I'm so sorry Yellow has swum home to be with Matthew already. :(<br /><br />As for the retreat, yes, there will be some of what you describe, and yes, it will be unbearably hard. But there will also be laughter, the kind that comes only when you are refined by the deepest fires of pain and come out the other side to find fellow-survivors who know your anguish personally and you begin the tentative steps of "physical therapy" together. There's no way to go without being fearfully nervous of the unknown experience ahead, but I believe you will look back on this weekend as a gift from the Lord. {{{hug}}} Praying for you!<br /><br />I LOVE what you say about Job and have often felt the same.

You and John will be blessing to them as much as they will be a blessing to you. So much healing will take place/begin. It will be incredible to be in the presence of the other parents at that retreat. Praise God for His provision of this retreat. Having someone come along side you as you deal with any loss is such comfort. Being able to share about Matthew to other parents and to hear about their children will be incredible. (I couldn't find the right word - incredible seemed to be the best I could find at the moment). :-)Katie Lawrencenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2273909430922264674.post-59183377451010948602010-03-22T23:59:42.191-04:002010-03-22T23:59:42.191-04:00Will be praying specifically for you and John to b...Will be praying specifically for you and John to benefit from the retreat and for your health/strength/state of mind and heart as you begin the next cycle.

And I would love to go to that one. That couple has ministered to me through their GriefShare ministry. It has helped me so much in my processing this grief.<br /><br />And I will be praying for you, Lori, as you begin your medicines and transfer.<br /><br />Thinking of you....Gottjoy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16122254540480281334noreply@blogger.com
