Mummy Wurds: October 2010

Documentation of our families and friends grief and recovery after the tragic loss of our young daughter. Thursday, October 14, 2010. Lately I've been fumbling through. I thank the universe (and Reece) for bringing Gabby to us. She was a bright light in our dark existence to be sure. But now that she has surpassed Reece in age, which I was reminded a few days ago, I have lost again. Reece is gone. Her time cut short at only 20 months. But I'll never know who she would have become. But now, it's all I can...

Documentation of our families and friends grief and recovery after the tragic loss of our young daughter. Monday, January 4, 2010. What you can't know. Things are not always this bad.however, truth be told- it's always somewhere just under the surface. Grieving the loss of a child, is a pain that lays in wait. Waiting for your weakest, quietest moments. And in those times, when I've been run down, tired, fed up with the day-to-day - it takes hold. This is what I think about in those moments:. Because you...

For a moment imagine yourself sitting at an easel, with paints in hand, ready to paint a dreamy multicoloured landscape. But with each brush stroke the clouds roll closer and rain drops begin to fall onto your page. You move your paint around to try to mask the water drops but the more you paint the harder it rains. When we were picking names for the n...

Documentation of our families and friends grief and recovery after the tragic loss of our young daughter. Wednesday, January 11, 2012. The time has come to share another step in 'our' process. A few of us had memorial tattoos done. The first being my Dad. Shortly after Reece passed, he arranged to get his first tattoo ever! Which would be a portrait of Reece! He actually ended up getting another tattoo prior to this, I suppose to 'prepare' himself for what he was about to do. lol. Tantrix owner Leanne Th...

This is just a quick note, for all our friends, family and blog followers :) To let you know just where we are with regard to the Park development and Reece Ryde Memorial Park Fund. Most importantly the money must be spent in a way that improves the lives of preschool children in Dundurn. That has always been the goal. Hope we see you in the park :). Live in the Moment.

Documentation of our families and friends grief and recovery after the tragic loss of our young daughter. Saturday, March 12, 2011. We are happy to say that Gabrielle (our youngest, now 2) has now had her tonsils removed. She is a week post-op and is slowly improving. We hope that now that the ineffective glands are removed she'll be able to avoid anti-biotics! Reached honestly) my breaking point. All too often I find myself looking at Grant and saying "It's like Reecey all over again". To complicate our...

Documentation of our families and friends grief and recovery after the tragic loss of our young daughter. Tuesday, July 5, 2011. Cry a Little and Give Thanks. The worst thing and the best thing a grieving person can do, is drive alone in a car listening to the radio. Maybe this sounds ridiculous, maybe this sounds completely reasonable, I'm conflicted. But here's the deal. The little girl from Regina, that vanished from her home. A story that I would imagine kept most parents glued to newscasts for a...

Documentation of our families and friends grief and recovery after the tragic loss of our young daughter. Sunday, May 31, 2009. Re-typed from a journal entry written Sunday May 31. In the faint hope of holding on to her in some small way I smelled the shirt. Right now I look at Gabby and with that I could hold her the way I would hold Reece. Her head nestled into my neck her hand on my shoulder, with her blankie in hand. I know there's no use. It's not the same. I'll never have that back. Today I am weak.
