| Post subject: | The Board and Many Here |
Today is already been a rough morning for me. Actually, it has been building in me for a while now. Today marks the first year anniversary of the death of my precious, oldest daughter. It has been a terrible time mostly for me. It is a roller coaster of every emotion you can imagine. Within any given day there can be everything from anger and profound sadness to happiness and laughter. They say this gets better with time but to this point I do not believe that. It gets different but no better. Anyway, the reason for the shoutout is I am not certain how I could handle this without this board. It has been a distraction, therapeutic and time filler for me and I appreciate it. MANY here have been supportive and friendly to me and for that today I am grateful. Thank you. |

Your news a year ago was one of the more shocking and sad things I have ever read while being a member of this community. I certainly have no idea what that must be like, but I am encouraged that you are able to use this weird little corner of the internet as a place to escape from your pain and everyday thoughts. I hope that as time passes you can continue to heal. Wishing you only the best Mike. |

I cannot imagine what that must be like. While I suspect the pain never goes away, I hope that in time it eases, even just a bit. |

If Elmhurst Steve can impact just one life like yours, it was all worth it. I hope the healing continues and the good memories never fade. |

I read a very good book recently. By a Holocaust survivor and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl - Man's Search for Meaning. Pretty easy read. Gives some insight as to how some withstand such horrible events, while others don't. Keep up the hard work of supporting your family - that will assuredly pay off in the long run. |

We have friends that lost a son in a car accident. I will never try to even imagine the personal hell it is for a parent in that regard. I hope you continue to find peace in your day to day journey. |

Friday is going to be rough for us. Daughter having brain surgery for the tumor. This place does pass the time though. All the best Mike. |

Mike, as the other board member in the commonwealth, I feel a kinship with you...even if you support the wrong Pennsylvania college football team... I'm thinking about you and hope you stay positive. |

Cemetery is tough to do because no one should bury a child. I have done it and it is something no parent should have to endure. |

My thoughts are with both of you. I don't pray, but I do believe we are all connected. Your pain is our pain. My best wishes and thoughts to you both. |

I like disagreeing and agreeing with you PM... There's nothing you can do to bring her back, but cherish the memories of her you will always have. |

Also Scooter, I hope you will let us know how things go Friday. We are all pulling for you. |
