Dear Stephanie, I have read your post's and I want to express to you how sorry I am for your loss. I have recently loss my mother and father, and even though I am not a mother, and have not experienced a loss of a child, I do know what it's like to lose someone you love, and I sympathize with you. I feel your pain, and I know that even though a year has passed, you can still remember it like yesterday, and you still grieve her, and you still think about her everyday. I know how hard it can be, and how you can feel lost, and almost as if apart of you is dead as well. I'm sure you feel sometimes, how can I still be living, when I hurt so much? I relate, b/c I too still feel that way at times, but I tell you dwelling on the past, will only make you crazy, and bring you down... Celebrate your daughters life, and know that her spirit is always with you, and that you will reunite w/ her one day, and in the meantime, keep doing what you're doing, even if it's getting on here and spreading awareness about this topic! More people need to be aware of how Dangerous this is, and you have already helped me in seeing that! And now, I can relay this information to everyone I know, and hopefully prevent this from happening to anyone I know. I admire you so much for talking about what you have went through, and about what you're currently going through. I too have e mailed Dr.Phil for help, and have no responce, but if he has to respond to anyone, I believe it should be you! I want you to know that you are in my prayers, along w/ your family.... I hope that you will try to stay optimistic, and slowly rebuild your life. I wish you the best of luck with everything, and I I have prayed for your Daughter as well... Take Care.
