Every Day in Every Way He Remains My Boy As a mom who has lost a beloved son, I belong to the Moms support group. Each time we start our monthly group meeting, we introduce ourselves and our children whom we have lost. I smile and say, “I’m Cindy. I lost my son Erik with a K.” Our sacred time of sharing is truly the only time in my life where I get to speak about him without having to think twice about other people’s feelings. In the outside world, I wonder if I will make people uncomfortable speaking of him, if it will seem like it’s been too long since his death, or if I’ll hear pity in their voice. Most times, I’d rather just stay by myself and not have to play any of this out with other people. However, in this one group, lasting only an hour and a half a month, I am free to speak about Erik in any terms that fit the conversation without fear of having to watch my words. Each month, surrounded by other moms feeling all the same emotions, I am reminded of what an anchor this group provides in my life. As I found out, life so often changes on a dime. On an early spring day, as I was leaving the beauty parlor, my son Brian called me. He broke the news that Erik had been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. I’ve often heard the phrase ‘it brought me to my knees’. In that horrific, shocking moment, I slid down the wall, hysterical. https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/2026/3/01/finding-courage-strength-and-friendship-after-loss monthly 0.5 2026-03-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/477746a7-18cf-469e-b82b-ab1f2b9e652d/Matt+Barbour.jpg Stories of Hope - Finding Courage, Strength, and Friendship After Loss Amy’s husband, Matt. https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/wait-and-hope monthly 0.5 2026-02-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/67028141-eab7-4b60-889d-3a2c421f1032/Katie+Horowitz+Photo+-+Jeanie+Perkins%27+Daughter.jpeg Stories of Hope - Wait and Hope - A Story of Hope — Written by Jeanie Perkins Katie lived with courage and empathy—someone who noticed others, stood up for what was right, and quietly made the world gentler wherever she went. After Katie’s sudden death during the height of COVID, her mother’s grief was deep and disorienting, yet anchored by the words Katie loved most: “wait and hope.” Through the Grief and Loss Center, Jeanie found steady presence, compassion, and a place to heal—learning to carry Katie’s legacy forward by living with hope, connection, and peace. https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/the-cowboy-who-showed-up monthly 0.5 2026-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/40bb45e0-cba0-4c5b-9ddb-41e356a26875/Picture2.jpg Stories of Hope - The Cowboy Who Showed Up After years filled with love, adventure, and hardship, losing my husband, Kelly, challenged me to find new meaning and hope through grief.

Within three months, we got married. Ursula's four grown daughters welcomed me into their family. Ursula had a wonderful personality, a dry wit, and people liked her. However, like me, she was more of an introvert than an extrovert. We both preferred a quiet evening at home together rather than going out on the town with others. Ursula's health decline started quietly and slowly. Increasingly, she became frustrated when simple tasks became difficult, then impossible, to accomplish. Ursula loved to sew and knit. When her daughters were growing up, she sewed them school outfits. Then, as the grandbabies came into our world, she delighted in knitting and sewing for children once again. Ursula also prided herself on her math and accounting skills, which had aided her in her career in banking and with the FDIC. Then it started. She could no longer balance her checkbook. And, devastatingly, she could no longer thread her sewing machine, much less sew with it. Ursula's acuteness, her awareness, and even her mobility were all diminishing. https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/2025/4/17/help-others-find-support monthly 0.5 2025-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/1630466693717-M92K82EINM2PZLU9FGF0/Jane-Grandfather%2BSosebee-1953.jpg Stories of Hope - Help Others Find Support https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/grief-grad-and-dad monthly 0.5 2025-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/a0d8bd33-688a-4a5d-811c-de22d0b14c3a/Isaiah+Mendoza+and+Dad.jpg Stories of Hope - Grief, Grad and Dad Isaiah and his dad, Camilo. https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/siblings-find-hope-after-family-homicide-through-sams monthly 0.5 2025-07-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/4f329274-1a20-4a41-adda-b45c3b7bb3cc/LindyDobbins_SOH.jpg Stories of Hope - Siblings Find Hope after Family Homicide through SAM’s Aidan and Madison’s Aunt Lindy. https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/my-sweetest-ashna-defiantly-happy monthly 0.5 2025-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/1751293000839-T12DP4EB09RI37HKTGLL/AshnaandDrWagle.jpeg Stories of Hope - My Sweetest Ashna: Defiantly Happy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/1751293000737-E4T6IDURS8DSI1K2AGAE/Ashna%27s+Poem.jpg Stories of Hope - My Sweetest Ashna: Defiantly Happy https://mygriefandloss.org/stostories-of-hope/how-sams-helped-us-heal-together monthly 0.5 2025-05-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57068b99859fd04e29e60dd9/5a65e416-4e5b-4b8e-b54b-45c2de6d3596/Stew+and+Raine.JPEG Stories of Hope - How SAM’s Helped Us Heal Together - Stewart and Raine After the sudden loss of her husband, Kelly and her daughter found themselves navigating the overwhelming reality of grief without a roadmap—until they discovered SAM’s Place at the Grief and Loss Center.
