International Bereaved Mother's Day 2019

Today is International Bereaved Mother's Day.
International Bereaved Mother’s Day is observed the Sunday
before Mother’s Day in the United States. A special day to
have our children, and our never-ending grief, acknowledged.

When you lose a child, you lose an entire lifetime of dreams, hopes, wishes and plans.

I miss my son all day, every day. I think of him every day. I go to sleep thinking about him.

I dream about him and I wake up thinking about him.

I love you, Richard Colt Hazlett. 

I do not need a special day to bring Colt to my mind.

The days I do not think of him are very hard to find.

Each morning when I awake I know that he is gone.

And no one knows the heartache as I try to carry on.

My heart still aches with sadness and secret tears still flow.

What it meant to lose you Colt, no one will ever know.

My thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill.

In life I loved you dearly; in death I love you still.
