It pushes and prods till we are awakened from this restless sleep. Just hold our hand tell us you are there to share our pain, give us a hug, give us a tissue, just let us cry. The tears bring healing. Please don't ask us to stop. My child is still my child, I am still his Mother.
Family pictures are so very hard.
Your family is complete, ours is not so Please be patient with us and try to understand when we are hesitant to join in. We too are uncomfortable. That is why we wear our mask, so you cannot see the tears or the pain for when you look at us. Please know we ask God everyday to protect you and those you love from ever knowing this kind of pain.
