I've been reading you for quite a while now but don't think I've ever commented. I HAVE to now. I have to say that I know exactly how you feel. When my son joined the army at 17 I was totally devastated. I couldn't imagine living without him in the house....or at least the same state. The pain was so consuming that I withdrew from my other two kids because I didn't want to feel that kind of pain again, and thought if I distanced myself from them I wouldn't. Doesn't work that way and I regret the time I took from them by being so selfish. But I wanted to tell you that it does get better. You'll always miss her, but the pain does lessen over time. You will make it, I promise. My prayers are for peace for you.
