You have been in our thoughts too, and our tears and hopes. I was hesitant to post to this thread, since sorrow can be so private, but I know what it is to be bereft, and wish you all the warmth and comfort possible.

Thank you Mirdath … it helps to hear from people - letting me know that we are in prayers and thoughts …

I shall keep you as well in my prayers, for you may possibly be a member of ‘the club’ … a club no one wants to be long to …

THANK** YOU **MOE. ❤️

You are in my thoughts…

Went to playgroup yesterday and as it is in our Parish Centre i got to talk to Fr Tony and i paid for a Mass for daddy and he said that he can do it on Sunday at the 8am Mass, which is the one that i normally attend… So i am grateful for that.

We are extremely close, a bit like your beloved family i gather… Our poor Braden gets suffocated with hugs and kisses… We just can’t seem to leave him alone for long… the poor thing… From mama, dada and nanna especially! Poppy isn’t too affectionate with him but adores him just the same! Darren’s mum ❤️ passed away when he was 15, but she sees Braden from heaven… along with my daddy ❤️. Have to kiss, hug, tickle and play with him all day long as one day being a boy he will tell me** “No mama and dada** (we prefer that to mummy and daddy as that is how he began calling us, but now it has gone from mama and dada to mummy and daddy and now to mum and dad! (heartbreaking!) and my baby has gone from my baby to my toddler and now my toddler is growing into a real little boy and it is breaking our hearts! ) ****STOP KISSING ME!” ****

Praying that your week is a wee bit better than the last one… Remember honey - one day at a time! Really do hope that Amanda had a great weekend, and that you somehow got to relax and have a little bit of peace…

Hope the Red Sox win this week, my team have a bye…

As always,

❤️

That is great – Mass is the highest form of prayer …. Glad it worked out for you … I think you did the right thing to have a Mass said!

Our Mandy is wonderfully affectionate! KK wasn’t as much – but when she was … wow!

Praying that your week is a wee bit better than the last one… Remember honey - one day at a time!

More like one hour at a time 

Really do hope that Amanda had a great weekend, and that you somehow got to relax and have a little bit of peace…

**She had a great time which I was so happy for her … she has taken so much upon her shoulders … I worry about her. **

Hope the Red Sox win this week,

They aren’t doing very well … but we are still like 11 ½ games ahead of the New York Yankee’s!!!

my team have a bye…

Dearest Moe,
there is not a day that goes by that I don’t think of you. Are you working? How often do you visit KK’s grave? Does it help?
Are the books helping at all?
You are in my prayers.
Love, Lissa
 
Dearest Moe,

Hi Lissa:

there is not a day that goes by that I don’t think of you.

**Thank you … we need prayers so desperately — the sadness is just overwhelming … **

Are you working?

Yes, I drag my feet out of bed every morning … it is so hard …but our communities are still making dinner for us and that has been a God send … I am so exhausted by the time I get home … I don’t feel like cooking!

How often do you visit KK’s grave? Does it help?

Oh it helps tremendously … I try and visit 2 times a day … but sometimes it is hard to get there twice … but I definitely get there once a day …

Are the books helping at all?

Yes, they help a lot … I am a reader … so my guess it is good therepy for me … what I like most of all about reading – is that people who have gone (going through) the same hell on earth that we are, find hope one day … that is why I keep reading … because right now there is NO hope for us … the pain is just unending.

You are in my prayers.

Please keep them coming … they are a God send. I have been trying to call upon my guardian angel more often … I pray that KK’s guardian angel met her and brought her to our Lord.

Love, Lissa
Love you too, Moe
 
Moe, just wanted to let you know I’m thinking of you and your famly and I prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet for you last night. It always brings me comfort when I’m in despair and I hope it brings you comfort also.
 
Lord, I pray for the repose of the soul for dear McKayla, a child who served you in word and deed. May her family be strengthened in their grief, as they offer up their suffering and obtain the consolation of the Holy Spirit. Blessed Mary, Our Holy Immaculate Mother, pray for this family and reveal to them the Sacred Heart of your Son, Jesus Christ.Through your prayers, obtain for them the grace to persevere and be a witness to the value of human suffering and life. Amen.

A bye occurs when a team does not play when it usually does. For instance, if a soccer team always has a game on Saturdays at 8AM, then one week it doesn’t, that is called a “bye.” They’re usually scheduled.

