My 4th Day Without Teddy Options

[rsmiller]

Well, today will be the 4th day without Teddy. The past few days have been so tough for the whole family, but I do think things are starting to get a little better. I think getting out of bed in the morning is the hardest. It is such a disappointment to get up and see once again that Teddy isn't here. Although I am beginning to believe that in spirit he is always with us, sometimes we really can feel his presence. I guess that makes sense though, he is a part of us, so he will always be with us. I know this might sound strange, but I woke up at 5:00 yesterday morning, thinking of Teddy and crying, of course. I went and laid on the couch in the family room. My daughter had left a stuffed horse toy on the floor. It's one of those toys that if you squeeze the ear, it makes a galloping sound and the sound that a horse makes. That toy started making sound on it's own. It has never done that, you have to squeeze the ear to get it to work. I really do believe that it was Teddy trying to tell me that he is o.k. I hope that doesn't sound crazy, but I have to believe that. I want to thank everyone here for all of the support and understanding that you have been giving me. It has really helped me get through the last few days.
