Someone told me today I dont seem like a mom who lost her daughter. Excuse me. The person that said this has never lost a child...yet alone lost a child to a brutal murder. Its as if you are saying I would seem like a better mother if I stayed home in bed all day depressed and not able to function. Well, thats not me. I am turning my intense pain into a intense desire to bring change in my daughters name. So...Until you have walked in my shoes and lived my life...do not pass judgment. I pray you will never live through all the pain I lived through in the 30 years of my life and your kids will never suffer the way my Gracie did. You need to recognize that grief is as personal as a fingerprint. Do NOT tell me how I should or should not be doing it, or how I should or should not feel by now! Dont tell me what is right or wrong! I am doing it my way and in my time! If I am to survive this I must do what is best for me!!!
