This pain knows no limits
Today is January 17th. It was 17 months ago today I got the call that forever changed my life. My youngest son, Steven was gone. He was 28 years old. I think about him every moment I am awake. And those moments are plentiful. Sleep is a rare gift anymore. The hurt just does not get any easier to deal with. Sometimes anger takes over. How could God take him from me? And why does he need him more than I do? I have made an uncomfortable peace with God. I try not to question, but sometimes it is hard not to. Steven will always be my baby boy. I will never stop loving him. I miss you Tweezers!

Another Christmas Without Steven
This was our second Christmas without Steven, and it hasn't gotten any easier. The pain and emptiness is just as strong as it was the day we lost him. Sometimes it is almost too much to bare. I miss him so much it actually hurts. It has been 17 months and it still feels like it was yesterday. I feel like I may never crawl out of this dark hole I am in, but I am trying, for the rest of my family. It has been hard on all of us. We all loved Steven very much. And we all miss him terribly....

Mary to Mike Fazenbaker
I never got the chance to say good bye. I loved you so much and always will. There isn't anyone who could ever take your place. I still remember your laugh, your smile, and that litle twinkle in your eye. You were my rock, my soul mate, the love of my life. How I miss you!!!! Halloween was never my favorite time but it became special because it is your birthday. Happy birthday my love , I MISS YOU!!!!

Fall . . .
this was our favorite time of year! I loved taking Ethan outside for walks and watching him play in the leaves. We got dressed up and had our pictures taken for Halloween it was fantastic - just thinking about it makes me smile and cry! This time of year is VERY hard for me - I'm trying to get into the spirit of things - but it just isn't the same without him here. I miss him terribly!! I believe Ethan has been at the house alot lately thou . . . his toy puppy keeps barking . . . I think he's trying to tell me that its okay to enjoy this time of year with Cydney too and that he's still with us. I'm still so sad . . .

Little things . . .
That others take for granite seem to be sticking out like sore thumbs to me lately.

I can't ever imagine pulling up outside the daycare and letting my child get out of the car and run inside without hugging him/her and telling them I love them. Without taking the time to walk inside and tell the teacher what has been going on and the 2 of us comparing notes on how things are going. But I did . . .

Now I see it every morning - mom's that are running late or are just to lazy or that just take for granite that they'll see their child later and they'll hug them or tell tell they love them "later."

I want to go up to them and to tell them - "please don't do that!! Don't put off all of those "little things" - Don't put yourself in a position that I did - don't have 1 of your last memories be that you let him run off so eager to play and you ran out the door without saying "I love you Buggy and him saying I love you mommy"

WHAT I WOULDN'T GIVE TO GET THAT MORNING BACK!! THAT 1 CHANCE TO HEAR HIM SAY "I LOVE YOU MOMMY!!" JUST 1 MORE TIME!!

I don't want to scare those other parents - I just want them to appreciate EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF EVERY SINGLE DAY!! I don't want them to ever feel the heartache I feel everyday. I want them to learn from my mistake! Tell your children you love them EVERY CHANCE YOU GET!! No matter how old they are or how embarrassed they get - don't put yourself in the position to wish you'd have taken that few seconds to say it!

Ethan - Mommy Loves You!

Just recently lost my son
I just recently lost my son at age 26, I have returned to PA to bring him home and am glad to be around family but having a hard time finding anyone who understands how I feel and I am not sure how to go on. It happened on 4/05 and I find people calling and saying they don't know what to say etc. I am fortunate to have a caring family and freinds and know that everyone is trying to help. Thank you Kathy
