I figured death would do us part in about 60+ years, rather than 8.
Today I head to San Diego with my MIL for a conference I never imagined I'd be attending. I'm sure none of the attendees thought they would either. I am looking forward to Saturday, as I get to listen to 4 different seminars.
Do Infants Grieve?
Finding Joy
Finding a New Purpose
Matt and Maddy (by www.mattlogelin.com)
I'm particularly interested in my 1st session, "Do Infants Grieve?" I've thought about that often and if Will is missing Patrick and grieving. I'm hoping to walk away with some much needed information and support.

I am glad to hear you are going to this. I think it will leave you with some comfort knowing that you are not alone. I hope you learn how to cope better and it helps ease some of the pain for you and your MIL.
One day at a time

I hope that the seminars are able to give you the answers that you are looking for. My thoughts & prayers are with you & Debbie this weekend.
I hope that you find some much needed comfort from this seminar. I think being around others that KNOW just what you're going through will be helpful. I will keep you and your MIL in my thoughts and prayers, especially this weekend.
I hope the seminars and the other women give you comfort and strength this weekend. You will be in my prayers.
I'm so sorry you're even in the group of people who should have to attend this, but I am so glad you have an opportunity to do it, since you have to live it... I hope it's cathartic for you. I would be really interested in what they have to say about infant grief, as well... and the Matt & Maddy part should be awesome. I would think that it's helpful to know that you're not alone in this horrible, unimaginable situation.
BTW.... love, love love the new blog layout and header, too... :)
I hope you walk away from this conference with a little bit of guidance & comfort. XoXo Farra
Thinking of you E! I hope you get some good info at the conference!
I am so sorry this is something that you have to even attend, but I hope you and Debi walk away with a little more comfort and peace. Will be thinking of you! xoxo
Wow. What a neat thing for you to do to. I hope you leave with some great thoughts from the seminar. And how cool that Matt and Maddy will be there!
PS - Love the blog makeover!
I love the new look! And the pictures at the top are great! I am also very glad that you are going to the conference. I think it will be great for both of you. The support will be great because, as you said, no one thinks it will be them. But it is you and it will be a wonderful time of support and new friendships. Have a good time and tell us about it when you get back!
I hope you and Deb (Im guessing shes going) find comfort and some peace. XOXO
Hoping you and your MIL find some comfort and peace. You will be in my prayers this weekend. How cool you get to meet Matt and Maddy! Sending you hugs! xx
I hope your meeting went well, and you both walk away feeling some comfort. That is nice you have a group like that near you. You will have to let us know what you learned from the Child seminar.
Gosh, that is so wonderful that there is a seminar like that for those who need help and support. Personally, I think you're pretty amazing. I know you probably don't feel like it. But you are. I hope you'll give us an update on how it goes.
I'm glad you went to this! I hope you thought it was useful.
It was so great to meet you, Erin!! XOXO
xoxo
