I miss you when the leaves change and I get a kind of
everything-comes-to-an-end feeling in the fall.
I miss you when my birthday rolls around (again!) and I remember that
I'm not going to get a phone call from you.
I miss you when you when they put out the Hallmark keepsake Christmas
ornaments (earlier and earlier every year) and I think to myself,
"Well I don't have to get one of those for you this year -- ever."
I miss you when I realize I'm having a panic attack and it is entirely
preventable but I forget to take care of myself -- and I can't call
you and hear your voice.
And that's just a few of the I Miss You's because just thinking this
way is starting to make me need to cry and I don't have time and it's
too public here anyway.
I just miss you. All the time.
But especially right now.

Daniel...your words struck a resonate tone with me. I miss my sweet
daughter Cindy in all of those ways and like you said so many more.
Nothing will ever take the place of our lost loved one. I feel your
pain this day as this is the first anniversary of my daughter's
death,as I posted earlier. The visits to the grave instead of birthday
dinners or shopping trips is a poor substitue, yet I would not feel
right if I left her grave without a physical reminder that she is
loved by those she left behind far too soon. Fall is a such a mixture
of emotions, isn't it? A breath that winter is on the the way and yet
a wish that we could stay forever in the golden leaves and warm sun. I
send you wishes that we take care of ourselves and try to remember the
touch of their skin and the sound of their laugh this day, for that is
how they would want us to be this and everyday I am sure. Warm
thought..Judy, Cindy's Mom
