Re: I feel so bad
i know birthdays are especially hard. i have heard you express before that you feel a sadness over not being able to go to the grave at times and i am sorry for your pain. your daughter is not at the cemetary. she is right there with you. it is only her earthly body that you burried. love comes from the soul and they do not ever die. quiet your mind and feel her there with you. peace be with you today. |

Re: I feel so bad
Hi Janice: I agree with Michele, while Maeghann's resting place is in the cemetary, her soul is with the Lord and her spirit will be forever with you and her family no matter where you all are. I pray that God will grant you the comfort you need to know that Maeghann is safe now. May God Bless the day that he send his angel Maeghann to earth 26 years ago. Happy Birthday in Heaven Maeghann!!! Sending you a big Hug Tracey (Terrell's MOM) |

Re: I feel so bad
Janice, I visited my son's grave over the Thanksgiving weekend and he was not there. I didn't feel his presence even though we wept and prayed over his grave for some time. When I stood up from praying I was reminded of the poem that goes something like this "don't stand over my grave and cry for I am not there...." I am not saying don't visit your daughter's grave, I just don't believe that being at the gravesite of you loved one necessarily represent the love and caring you have for them. It is more symbolism than anything else. Maeghann knows your heart just as God does. And if it helps do as I do, talk to your child. I find myself doing the baby talk to Myles often. Saying things I used to say when he was alive like "how is Mommys little man" or "is Mommys little man doing OK". I will pray for strength, comfort and encouragement for you and your husband. By the way, when you talk to Maeghann, please tell her Happy Birthday in Heaven for me. God bless |

Re: I feel so bad
MICHELLE, STRANGE BUT TRUE...I HAVE NEVER FELT THE PRESENCE OF MY BOYS AT THE CEMETARY. I KEPT SOMEWHAT OF A SHRINE SET UP IN THEIR BEDROOM FOR A YEAR OR MORE AFTER THEIR DEATH. THAT IS WHERE I WENT WHEN I NEEDED TO FEEL CLOSE TO THEM. I USED TO FEEL THEIR PRESENCE THERE. NEVER AT THE GRAVE. I WENT INTO THEIR ROOM AND LAID ON THE BEDS WHEN I NEEDED TO FEEL PHYSICALLY CLOSE TO THEM. THAT IS JUST ME. I NEVER TOLD ANYONE OF MY "SHRINE" BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD THINK I WAS NUTS. WHEN I FELT IT WAS TIME TO CHANGE THINGS IN THAT ROOM I DID. NOT ONE MINUTE BEFORE. WE ALL HAVE TO DO WHAT IS BEST FOR US AND LET OUR HEARTS LEAD THE WAY. FOR ME IT WAS NICE TO HAVE THE PRIVACY OF MY OWN HOUSE TO MOURN, CRY, SCREAM, SLEEP. WHATEVER. THAT IS WHAT WORKED FOR ME. |

Re: I feel so bad
Dear Janice, Wishing your beautiful Maeghann a lovely birthday in Heaven. Know that she made this world a better place by being in it and that her life mattered. I believe that she can feel your love and I hope that you can feel hers. You are in my prayers. Love, Lorre |
