I started this blog soon after the death of my beautiful 17-year-old son, Hayden, as a way to deal with my grief. I titled it "Dear Hayden" because at first I wrote as if I was writing to him. My use of the word "dear" ended up being twofold: "used as an affectionate or friendly form of address" and "regarded with deep affection; cherished by someone." Many posts are saved quotes, song lyrics, Bible verses, poems, etc. with credit given to the actual authors as much as possible. Enjoy~

Trauma response
From one of the child loss sites
Feeling the need to
be busy all the time
is a trauma
response
and fear-based
distraction
from what
you'd be forced to
acknowledge and fear
if you slowed down.
