Our son was killed by insurgents in Afghanistan 6 months ago today. It was Mother's Day and the chaplain and gunnery sergeant came to our door at 8:57PM. I will never forget turning the corner to our foyer and seeing the shadows of their uniforms.
It is comforting to have a place to come to where people can share their true feelings and other people truly understand. Thank you all for your care and courage.

Loveyounich - I just wanted to let you know that I read your first post and wanted to say how sorry I am that you lost your son in Afghanistan. I cannot imagine a more horrible mother's day. My heart aches for you. Six months is such a short time and your grief is so new. I am sorry that you needed to search for a board such as this one, but I'm glad you found it. Margot
