My Mama & Daddy were divorced when I was 10. Both remarried. My step mom Ann passed away in 2003. My stepfather is still alive and with my Mom. I wanted to share this picture of my parents comforting each other, mourning the loss of their daughter, my sister Susan. It was so sweet and so comforting to me and my siblings to see this. How can they handle burying a child? My heart breaks for them. My Daddy will be going into a assisted living this next week. Please keep my parents in your thoughts and prayers as they are mourning. My heart is broken.

God Bless~

That picture says it all. After all those years they still can comfort each other. No matter what the age is it's still their daughter and it still is wrong to have to let go of her.
Stay strong Deb, I know it's the hardest thing right now, but you need to take care of yourself. I'm thinking of you...
What a thought provoking picture. But still...the love shines through and so does your love for them. Look after yourself through this tough time...it is your loss too. My thoughts are with you and your family.
it is the grand comfort to know that just because you can not stay married that you can come together when your children are in need and you can work together grieve together and remember that at one time s/he was the love of your life. My uncle and aunt amazed me when they were living with how well they got along and did together for the children after their divorce and re marriages.
they and the kids were better for it... my parents on the other hand... NOPE would not happen in a million years no matter the reason.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers

Dear Debbie,
I just wanted to stop by to offer you my deepest condolences. Siblings are often forgotten when someone passes away, even though their pain is just as great as anyone else's. Having lost my only brother at the age of 41 back in February, I understand how raw your pain is. Please allow yourself to grieve and to heal. It is going to take some time to get through this, but you will get through it. You won't always feel as if you are spending your days sludging through quicksand.
I am very sorry for your loss.
Hugs,
Debbie
I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers Deb.
