How Does one Recover From the Death of a Child Due to Addiction?
February 4, 2017Reflection on 1,000 (and counting) Blankets
July 7, 2018Because of Justin……..
I have gained a new purpose, new friends, new hope, and a renewed sense of life. Justin’s death was the spark for all I am now thankful for. He is the inspiration and the reason for Blankets of Love South Bay which has opened up new paths for me and an exciting future.
Through Blankets of Love South Bay I have been blessed with so many new friends that I never would have known otherwise. We all share a common passion for knitting or crocheting but all these wonderful women truly want to make a difference by donating a blanket to help babies in need. I know Justin’s spirit has touched them and encouraged them to give. Nothing could make me happier. As I sit with my ‘close knit’ group on Tuesday afternoons, I marvel at the kindness, compassion, warmth and friendship that emits from this group. All of us were strangers only a few months ago and now we truly enjoy the comradery that we find in this amazing group.
I am so humbled and thankful for all that has come to pass since my boy left this Earth. I just know it will continue and through love and compassion even more will join this cause.
Because of Justin………
