How many times after your loss did you feel like you couldn't move
on, or felt like you couldn't be a mom to your living child/children? We have all faced this maybe at one point no matter
how long a period or short! After losing a baby or a child we feel like a big part of us is missing and it changes us
forever. We may continue to possibly point blame at ourselves, get angry with life, and maybe just feel desparate.
Our marriages may even become a big battle and start to suffer. The key to getting through all of this is COMMUNICATION!
Holding our emotions in can be a terrible thing to do. The minute a feeling takes place that is negative, it does need
to be let out in a verbal manner. Holding these feelings down for long periods of time can fester and grow until negative
reactions occur resulting in BLOW-UPS which affect yourself and your family.
God can be the number one focus to help get us through
such pain. I have learned that taking pills or doing anything to want to end your life is what the Devil wants us to do. DON'T
GIVE IN TO THESE FEELINGS!!!!!!!! God wants to be our healer and our comforter. It would be easy to blame God for such things
but the truth and matter is things happen in life that we don't understand and we cannot blame God for everything!
What we can do to help us through our hurts is communicate
with other moms who have gone through such a devasting thing. When we talk with other moms we learn that we are not
alone and that we can cope. An example of making a difference in anothers life may be starting a mom group for mothers
who have lost a baby or a child. This can be either on line or in person. Having an angel mom pen-pal is another idea.
Creating the MOMS of ANGELS newsletter is a way that I feel I can get my healing as well as make a difference in other angel
moms lives. Instead of giving up on my life I decided to help others. I would rather do that then end my life.
God has helped me and given me the resources to be able to do this. YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! Don't give up, God is
on your side and just know that I am here also and I will be your angel mom cheerleader so to speak!!!! God bless you :)
YOU CAN DO IT!

Remember, I struggle with negative feelings from
time to time and have to fight almost everyday! I say all of the above with only the knowledge and experience of such
a loss! YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
