My life ended. My grief journey began.
The Essays.
This web site has been built to share these very special essays. Each one is a glimpse of my struggle with the grief I have experienced since God answered my prayers that my dear sweet Joann would no longer be suffering.
It is a place I sincerely pray you never have to understand.
In taking this journey you are doing an amazingly brave thing. You are choosing to enter my world. A world in which words are inadequate to describe. While you are here with me, your sharing of these essays will bring me a bit of comfort since sharing these deepest of deep thoughts and emotions is one of the greatest gifts of support you can give.
There are difficult moments in what you are about to read - moments I experience quite regularly. For you, your trip will only be temporary. Yes, when you leave you will return to your world. A world where I pray you can then appreciate not only my struggle, but also the struggle of others who are facing their grief on a daily basis.
