I started this group because I'm tired of feeling awkward in other moms' groups where childloss is not understood.  I'm tired of grieving silently.  I'm tired of pretending I only have two children (instead of 3) in order to make others feel more comfortable. I'm tired of hiding my pain and putting a smile on my face. I'm tired of pretending like I'm a normal mom when I'm not: I'm a bereaved mom and nothing will ever be 'normal' again. Bereaved Mamas is a compassionate and healing group for ber …

As non-theists we generally do not wear a symbol around our necks that allow us to reco …

A group for French Bulldogs, their "parents", and friends (human and animal) to get together and play!

When I was growing up, my parents would play Pinochle with my Grandparents. When one would have to get up, they forced me to sit in and I HATED it. Now, I'm an addict. I play online (Double deck on Yahoo) But I miss the feel of the cards, casual conversation, and oh, gloating a bit :) So I'm starting this group to see if there are any others out there. Bring your best game :)
