Stunning but sensitive story of the loss of a child.
I seldom listen to attached videos, but make an exception for Aberdeen Annie!

Dear Loré,
I hate it when people have pat answers. When one is grieving a loss what’s needed is not words but empathy. Lovely story.
Shalom,
Rochelle

I could tell from the first line this wasn’t going to end happily. What an amazing heart-breaker of a story. So real and vivid. Best thing is, it’s truthful and honest. Everything is in it.
Loré, this was unbelievably super! You knocked this one out of the park for sure. Great!

I find it beautiful they have each other: as when others don’t get it but can only offer pat answers they have a companionship, that at least they are not alone.
Nicely written.

That has to be the worst loss. Your poetic description brings out the sadness. Some don’t know how to give proper solace in a time of such loss. It’s difficult to come through. Great writing, Lore. —- Suzanne

I remember when my mother died, I got so many pats on my back, people saying “you have to be strong”, “she is in a better place”, when all I wanted for them to leave me alone. Thank you, Suzanne. Much appreciated, as ever.
