Title: If I seem mean, or quiet, there's a reason...
Post by Melissa on Jun 22nd, 2006, 11:26am
You can read it in my blog, just click on the little house beneath my avatar.  Things are sorta rocky right now.  Here's a clip from the newspaper...

I'm sorry you guys, I am sure this is nothing you need to know, but I just wanted you to know what was going on with me.

Sorry, I should have stated that one of my Grandma's died on Tuesday.  That's her above.

Melissa I am so sorry for your loss. She is with god and her husband now and I am sure they are watching over you right now.

It is hard to deal with a loss such as this but try and think of the good memories and celebrate her life and remember that she is in a place free of pain and is reunited with the love of her life.

Condolences Mel.

Mean? You have never been mean a day in your life.

You'd have to take courses in "Mean".  

And you'd flunk!

Thanks so much you guys.  Once again, Eli's birthday will be nuts.  He turns 3 tomorrow, and we can't have a party for him until July 9th due to Jesse's brothers wedding on Saturday, rehearsal tomorrow eve and now the funeral.  It was also a year ago tomorrow that I lost the baby, so things are somewhat topsy turvy. :-/

I appreciate everyone's kindness, as this is hitting me a lot harder than I expected.

love,
mel

That's quite a load you're bearing, Mel. Please take time to feel it. Begin the mourning, so the healing can begin. There is a lot of sadness  tied into all of this, and I wish I knew how to help you.
As for Eli, he's 3.... he will have a wonderful celebration...and many more to come. What he needs right now is to give YOU some comfort.
Now, about the mean...........REALLY, Mel! Who are you kidding?? Be sad, be disconnected, be silent...but mean just isnt your style.

Sending you hugs,
Cathi

Yeah, I suppose you're right Jimi.  I had no clue who they were (getting to know them wise), and for them to keep treating me like I was one of them, was difficult for me to understand and made me feel uncomfortable.  I am just sad that it has taken this long for me to mature and understand the whole thing.  It has only been in the past couple years that I've sent cards and pictures to them and invited them to our family functions.  Grandma was already sick by then, and I wasn't sure if she knew what was going on or not.  

Now my Aunt Mary and Aunt Susan are alone.  I am worried about them and want to include them as much as possible in mine and my kids lives.

Is late better than never?  I hope so. :'( :'( :'(

Late is always better than never. Maturity, in most instances, breeds wisdom. Hell, look how smart I am. :P

  Hon it is NEVER too late.Your two aunts will have the joy of knowing and spending time with you,Jessie and the kids and your Grandma will be watching smiling from heaven.About the anniversay of the Loss of your baby I will be praying for peace for you.April 15th is always a sad day for me.10 years ago we lost a baby to miscarage a week before our wedding.talk about an emotional roller coaster.It will get slightly easier but you will never forget the day you lose your baby.i just hug my girls  tighter and thank God everyday that they are a part of my life and healthy.doesn't take away the longing feeling but does lessen it a little.
  hugs to you and the family...

my prayers are with you, Melissa.  No, I'm learning it's never too late to show someone that you care.  

You hang in there, girl - you WILL get through this.  Eli's birthday, the wedding, the funeral, the anniversary of your loss.... one day at a time, one foot in front of the other.  Stay strong, Mel - you can do this!  

hugs and love,
Margi

When I try to say something nice I just come off sounding stupid so here.
