to all feeling the loss of loved ones...grief and the way we deal with it is a very personal thing and there are no rules.
My infant son, Jason, died 30 years ago March 2. After all this time there are still things that trigger tears...granted not as often, but still there. The anniversary slipped past me this year. My friend kaykay here on ATP is in the hospital. I have been helping out with her two girls, so my thoughts have been elsewhere. Went to see her yesterday and she mentioned that the St. George Island Charity Chili Cookoff had been mentioned on tv....she looked at me and asked what was wrong. After thanking her for the distraction, I explained the sad look on my face...30 years ago the cookoff was held March 2.
