Every time I read your posts, my heart aches for you. All my praise goes to God tonight. My youngest son hydroplaned on I-20 driving his wrecker truck. It was a rollover. He walked away injured but alive. Praying for you and your family. You will always be Mo’s mom.

Coco, yes, praise God you do not have to go through this. I pray your son will heal quickly from any injuries and those tasked with his care will both FOCUS and treat him as a human, and not a widget. Thank YOU for your prayers.

I was not going to say this but, heck, I am going to say it anyway. What you describe is like going though Valentine's Day without a 'Valentine'. It's a dreaded day for people who don't have a 'sweetheart'. Like Mother's Day after your Mom has died and Father's Day after your Dad has died. It can also be painful for those who wanted to parents and did not. This will be a dreaded day because your baby is gone. I feel for you very much and I hope you can treasure the days of your Motherhood, and you still are a mother, and always will be.

Hi IvyRose, I had thought about those things earlier. My Pottery friend will be facing the first mother's day without her mom, and I have planned to at least text her tomorrow. And a couple women I know who never had kids, and if they wanted them and couldn't, then somewhere in their lives they had to suffer a terrible loss of a dream. So, yes, I will be thankful for the gift I got for almost 25 years. I wish I'd lived with more understanding and empathy for all those missing sweethearts or other loved ones.

You are Morgan’s mother for all eternity. You gave her physical life and then you shared the gospel with her so that she has eternal life through Christ Jesus. Well done!
