Thank you.  I know she will, deep in her heart.  It's hard being an attached, close family and then not seeing her.  We spent so very much time snuggling and cuddling.  I know it made an impact on her, and I know I'll survive.  My kids miss her.  I really give huge credit to those foster parents who do this over and over again for years on end.  They are really powerful people, heroes in my eyes.

My heart is breaking for you and your loss, I'm so sorry and I cannot imagine all that you've been feeling.  This PP said what I feel as well.  Blessings to you, what a wonderful, loving person you are.  She will definitely remember you and your love, even if she was too young to recall you as an individual.  I also hope that someday, if you want, that you two can meet again and share your bond again.  Be sweet with yourself.

It's so sad that she was taken from you, but it's so great that she got to spent those precious years in your care and love. I'm so sorry. I can't even stand to imagine how difficult this would be.

Thank you.  As time passes, I am starting to see that maybe it will be okay.  No, she won't live the same life I would give her.  And yes, there will be struggles.  She is already at a greater risk of being removed again given the vast history, but her mom is holding it together so far.  The truest sadness that remains now is that which hurts not knowing her.

Loss takes so many forms.  I am sorry for the stupid things people may say to you (I don't mean on MDC, I mean well-meaning folks you may live near or who may be aware of your situation) that are just so wrong.  You have lost a child and will go through the same grief process as any other mother.  Much love and support to you.  I am so sorry for your loss.  I hope that, as a PP said, she will be returned to you and also hope for her safety in her current home.  Bless you.
