WHY I HAVE BEEN MISSING IN ACTION LATELY

On March 21st, my only child died.  I have been trying to go on without him and luckily I have a great husband and friends who have been helping me through this nightmare.  My son, like most mothers out there, was one of the largest parts my life and losing him has left a large hole in my heart.  I hope to be back soon once life settles down.  Your thoughts and prayers would be most appreciated at this time.

Thank you,

Marianna Larew
