You've cried at weddings, right? At the birth of a baby? And, of course, you've probably cried at funerals, but have you ever stopped to wonder why both happy and sad events, make you so emotional? Even worse, do you often feel like you're the only one? I will impart wisdom gleaned from professional conferences, seminars, books and articles and/or I will blog my personal thoughts. Either way, I hope you check in often, so you know that your tears are never shed in a vacuum!

ADDENDUM
After publishing my last post and then re-reading it, I couldn't help but feel just plain AWFUL that it SOUNDED as if I was downplaying the loss of my daughter over my son!!!! OMG!!!!! My entire world would crash and burn if EITHER ONE of my kids died before I did!!!! However, because of my recent encounters with 3 mothers who had lost their sons, that was the emphasis of the blog. I just needed to set the record straight for my own peace of mind!! I do hope that you all already knew that, but I just had to make sure of it!

About Me
- Ms. Baby Boomer-dang
- Dallas, TX, United States
- I am an educator and consultant, in the field of loss and grief. I love educating others, as well as learning from them, about life's little and big, happy and sad losses: marriage, divorce, moving away, losing one's health, aging gracefully.....or not......death of a loved one, a pet, a dream, children growing up and parents having to let go, etc. etc. Hopefully, you get the picture. Let's laugh, cry and learn together!
well being your daughter i didnt take any offense! i knew what you meant. but could hardly read it because i dont even want to think about any of the scenarios anyway! but i appreciate what you have to say and the shining of your bright light upon these topics as always.
