Profile Information

About Me:
Since 2000, I have been the Dietitian for Cornerstone Hospice in Florida. Hospice cared for my grandfather for years, who passed away in 2001 from cancer. Currently I am working on my Masters Degree in Grief Counseling & Thanatology.
About my Loss:
I lost my brother James. It was very traumatic because I never met him. I was raised by my maternal grandparents and he was raised by my paternal grandparents. We did not know each other existed. He died June 2001, I found out about him on Thanksgiving Day 2001 and was told about his death that same day. Talk about a tragedy. What makes things even worse is we were so much alike according to anyone who knew James.

email from my sister Carolyn requesting Prayer

Hi Melanie, Diana and Mom,

I want to share some news with you, because I know extra prayers can be powerful. Joshua lost a co-worker/friend this week. His friend, Andy, was on his way home from work Monday, and just innocently stopped at a stop sign waiting on traffic. Apparently a semi driver failed to heed his stop sign, and swerved, attempting to miss a car that was in the intersection with the right of way. This caused the semi trailer to tip over onto Andy's car, crushing it. Andy was pron… Continue

Billy Graham

Sometimes religious emails are better than some of the funny ones we get and pass on....

Priceless .

Billy Graham was returning to Charlotte after a speaking engagement and when his Plane arrived there was a limousine there to transport him to his home.

As he prepared to get into the limo, he stopped and spoke to the driver.

'You know' he said, 'I am 87 years old and I have never
Driven a limousine. Would you mind if I drove it for a while?'

The driver said,
'No problem. Have at it.'

Billy… Continue

~ Joyous Reunions With Deceased Loved Ones ~

Have you been contacted by a loved one who has died? After-death communication (ADC) is probably as old as mankind, but ours is the first complete research study of this field. These spiritual experiences are extremely common, and in many other parts of the world they… Continue

Thank you for your kin thoughts. No, I can only guess what happened... I didn't want to put him through an autopsy... wouldn't have changed anything. I suspect a stroke as his heart was beating when paramedics arrived...just wasn't breathing.
Thank you again..

Thank you for your kind words Diana. I am so very for your loss as well. I have figured out after almost two year sof grieving alone, that it doesn't help to be " stuck" in my grief. The Lord has been a great support for me, but I still feel very alone in my grief. Live well, and God bless.

I'm sorry, I don't want you to think this is all about me. I am also sorry for your loss. It looks like you are healing by helping other people. I commend you.

My daughter is going to a therapist and psychiatrist next week to try and sort things out. She spends all of her time trying to get her boyfriend back but he's not coming around. I know the therapist is the best thing for her. Should I not meddle? I can't stand seeing her unhappy. It makes me unhappy that she is so upset. Losing three grandparents in 9 months is to much for her to bear. Her boyfriend has supported her through all of this. I don't think he understands the greiving process. He didn't let her grieve. Just fought with her when she was angry. Oh, well. I guess this to shall pass.

To One In Sorrow

Let me come in where you are weeping, friend,
And let me take your hand.
I, who have known a sorrow such as yours, can understand.
Let me come in--I would be very still beside you in your grief;
I would not bid you cease your weeping, friend,
Tears bring relief. Let me come in--and hold your hand,
For I have known a sorrow such as yours, And understand.

-Grace Noll Crowell

New memorial website Friends At Rest

It’s a unique feeling, when it finally dawns on you that someone who has been a part of your life for such a long time is no longer there. It’s a sickening realisation that stops you in your tracks. In your mind you can visualise the person, smiling, talking, living, but when the vision fades you realise that this is now your only connection to them. Through memories, photographs, anecdotes and, on a higher plane,...

This is one of the kindest things you may ever see.. It is not known who replied, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office of the US postal service. Our 14 year old dog, Abbey, died last month. The day after she died, my 4 year old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so...

Headstone funding for low-income families who have lost a baby

Just heard from this very worthwhile foundation and thought it would be helpful to spread the news: "We have a foundation that helps provide low-income families who have a lost a baby with funding for a permanent memorial stone for the gravesite. We have been around since 2003 and have helped 6 families just this year alone in getting headstones for their angel babies. (See www.dempseyburdick.com) We would love it if you would pass on...
