My only child died suddenly. She was 27 and died May 23, 2004. I am trying to deal with it and the holidays are coming up again. I am coming to the realization on my good days that Stacey won't be around for holidays and what makes it more difficult is she left behind two young children. I went through last holidays in a fog and a daze. Any ideas as to how to keep it special for the children while your heart is breaking in two. Stacey was my life and miss her a great deal.
