Day 4: What's Kept You Going?

Day 4: Through your grief process what has kept you going?

Many things have kept me going throughout this difficult time and I'm thankful for every single one of them. For starters, being a wife has kept me going for sure. I have to be there for him just as he has been for me, because he is grieving as well. Demetrius may not express his hurt the way I do (everyone grieves differently) but I know he hurts and I need to be there when he needs me the most.

My friends and family are also what keeps me going. Each and everyone of you have been so supportive and that alone is motivation to make it through. I love you all and appreciate your words of encouragement so very much. Another thing that has kept me going is by writing this blog. I feel as if I can express how I am feeling more easily and it helps to just get it all out there. Just knowing that one baby's life was saved by simply sharing my story has definitely motivated me to share more. I don't know where I got enough strength to write a blog post just two days after I gave birth to Adelyn, but I am so glad that I did because a life was saved. My baby Angel is simply amazing.

Adelyn is another motivating factor that has kept me going as well. I feel as if she is watching over me and I just don't want to disappoint her. I have to keep going because I know that she wants to see her mommy happy and to live a fulfilling life with her in my heart. I love you AJ.
