@NextMrsDiamond1989 My heart feels for you, may God comfort your heart and there is nothing to replace a child!!

Thanks God that my daughter still alive but lost her for a different reason.

I can not go on another day with out my children. I died inside the day I lost them.

@pennyawful13 I feel every word you say Penny and share it with you. Mother without children is like shore without waters.

Mona, I have lost my daughter due to her stepfather and stepmother convincing her of stuff that is not true. I have not had any contact in over a year and it is the most important year of her and my life. She became a first time mother and that made me a first time grandmother to a beautiful little boy Caleb. I cannot even have pictures of him unless people steal them for me. I absolutely bawled during this video. I dont know how to let go.I know she is gone, my heart aches.

@HarryXGinny4eva Harry, thank you for sharing your intimate story with me. It must have beenveyr painful fo ryou going through that. However, giveing up is NOT the snwer. Keeping on trying to find your daughter, inquire about her everywhere to built a good relationship & with time she'll learn what was inserted in her mind was not true when get to know the real you. The joy and love you will experience is VERY rewarding. I feel for you and cry with you. May God help you.

was your child taken from you? if so where to? my 13 wants to go to the middle east she is so mad at me for not allowing it but her dad has spent years trying to keep her away from me now her & I have a bumpy relationship because he has convinced her I am crazy I do see her twice a week but I am scared I may lose her forever if he takes her to Jordan.

@Hellfire798760870 Every woman needs her mum. Especially with a new child. No matter how mad I was at my mum for the stuff ( I thought she had done adn said but hadn't in the end ), I just wanted her there at the hospital. Especially as I nearly died as did my daughter during the birth. Life is too short. Make contact. I regret all the wasted time.

Good luck. A letter is a good way to start :)

[Hellfire798760870]

@HarryXGinny4eva She wrote me letters of apology and that was what got to me first. Made me doubt all that I had been told. Now i see her every week and we have a good

relationship. She just dotes on her.

Hi, I have been in your daughter's position. My gran (on my father side) and my own dad ( divorced a long long time ago ) took advantage of a situation and I never spoke to my mum through my whole pregnancy and 4 months after my daughter was born. My daughter was my mum's first and only grandchild. I thought I was protecting my daughter. It was only when my mum kept pushing and pushing for contact that I gave in.
