Does anyone what to share what they do each day to remember their children? I find that listening to my son's CD that I had his best friend make for his memorial service makes me feel close to him. It's music that he liked. I listen to it nearly every day in my car when I drive home from work. I also created a Myspace memorial page for him that I go to several times a day. Many of his friends leave daily messages to him there, of memories they had with him, or just to let them know they miss him. It bring some comfort, but it also makes me sad. I was wondering what others do. Sometimes I think these behaviors that I have aren't "sane", but it's the only way I can keep him close and alive in my heart.

I havent lost a child,but the next worse thing my mum,she was also my best friend,there is not a minute off the day goes by when i dont think about her,I have her picture next to my bed,she is the first thing i see when i awake,always say "morning mum" i have a few orniments that belonged to her 2 her,her 2 wee dogs she had and dust them everyday. I think she would be so glad i have them.I talk to her everywhere cos i can feel her around me. She stayed at my house about 4 wks before this happened for 2 wks,she slept in my daughters bed and wee got the wee1 a campbed (she loved it) I got into my daughters room when she is at school and just sit on the bed where mum slept. when she went to bed one nite i put a disney princess crown on her,and my wee 1 thought it was so funny,saying told you "gran was a princess" she was to me.

I can't name any one thing I do each day to remember my son. I think it's all still too fresh. We shared the same musical taste since all he listened to were my cd's. There are a few songs that he really liked that haunt me when my other son plays them. I try not to play them. It seems every memory brings only tears and an empty and painful heart. I have never felt anything like this. I have lost interest in most everything. There are two big pictures of him fly fishing in our kitchen. We had them made to display at his wake (celebration of life). I cook nearly every evening. Many times I lean against the counter and stare at the pictures and remember that day on the Mosquito Lagoon, 2 days after our last Christmas. I end up crying and burning or ruining dinner. I have been writing in more detail my feelings on lifewithoutjoel.com

Both of my daughters died jan 5th 2010. they were 2 and 4 and they died in a fire. most people act like they dont want to talk about what happened, or dont want to talk about my girls. but ive found its easier to talk about them as much as i can. it makes it easier to talk about all the funny things they did. its better to talk about them and laugh than to act like they were never here. the best advice i can give is to talk. talk as much as you can. tell your story to as many people that will listen. talk about your children everyday. they may not be here, but you can keep them alive through you.
