I have been a member of eBay for almost 6 years; buying a little, selling a lot.  And, I am just discovering all the wonderful groups and blog and MY WORLD!  I guess I have been too depressed to really look at it before.  I know I joined one of the "loss" groups some time ago, but I never really checked back into it.  It was too painful at that time.  I lost my son, Eric, age 29, in an automobile accident on April 1, 2004.  I miss him so much--he was truly my best friend.  We did so many things together--shared a common bond in music (and I miss that--I can't even listen to what were our favorite songs.  We used to battle it out with Scrabble games that lasted endlessly.  He was so amazingly intelligent and I learned a lot from him.  He graduated from Northeastern University with a degree in Electrical Engineering.  I would love to hear from people who want to talk about how they have coped or not coped with their losses.  Eric's birthday is coming up October 19th and that is such a difficult day for me.  Thanks for reading!

I don't even know if I put this in the right place--if not, could somebody kindly fill me in as to where I can write this type of blog, or is it okay to just write it as I did?  I also put it in my blogs, but for people who do not know about all the things available on eBay, just thought I would put it here too.
