		<description>I&#039;m with Jodi. Reading your bio, you&#039;re a fire wife too, so you know grief... to a degree. How many times have you pulled out the old Class A for DH? Or gotten ready to hug another widow, too soon, and feel guilty..? (Or is that just me?) 

I say it&#039;s the same - for those of us with hearts. I know when we gave our daughter up I couldn&#039;t function. And now as the 18th milestone birthday approaches, and the thought of her choosing not to know us (read: blowing us off - read: me taking her choice to live her life as it is, is not personal to me, who she does not know) I am in panic mode. I simply cannot function at times. Luckily there are people here who can. (In my house, in my life, didn&#039;t mean to make it sound like I&#039;m in a group home or something..) ;) (Not that there&#039;s anything wrong with that!)

Probably gonna get flamed for my comments. I feel for you deeply and I hope you find peace soon. Not for me to say, but you did a wonderful thing, and you continue to - imho, you are a part of each of your child&#039;s lives, they obviously come first, you shared in a way only we (first moms - I love that term) can, you are taking good care of yourself, and you blog for the rest of us.

Peace... ((hugs))</description>
