I have the best Sister!

[Jenn Lynn]

The last couple of weeks I have been feeling really down and depressed. The loss of the pregnancy last August finally hit home in the 4th stage of grieving. It hit me REALLY hard. The baby was supposed to be due in February and after the excitement of Christmas was over it just got worse.
I have been talking to my Sister a lot and she has been very supportive even though she doesn't exactly know what I am going through. And it's hard because she lives in Kentucky and I am up here in Wisconsin.
Today I received a beautiful bouquet of fresh cut tulips from her! They are so bright and cheerful. She said she wanted to send something Springy to help brighten up the cold days I am having.
I am glad that we get along so well now. In High School we fought all of the time. Now we are best friends.

Just thought I would share.

Awwww, how sweet, Jenn Lynn....

Yes, you definitely have a sweet, thoughtful sister. It's amazing how people sort of disappear after the initial grieving period and are nowhere around when you go through the "stages". Believe me, I know how lonely those days can be.

God bless and I hope you find some solace during the next few weeks. All anniversaries are hard.

Awww, Jenn Lynn, I am so sorry you are feeling so down. I am glad, however, that you have your wonderful sister to cheer you up! What a nice surprise, tulips are so beautiful and cheerful!

I have 7 brothers and only 1 sister, and while I adore my brothers, there is no one quite like my sister. Especially since our Mom is gone, all we really have is each other as far as female blood relatives (not counting our Granny and aunts & cousins). I can relate to how much you cherish your sister!

Hugs, Jenn Lynn!

Your sister sounds like a kind, caring person. Flowers - what a beautiful thought to cheer your day.

What a wonderful and caring sister you have. I'm sorry you have been feeling so sad, my friend. {{{HUGS}}} I know the pain of miscarried pregnancies. It is a very painful time and it takes quite a while to become accustomed to it. I don't think you ever really "get over" it but it gets easier with time. More {{{HUGS}}}

Thank You, Ladies for your kind thoughts and words.

I have been feeling more like my old (better) self since Monday. I hope it keeps up and I don't get so low again.

Thanks again!

What a thoughtful and caring sister you have! (I'm an only child and always wanted a sister). Tulips are so pretty, cheery, and Spring-y too. I am very sorry for all your sadness this past year, and you are in my thoughts and prayers that you may continue to heal.
