Debbie and I said our final goodbye to Emily yesterday. This was so incredibly hard, and a terrible experience, that I am afraid still has to play out. I think the only thing that kept us upright the last few days has been the prayers, love, and support from our family, ours & Emily's friends, and those our extended "families" from our workplaces and even from the forums like Emily's MySpace and facebook friends, and places like Stunt Hanger. Now we have to learn to deal with the quiet time. While I have obviously not been spending much time here in the Hanger, I have been looking at and gaining some sense of calm from you messages. A lot of you folks who have written - I have never even met face to face, only here in the forums. Many of you are friends of Dad, or other Adamisin family, and many of you know none of us, and wrote simply because you cared. I was also deeply touched with sorrow I now share with so many of the SH community, people who like us have lost our children much to soon. I keep thanking God for embracing Emily in His love, but I was not finished with her yet.
Of course no one know what to say on occasions like this when we lose someone. There are no magic words. However, and please forgive me the psycho-babble, but especially in times like this, what we DO shouts louder than any words we SAY. To those who had the chance to visit, and those who wrote - or even just thought of us in your prayers, what you DID shouts out loud. We really do feel you "propping us up." Debbie and I and the Adamisin Family are deeply gratified and thankful for your thoughts, prayers and messages of comfort.
