When Your World Stops 
When I have been in distress, I put on the song, "Calling All Angels" and just sob. Cry for the disappointment and loss, cry for the injustice, and cry that it can't be over soon enough.

I'm so sorry darling, that it is the darkness before the dawn. People probably distance themselves because they simply don't know what to say. They can't relate, and it is their worst fear realized.

But you are still human, and need loves and hugs, and a way to cope. You are so loved, and there are more people praying for your comfort than you realize. I hope you can find this song (I first heard it while watching "Pay It Forward), to have an outlet to cry, and the courage to go on.

Calling all angels
walk me through this one,
don't leave me alone
calling all angels
we're cryin' and we're hurtin'
and we're not sure why... "

Hello, You don't know me but while reading Katrina's blog and her desire to help bear you up, I thought I would just send you a note. I pray that someday God will heal your broken heart. It will probably always hurt but hopefully not ache. I found the shower is a great place to cry. Never think you have cried enough. It's ok to cry. I just wanted to tell you that. I read something a long time ago that I would like to share. "I believe that friends are quiet angels who sit on our shoulders and lift our wings when we forget how to fly." Please know you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
