Here's part of a comment I posted to Angel Mom. I thought it applied to my page as well:
...I wish there was an answer. For you. For me. For all of us that have joined with out thought or knowledge of one another in this very painful yet strong and beautiful club we call; parents in mourning.
We will get through this. We have gotten through what we thought was the worst part. The actual event. Somehow I keep revisiting that part in my mind over and over wishing I could go back and have those few moments just one more time. Even if it does come with the pain.
Our children don't have the mothers that we were before this, your right. Yet isn't it possible that we're somehow better? Better listeners. Better protectors. Better at picking up every detail of their childhood. Better at savoring every moment. More appreciative of them and of this beautiful and precious gift bestowed upon us once again...being a mommy.

You have such a beautiful way with words. Reading your comments on my blog and your posts here has really been helping me as I go thru yet another rough spot on this grieving journey. Thank you.
Very lovely Ruby. You sound like a true comfort to other parents in mourning, and a true wake up call to those who have not experienced the loss of a child.
Thank you, I miss you!
You give me strength in your thoughts and being your friend is an honor. S
