You're right, it does seem to be a "club" of sorts. Very exclusive. And that admission fee... much too costly. But I think that members of this club have to help one another. This grieving parent thing may not be something we can do alone. It's just too hard a road to travel without a guide. So thanks for your help on this path. @Linda

You are among friends, though we would probably not have sought each other out, but for this common thread of losing a child. Opening your heart here is a wonderful gift to other parents, siblings, extended family, and friends of a lost child (no matter what age). I didn't know when I started my blog about losing my son (two weeks before his 21st birthday), that I would meet people from all over the world who shared in my particular form of grief. Now, just about two and a half years later, I feel closer to some of the people who've written to me, than I do to people I've known for most of my life. Weird, and true. Such is child loss. I wouldn't have imagined so many things, so many events, so many losses as a result of losing my son, yet they have come to pass. Thank you for being brave enough to share your grief. It's not easy. It's survival. And, it's a gift. In light and love, Linda Hi Joe, just a note to say “welcome” to the grieving parents club.
