Don't stop missing her, don't stop wishing she were here, don't stop wanting her back. I have a few pictures of Elena and there are moments that I look at the God Gifted smile and tear up. We too miss her, we too wish she were here, we too hurt for you and your family. Yes, we all need to move on, but I understand, there are days still that I gasp for air because I want my dad back. We love and miss all of you. Oh by the way if you get this, Jeff and I are moving to Nashville! Dear Daniel

Happy birthday. I hope you enjoy your 50s to the fullest. You continue to inspire me, and I was glad to see an update. Best wishes to you and yours.

Your sprint-marathon concept is expressive, visual, and poignant. Your words inspire me. Maybe this year I'll finally have the strength to simply get the track shoes on my feet.

At intervals I go through my list and take certain blogs off but although you stopped posting I still could'nt bring myself to delete yours just in case a post might appear again one day. So, from across the other side of the world may I wish you a belated "Happy Birthday" and thank you so much for all your pearls of wisdom. Val I too read your blog and added it to my favourites.

I hope that time has brought you some peace. I first read this post when my wife was pregnant with our third child. It moved me deeply then and it still moves me to read it now. We named our daughter Elaina and I think it had a lot to do with reading about your daughter. Every once in a while, when I look at her, I think about your family. She turned three in July. I try to always remember, with each of my children, that each day is a gift. Hi. I hope that time has brought you some peace.

After my son's death 'Dear Elena' became a lifeline and inspiration. I was sad when it looked as if you stopped writing here and happily surprised when I saw a new post. I hope you are back, sharing your thoughts and your wisdom. The person who left that comment that you refer to, clearly has never lost a child and I have further doubt if he/she was a regular follower of your blog because I cannot imagine anyone who had really read your story to be so cold and heartless.

I came across your blog and immediately though of a book that you might like. The book I'm thinking of is called Replacement Child. It's a memoir written by Judy Mandel. I think you would like it as it's inspirational, <a href="http://www.replacementchild.com/" rel="nofollow">hopeful and uplifting</a> . It can also be funny in some parts too. A real great book to cuddle up in front of a fire. Happy belated birthday also, hope it was great. I came across your blog and immediately though of a book that you might like.
