((((((((((Orange Blossom)))))))))),

I know there are times in our lives when it seems that tragedy never ends in our lives.....one thing after another to the point like you said......'you can't take any more".

What helps me at times like this is trying to realize that each person has their own time that isn't based on what I am able to handle. As we know in our minds that there is a time to be born & a time to die. Trying to focus on what my mind knows rather than what my heart feels is what helps me get through times like this when I am feeling so overwhelmed.

I know when I was going through a similar period in my life, I found these words that also helped a little:

You don't get over it, you just get through it.
You don't get by it, because you can't get around it.
It doesn't get better; it just gets different.
Everyday grief puts on a new face
Wendy Feireisen

I know there are never the right words at a time like this....please know that we are here with you not only for the good times, but through all the impossible times too.
