One act of random kindness is all it takes

Most of you reading this including myself have never lost a child and I Pray that none of us ever have to experience that unimaginable loss.


But there are many who are reading this who have experienced the Loss of a Child either through Pregnancy Loss, SIDS, Cancer, Other Medical Illnesses, Accidental And From Suicide, Which Is Not A Selfish Act As Some Have Called It Because Mental Illness Does Not Happen To Us By Choice.


Just Like Cancer And Heart Attack’s Are Not Voluntary Choices Of Our Own.


Yes There Are Choices That We May Make That Help To Attribute To Illnesses Like Drugs, Alcohol And Tobaccos.


Deep Depression Is A Mental Disease Just Like Heart Disease Or Cardiovascular Disease And Needs To Be Treated By Physicians And Other Medically Trained Professionals Who Work In The Field Of Mental Illness.


I kind of got off track there but...
Suicide is Not A Voluntary Selfish Act ...
ITS A ILLNESS!!


I learned that the loss of a child by miscarriage doesn’t seem to Really Be Considered A Loss By Some. If it were parents who lost a child by miscarriage wouldn’t be told


“ Well you can Always Have Another One”


Is that like getting a bad steak at a restaurant and being told
Oh well You Can Order Another One?


I’m just a Flooring store owner but I’m Very Sure that once the child is CONCEIVED...


THAT’S THEIR CHILD !!


So yes they may try and have another child but those parents
Just Experienced
THE LOSS OF A CHILD AND THEY SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO FEEL LIKE THEY CAN OPENLY GRIEVE JUST LIKE ANY OTHER PARENT GRIEVES OVER THE LOSS OF THEIR PRECIOUS CHILD NO MATTER THE AGE OF THAT CHILD .


I also quickly learned that parents who have lost a child would love to tell you about their child.


They know it’s an awkward moment for you.


They know you probably feel uncomfortable asking them about their child.


But try to imagine the feelings ( and whatever you imagine multiply that by a million or a billion or a zillion) that the parents feel who lost their child.


They are suffocating inside !!


And again I haven’t lost a child so for the parents reading this who have lost a child if “Suffocating” isn’t the right word then please forgive me because once again I don’t know how you feel but I’m trying to at least understand it the best I can.


And how do you give those parents a BREATH OF FRESH AIR?
Ask them about their child!!
It will probably bring tears to their eyes but that’s much better than....


BREAKING THEIR HEART   From not asking about their child.


I feel a closeness to each of the parents I talk to especially after shedding tears with them and hugging them or it’s probably the other way around...THEM HUGGING ME!!


What would the Angel Of Hope be without us understanding it’s purpose?
Nothing at all
It’s a symbol of....HOPE


It’s a constant reminder that their child will not be forgotten because the
Angel Of Hope
Is For Their Child
And
For The Children In The Future Who Will Be Called To Heaven


And Each Precious Child Will ....


Always Be Loved, Missed And Remembered


I ask all of you who know a parent who has lost a child to please ...


Give Them.......A BREATH OF FRESH AIR


And Ask them about their child or if you really feel uncomfortable then just tell them you would like to Hug them


WE ALL COULD USE A HUG NOW AND THEN ❤️❤️❤️❤️


PS
Oh and PLEASE PLEASE NEVER
tell a grieving parent to..


“ GET OVER IT THAT HAPPENED YEARS AGO”


The day a parent stops grieving is the day that they reunite with their child in HEAVEN
