I'm lost without them.

2 weeks ago today on November 3rd, 2008, I lost my son Alexander James. Losing him was completely unexpected and since he's gone, I've lost myself somewhere.

Alex was my third pregnancy. The first was in 1994. We lost our daughter Elizabeth Lynn at 20 weeks due to my incompetent cervix, which we didn't know was incompetent until it was too late.

My 2nd pregnancy was in 2006 and was twins. We lost the first baby at 10 weeks to disappearing twin syndrome. We'll never know what sex… Continue

I would like to share the page we made in honor our son... It helped me to be able to go their, and talk with him... maybe such a page for your son might help you?

You might have to copy / paste the link...?

I'm so sorry that the people in your life aren't giving you the support you need. I'm sure that most of your co-workers didn't know how to approach you about your terrible loss, and chose to just avoid the situation - not realizing how you need their support right now, and how much their absence would hurt you. People get so awkward around someone who has experienced a tragedy.

It is my hope - even if you never return to that job - that your co-workers will reach out to you in ways they haven't done yet. It's not fair for them to pretend like nothing happened, like you hadn't lost your son.

You'll be in my thoughts, Tammy. Hang in there.
