Grad N Go Question

Does it go away? Not really but it becomes less over time. My son and I were close so it was extremely difficult for me to see him walk away. And even today (5 weeks later) walking down the cereal ...

I'm good. Jared is 27 and has struggled to find his place in world, trying many paths. This seemed like a good way to finish his schooling while earning a living and he said he would be helping people. His brother is a Sgt. in Marine Corps so as a medic Jared will be assigned to a Corps unit. I am extremely proud of them both. His phone call Friday was unexpected & reassuring. He was able to tell me happy birthday (although 3 days early, it still counts!)

Hi Renee...I am sorry to hear about your long tough week. I am sure that you were a great comfort to the family of that young man. My heart aches just thinking about that mother's loss. I will keep them in my prayers.

Did Jacob give any news in his letter on how the DIV is doing? Just curious to share information. Justin mentioned that they were still struggling to pull it together as a group. I honostly believe that that must be a common problem for all DIV. I have read in other posts that they all seem to come together around week four or five.

Hello Renee, New to group and just catching up. So sorry you have to be the messanger. It is a tough place to be. Our son, now 23, lost one of his best friends, about 8 years ago. Andy was only 17. They had talked the night before, planning thei...
