Today Vic’s youngest son turned 15. It is his first birthday without his Mommy. As a family we have dreaded it.
Vic was a birthday person. Banners all over the house, balloons, singing, speeches and lots of laughter. Vic loved parties especially when they were her sons’ birthday parties.
We cannot do what she did. It would not be right to do what she did. We need to create new traditions around birthdays.
It is a day filled with pride and heartbreak. I know many people will think and say that Vic is smiling down from Heaven on her baby boy today. I know she is weeping. Vic never wanted to die. She so desperately wanted to live. She wanted to be at her sons’ birthdays, tell them how proud she is of them…Vic wanted to mother her boys herself…
The day has come and gone. We all hid our feelings so well. We laughed, smiled and sang….
Tonight when I get into bed I will weep with my child for my grandson…
It takes real courage to keep living as I’m sure Vic would want you all to do. Happy Birthday to your beautiful grandson!

It is wonderful that you can continue the family tradition in memory of Vic and her son’s memory of his mother.

Tersia, because of trouble with my pc I don’t know if you got my possibly eccentric- looking message I posted here. I couldn’t find your email address to send it.

It’s an honour, Tersia, to be used as a channel by Vic, who’s courage I greatly admire.
