their grandfather like your Bella. It'll be your job to make him live in Bella's memory!!

I hope you get a good nights sleep. It'll help the healing proces..

Love you...

BUT THE MEMORIES ARE FLOODING ME STILL
I NEED TO MAKE SOME DECISIONS DOWN THE ROAD
AND I GUESS I WENT TO SLEEP THINKING BOUT IT
AND WOKE UP SAD AGAIN
WHEN WILL I EVER FEEL BETTER

Helen, i want to tell you a very personal story. I know, this is a heck of a place to tell personal stories but the reaction I received from the blog on my Sisters passing allows me to open up. My parents died Oct 6 1954-Mother 6 months later my father-April 20 1955. My Mother was 51 and a saint, my Father was 54 and a hard working family man. Instead of grieving, despite my religious upbringing, I became bitter. My Church attendance faltered and my attitude was lousy! I married Carol and a year later we had our first born a son. When the nurse put that beautiful baby in my arms all the attitude and bitterness flowed away. I started to understand God's plan. Yes, I lost my wonderful parents too young and they got cheated out of one the best time of their lives. But here was this beautiful beginning of a NEW life and a challange for me. That baby boy will be 49 next month. He has a younger (by one year) sister and a few years younger brother. We (Carol & I) had more sadness in our lives when Carol carried over 8 months and had a stillborn. But we went on to have our youngest son a couple of years later. Pick up your grandaughter and hug her and you will see the love you have lost return many times. In the last couple of years I have lost a Brother & now a Sister. My remaining sibling, a Brother is in a Nursing home and can only leave the building by Ambulette. I cherish every moment I have him. :?
