For all the Mothers... who aren't.

[Lady Legs]

Mothers day is a pretty difficult day for me, because, like many other women out there... I am a mother, without a child.

So, for all the mothers who have miscarried, who have given their children up for adoption, or in some other way lost their chance to raise a child... I want to say HAPPY MOTHERS DAY.

Today we won't be given a construction paper card with a childish "I love you" scrawled across it, covered in pictures of a stick-man mother. Today everywhere mothers are being acknowledge and celebrated. And we will be forgotten.

True, we haven't spent this last year wiping snotty noses, changing dirty diapers, and wiping finger prints off every surface in the house. But many of us would give our front teeth to. And while I may never, like so many others out there, be able to bring a child into this world, god damnit, I will take this day, and use it to celebrate the fact that I, and so many other's out there like me, are mothers.

So, Happy Mothers day out there to all the women who have children to love and to hold. And, Happy Mothers day to all those who don't, but almost did.

[crystalraver2001]

jesus, i think i'm gonna go slit my wrists now. how fucking depressing.......

[Lady Legs]

crystalraver2001 : Do not post again in this thread. This may be an open board, but I will not ask, I will inform you, to keep your fucking comments away from THIS thread.

When I put my personal feelings up I don't like watching little shits try to degrade them.

Wow...I say this to you, Lady Legs...Happy Mother's Day.

I never really thought about it before and though I cannot claim to even almost be a mother, someday I will be...

That post really touched me.

[crystalraver2001]

hey you know what....i looked at the thread because i AM a mother. thought it was gonna be a happy thing. it wasn't. it really was depressing. and maybe if you don't want people to reply to your personal posts.....DON'T POST ANYTHING PERSONAL.
and i'm 25.....no longer a "little shit".
try harder next time.

lotsoflove,
crystal

crystalraver2001: if you really aren't a "little shit" anymore than maybe you should stop acting like one!

Mmmm....that sucks, Lady Legs. All I can say is keep your chin up and keep trying! I'm sure losing a child was one of the hardest things you've ever gone through. I'd hate to lose mine.

[DJ Rawkus]

*puts a diaper on and sucks his binky* hey dina, be my mommy? eh?

no disrespect was used in the authoring of this post, and any events contained within are strictly coincidental. :D

[RaveBabe]

Awwww I'll think of you Dina! I'm glad you posted this because I never really thought of it that way-this must be a hard day for you! I hope someday you get the chance to be one *MAD HUGZ*

Love Always, Rebecca

[*Shae*]

...thank you dina. :)

[Lady Legs]

*puts a diaper on and sucks his binky* hey dina, be my mommy? eh?

Nathan... I already pretty much AM your mother. Now, if you aren't home by one tomorrow your GROUNDED and I'm taking the car keys.

And for those who aren't exactly sure where I am trying to go with this thread, it's not just for me. It's for ALL OF US who have problems getting thru this day.

crystalraver2001 I am rather suprised to find out your out of Junior High. From now on I won't acknowledge your posts on this or any other thread. Your a waste of my time.

[Headphones Dude]

Dina,


You remind me alot of myself sometimes. You're a survivor. You can take the worst people have dished out at you, and still stand tall. I miss seeing you (and your short, short miniskirts) at the parties. I wish I could see you more often just to hug you. I had no idea you ever mis-carried, and it takes alot of guts to admit something like that. Most women I know tend to think it's their fault when that happens. Usually it isn't, because their body just isn't ready to have a kid.

Crystalraver 2001. Maybe if you knew Dina, you'd know what a wonderful person she is inside and out, and maybe you shouldn't be so quick to judge a woman who miscarried. How would you feel if YOU miscarried. You'd be one of the very women Dina was describing, and all the joys you appreciate as a mother now, could have been taken from you. Try THOSE shoes on for size, thinking of life without your precious son or daughter. If you appreciate the happiness your kid brings you now, just think if you never gave birth. You'd maybe see things from Dina's point of view. So happy fucking belated Mother's day to you Crystalraver 2001........

Bah.

[Cookee]

I feel ya! Im not in yer boat, but i never thought of that, im sorry dear.

Happy Mothers Day to all of you!

[Diglett]

I'm sorry I'm late but I wanted to say to Lady Legs that I am a mother who adopted out a beautiful baby girl and I know how you feel. Mothers to be and adoptive mothers don't get a day of celebration although it hurts. Know that at least one person out there knows what it feels like and know that I was thinking about all those mothers out there yesterday. Happy belated mothers day to you all!

crystalraver2001: I am rather suprised to find out your out of Junior High. From now on I won't acknowledge your posts on this or any other thread. Your a waste of my time.

My thoughts exactly, Lady Legs. It's usually best to simply ignore people who are only there to throw out immature, inflamatory comments. If you don't acknowledge their existence, maybe they'll go away. She did the same thing in another discussion I was having with someone in RR, and added nothing but a juvenile insult toward me (Sparklefreak... gee, that's original, Crystalraver!) instead of an actual opinion on the subject at hand. So yeah, I think ignoring this idiot is the best option! :D

And Happy Mother's Day again, Dina!! I haven't met you yet but my heart goes out to you!

k, so it's not mother's day anymore, but happy mother's day! ;)

[Sparklecheek]

By the way (not to detract from the real subject, which is Dina, but...) does anyone else besides me see the similarities between this crystalraver2001 person and that freak from Florida, lotsofxtc? I know you old schoolers remember... it was 2 assholes named lotsofxtc and moderator (married, I believe), they came on here and made such fools of themselves that they were kicked off? Remember? Well, I see the same kind of kindegarten responses coming from this crystal person that I saw from lotsofxtc, and lo and behold, their profile is nearly identical...

Funny, that... :rolleyes:

[*badmouse*]

good call, sparklecheek!
and didn't they claim that the reason they were checking out nwtekno was because they were moving up here soon?

yuck.

[Godlike]

Dina: since i am neither a mom or a mother, i'll just say that you're more of both, than most people i know, for a lot of people.

Bah.</STRONG>

i have had a miscarriage. so i KNOW where these people are coming from. i read the post thinking it was a happy mother's day thing(be being a mother now)so i looked. then felt depressed. and said how i felt. i make no appologies becasue i don't think i "hurt" anyones feelings. and why post something THAT personal for the whole entire world to see if you don't want me to say how i felt about that thread. duh.

yeah because i didn't like you before. and do you want a biscuit for putting 2 and 2 together?

[sothis]

so you admit you are the same person?

well then. in that case, lets count how many seconds it takes for your new alias to be banned also.

[Ken Ja]

As long as you possess the gift of giving life, you are a mother. Always remember that!

[Sparklecheek]

Word. I really hope the mods will get on this one and lock her out solely based on what happened last time. I HOPE the mods haven't already forgotten about THAT one!

and didn't they claim that the reason they were checking out nwtekno was because they were moving up here soon?

Yup. Apparently they're in Beaverton, according to the profile. I knew there was a reason I avoid that town like the plague! :D

OMG Dave... that almost made me cry. *hugs*

[Enkidu Kind]

I just read this thread top to bottom, and my heart goes out, as it always will, to mothers that have lost their children. Dina, I had no idea you had lost a child. I wish I could say that I understand how you feel, but I can't. I hope some kind words will suffice. I know more than a few women who have lost their children, and its something that no one can recover from 100%. Props to everyone whos hearts go out to mothers who lost their babies. *Big Virtual Hugs* :) :) :)

:) Chris :)

PS- it's too bad someone had to come in here and turn a very emotional thread into a flame war. Very bad taste, my friend. Have you no tact? *cough*crystalraver2001*cough*
