RobinM Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) I swore I would never do another amp. But we are. Tomorrow. Zander recently turned 7. He is the son of my beloved Elsie who I lost at 13.5 years old to LS. She DID have osteo but it's the LS that took her. That was 2012 m I also learned that Zander's aunt on his dad's side died from osteo at 8 years old. The odds sucked at best. Zander is my 2nd to youngest. We were absolutely blindsided my this. Any other recent amps?

a_daerr Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Henry was amp'ed in December 2013, so we have about 15 months under our belt. It's been a journey, to say the least. So sorry you're going through this. Best wishes that you get a lot more quality time with your boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
