One thing I could never handle

I don't think anyone gets over the loss of a child. In fact I am not even sure its something that a mother would want to "get over". However, those women who are able to still live their lives after something so horrifying, are truly amazing and have so much faith in God. I will say I have faith in God and according to my husband I have a lot. But I am not sure that I have the faith to believe everything would eventually be okay.
I dont think God even expects us to get over it, but I do believe he wants us to live and love him. I think that maybe if we trust him then we can at least smile again. I have no clue what I would do without my daughter and I pray that I never have to go through that. But I "know" two people who have and one made it out okay and the other will make it through. The first was Mary - she had to endure the death and suffering of her child, but she knew she would see him again. THe second is the most amazing person I have never met. Her child had this terrible desease that caused him so much pain and suffering and now he has gone to be with Jesus. SHe knows she will see him again. I pray that she receives the comfort she needs, because this woman has the faith and strength I have never seen. Her little Tripp will always be with her loving her her whole life until they meet again to play in heaven. He will be waiting and preparing for the day they can reunite.
