Losing my daughter was a very serious pain. There was always some empty space in my heart.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I had a daughter and lost her a long while ago. That's too sad a story to go into.
My father's death, my move, and my frightening and difficult delivery created a tremendous amount of stress, pain, and sadness for me. I was practically devastated beyond recovery.
I lost my daughter at 21. I had to give her up because I was broke, no place to take her, no money to take her. That was very traumatic.
I was just a very torn child, very wounded in so many areas, with no family support. I happened to the be the fifth child of my family. So everybody was already grown and had left home already.
My heart was broken when I realized my daughter had a problem. I pray every day for her.
When you lose a parent, you realize how vital they are to the foundation of your life. It's impossible to understand what it means until that curtain is pulled. You're an orphan. But then I think that life is kind of remarkable, and the thing that causes the biggest pain can also bring amazing energy.
My life was very tenuous last year. My daughter's death, in March in 2007, was unexpected. It was a shock. I didn't know if I'd survive it.
Losing my parents, who I admired, loved and needed, it took a long time to be able to move on.
The loss of my father was the most traumatic event in my life - I can't forget the pain.
Such is my experience - not that I ever mourned the loss of a child, but that I consider myself as lost!
