PrairieMary, Yes, my husband has been with me ever since Courtney's death. Our grief has brought us closer, we just celebrated our 30th anniversary and Courtney has been gone for 9 years now. It's so hard to believe that she's been gone that long. Yes, I agree... I will be crying the whole time I'm making the flowers, and as I watch the bride walk down the aisle.
Courtney and Chris (my son) were my only children. I lost four other babies due to miscarriages. You're right, having other children doesn't take the pain away. And sometimes it kind of makes it worse because you remember what you are missing. The family is incomplete.

Hugs to your PrairieMary... we can so relate to what each other is feeling.
