Last Tuesdays Compassionate Friends Meeting

We all have had to do it, take that first courageous step to attend a TCF meeting. We all know how hard it must have been. To come to a meeting of bereaved parents that you don't know, the fear of breaking down and expecting the unknown. There has to be a hundred reasons not to be there. I remember our first night, I didn't want to be there. I went for my wife God Bless her, she was the catalyst for what I do today.
You and Sue will only find understanding and comfort in the company of other bereaved parents at our meetings. We are at all different stages of our grief journey. Taking that first step to attend a Compassionate Friends Meeting is the first step on the road to recovery. It won't happen overnight, but as the months pass you will begin to notice change. There are no words to describe the pain you both feel and we know that our words cannot take these feelings away. We can only sit beside you both as you suffer and work through your grief. This is a safe place and the meetings are good medicine. We hope to see you at the June meeting.

Thankful to be a Compassionate Friend.
