I think this post is incredibly insightful into the "I know how you feel" realm. It is easy to forget in our grief that other people's trials and pain mean something to them, so when they share that with you it can become hurtful that they are comparing their pain to yours. I have struggled with this but I think you nailed it in explaining that the experiences are different, but many feeling can be similar. I also really love that you talked about not being a hero. After my husband passed away, many people told me I was "Superwoman" or the "strongest person they have met". I always feel like I am deceiving someone--I'm not "superwoman", just moving forward. Thanks for the post.

Sara died in ten minutes and we have a 11 week old son named William. The things you said I can totally relate to mostly about finding a support group young and similar tragedies. I am still searching as I live in CA but live in Austin several years ago. What a wonderful place. Anyway I just wanted to say hank you for giving me building blocks for the day.<br />Edwin<br />Www.raisewilliam.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04094509416128180628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2619151975968692978.post-36386751984710452382013-10-29T21:58:20.048-05:002013-10-29T21:58:20.048-05:00What amazing insight and empathy.