MASONDOGGY - thank you so much … God Bless you!

Cam-masta - thanks so much … we need the prayers desperately.
 
Hi Moe ❤️

Thinking of you all…

I am happy that Amanda is affectionate - there is nothing like a good cuddle and a kiss from your mum and dad… And i am happy to know that when McKayla gave affection - there was tonnes of it and you can’t beat that can you???

Stratus Rose got the ‘bye’ bit right…

I am SO relieved that a Mass will be said on Sunday for daddy… I really am not looking forward to going to sleep Saturday night or waking up Sunday morning… Things have already started to slip… 😦 Way earlier than i expected. I have been trying to psych myself up for this… Maybe that wasn’t a good idea. :confused:

Thank you for keeping me in your prayers - i’m afraid of this coming weekend. I really thought that i would be more emotionally mature this year… but alas, it does not seem like it is going to be the case… one day… I want to go looking for a huge rock to crawl under. If only God could just fast forward a couple of days huh?

Keeping you in my thoughts, heart and prayers.

As always,

❤️

Thank you Lori … went to see McKay twice today — how it still doesn’t seem possible that she is gone.

Please continue to pray for us …

Loving you,

Moe

You don’t have to ask…of course, I will always pray for you!!!

Moe,
Still praying here in Oklahoma. You have people all over who are holding you up to the Lord. Keep praying to God and to your guardian angel, and also to our Blessed Mother, who understands better than anyone what it is like to lose a child.
Dearest Moe, just keep walking one foot after another; you will get through this and we will do our best to help.
Love,
Lissa

I hope it doesn’t seem like I am complaining all the time, just missing her desperately.

We are getting ready to head out to a school board meeting … KK’s team mates petitioned the Amherst Board of Selectmen requesting that they name new soccer fields in town in honor of McKayla … they voted for it hands down and are presenting it to the school board … who called us and asked us to be in attendance … Isn’t that amazing? She will be remembered long after Greg and I are gone …

God is good … I just wish he could have left KK with us.

Loving you from NH.

Moe
 
Hi Moe ❤️

What an honour for you, Greg and Amanda. I know you would prefer to have McKayla here than have soccer fields named after her, but it really is a beautiful gesture and shows what sort of girl McKayla was - very loved and admired obviously!

I go into McKayla’s site and Isabella’s posts always make me cry…yours too!

It is truly beautiful Moe.

As always,

❤️

**Family and Friends:

Tonight, the 7th Graders at Amherst Middle School, dedicated their End of the Year Concert song … Seasons of Love, to McKayla. KK was asked by her Chorus teacher a few months ago to play the Seasons of Love piece on the piano for the ensemble tonight … And KK had been practicing for a couple of months … The song is from the hit Broadway Play RENT … I have attached a video of it … I guess the Chorus decided to go with a recording, instead of someone playing it on the piano.

Tonight we also attended a school board meeting in which KK’s Amherst Soccer Team (U13) petitioned, firstly the Amherst Board of Selectman (a few weeks ago) and then the Amherst School Board, to have one of the new soccer fields (next to the High School) named after McKayla …To see her team arrive, rushing from their concert, in their uniforms (just as emotional as the team showing up in their uniforms when we buried her a couple of weeks ago)… and then all of them going up to speak on KK’s behalf (Katherine Dillon was the spokeswoman) … was an incredible experience … a very emotional experience … a humbling experience … if not a very spiritual experience. Not only that … but the strong support from the teams parents was and is just amazing … and to think the KK’s name will continue on, long after our journey on earth has ended …

I sit here, typing this, and I am so moved by all the efforts made by our communities, both Mont Vernon and Amherst …McKayla, we are positive, is blown away by all of this ‘fuss’ … Our beautiful girl will live in our hearts every day of our life (not missing a heart beat) … but let us make a difference … let us be everything that we can be … everything that God wants us to be … Let us make a difference like KK did in 13 short years … It amazes me what she accomplished … really without even knowing it … God is definitely good!

Please continue to keep us in your prayers … we need them!

Loving you from Mont Vernon!

Enjoy this link … It is an amazing tribute … I saw the words and I didn’t get it … but when I watched this video … and I got it!!! KK we miss you every second of the day … but we know that you are amazingly happy and no worries are with you … Loving you from home, Mommy.
