You are my angel..You are my star. You are missed in the hearts of many and our lives will never be the same without you here with us!!!
"Missing someone gets easier everyday because even though its one day further from the last time you saw each other it's one day closer till the next time you will." unknown
DANA MARiE REGAN .. Fondly remembered as Dee, LilBoo, Mini Mooch, and Dana ReReborn on May 15, 1995 and was MURDERED on March 11,2008
I really don't know where to begin to say Thank you all so much for being there on Danas Angelversary!! I do know that each one of you have touched my life in a way in never thought possible...I want to send out to everyone the biggest hug ever and tell you without your love and help this journey would be impossible!!!!
NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS FOR BEREAVED PARENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS...WITH MUCH RESPECT AND LOVE
I Resolve:
• That I will grieve as much and for as long as I feel like grieving, and that I will not let others put a time table on my grief.
• That I will grieve in whatever way I feel like grieving, and I will ignore those who try to tell me what I should or should not be feeling and how I should or should not be behaving.
• That I will cry whenever and wherever I feel like crying, and that I will not hold back my tears just because someone else feels I should be "brave" or "getting better" or "healing by now."
• That I will talk about my child as often as I want to, and that I will not let others turn me off just because they can't deal with their own feelings.
• That I will not expect family and friends to know how I feel, understanding that one who has not lost a child cannot possibly know how I feel.
• That I will not blame myself for my child's death, and I will constantly remind myself that I did the best job of parenting I could possibly have done. But when feelings of guilt are overwhelming, I will remind myself that this is a normal part of the grief process and it will pass.
• That I will not be afraid or ashamed to seek professional help if I feel it is necessary.
• That I will commune with my child at least once a day in whatever way feels comfortable and natural to me, and that I won't feel compelled to explain this communion to others or to justify or even discuss it with them.
• I will keep the truth in my heart--the truth that my child is always with me in spirit.
• That I will try to eat, sleep, and exercise every day in order to give my body strength it will need to help me cope with my grief.
• To know that I am not losing my mind and I will remind myself that loss of memory, feelings of disorientation, lack of energy, and a sense of vulnerability are all a normal part of the grief process.
• To know that I will heal, even though it will take a long time.
• To let myself heal and not feel guilty about not feeling better sooner.
• To remind myself that the grief process is circuitous--that is, I will not make steady upward progress. And when I find myself slipping back into the old moods of despair and depression, I will tell myself that "slipping backward" is also a normal part of the mourning process, and that these moods, too, will pass.
• To try to be happy about something for some part of every day, knowing that at first, I may have to force myself to think cheerful thoughts so eventually they can become a habit.
• That I will reach out at times and try to help someone else, knowing that helping others will help me to get over my depression.
• That even though my child is dead, I will opt for life, knowing that is what my child would want me to do.

♥ ♥ This is 'IT' ♥ ♥
You Should Be Over "IT"...But What Is "IT"?
It's been over a TWO years now, you should be over it. What exactly is "IT"? But do people who have never suffered loss really know what "IT" is?
To Us, the Bereaved...
"IT" is the day after the funeral, and your world caves in with reality of the loss.
"IT" is Thanksgiving Day, trying to find something to be thankful for.
"IT" is Christmas without the Merry, and New Years without the Happy.
"IT" is your first day back to work when every minute you are afraid you will burst into tears.
"IT" is their birthday, but there is no them to celebrate.
"IT" is Valentine's Day only this time no hearts and flowers to share with them, and your heart is broken.
"IT" is your birthday, and there is still no them to celebrate it with.
"IT" is springtime when everything comes alive except you, that is.
"IT" is Easter and everyone is singing "Let us Rejoice and be Glad" but there is no rejoicing and no glad in your heart.
"IT" is Mother's Day and you sadly remember how happy being a Mother of four beautiful children made you feel, or how you celebrated with ALL your children.
"IT" is Father's Day and you sadly remember how happy being a Father of four beautiful children made you feel, or how you rejoiced with your spouse over the birth's of ALL your children.
"IT" is the 4th of July and the celebrations remind you just how little you feel you have to celebrate now.
"IT" is vacation time and you just stay home, because there is nowhere to go to not feel so empty.
"IT" is Halloween and you pass out candy, but you remember all the memories of past happy times together and it makes you very sad.
"IT" is seeing milestones in your life progress and pass and your loved one is gone, never to share them with.
"IT" is seeing your remaining children get married, have children, all the milestones in their lives, and you are not there to rejoice with us.
"IT" is looking at the moon and wondering if they see the same moon like the two of us always did in the past.
"IT" is receiving the first wedding invitation to one of their friend's wedding and knowing that life goes on without them - our beloved one.
"IT" is going back into that church for the first time and remembering, but not remembering and feeling that all eyes are on you.
"IT" is going to another funeral for the first time and feeling yourself shaking all over, too distraught to stay, but unable to leave.
"IT" is tryin to do all the things you always did, plus all the things you had hoped to do together, and doing it all when all of your energy has been used for grieving.
"IT" is being strong when you really feel weak.
"IT" is dealing with all the legality of estates and such when all you want to do is hibernate .
"IT" is a whole big bunch of stuff you didn't ask for, didn't want and can't even give away.
"IT" is going to the cemetery and seeing the monument with their name or even face. and it hits you in the face that THlS IS REAL!
"IT" is feeling like you are betraying your child when you get begin to give some of their personal belongings away.
"IT" is approaching the first Angelversary of their passing and each one to come, and reliving it all - oh yes, some things might be better but the void is no less, forever.
"IT" is people forgetting and you cry, and people remembering and you cry.
"IT" is a future of unknowns and uncertainties and emptiness.
"IT" is in the first glimpse of sunrise and in your last waking breath, and even finds ways to creep into your sleep and haunt you in your dreams ...
So maybe when someone tells you that you should be over "IT" by now, you should just tell them what "IT" really is!
Do any of you understand 'IT' now???

HAVE YOU DECORATED YOUR TREE?
.
My tree is clothed in dark and light And I sit before it in the night Remembering how, with loving care, A child once hung those trinkets there And though the tree seems fully dressed Alone, I now must hang the rest Then the tree with greater love will shine With memories of that daughter of mine.
. I hang the sparkle from her eyes That shone each day with sweet surprise, I hang a gentle heart-shaped kiss And a glowing ball of childlike bliss. I hang a bow of loving charms, And a hug she once held in her arms Now every light will hold a part Of all the memories in my heart For though my grief will never sleep Her heart would break, and she would weep If we never again felt the Christmas Joy That was so much a part of my angel girl.

April 13th**I want to thank everyone for there phone calls there stopping by and their memories n candles n pictures.
It helps our family to no how much she was loved and to the people that took her, life how much u hurt and destroyed so many lives with ur calious act.
One arrest has been made and we are awaiting others!
Today we will again try to make it through another day n pray that dana is sendin the strenght to do that. We will someday come to terms that Dana will never be here to laugh, sing, giggle, play, hug or live. We no she never wanted to go to sleep forever and her family is fightin hard to make sure the people responsible for this will be held accoutable for her going to heaven. We must all remember that the victim has no rights. So danas family will push to make sure what little in life and justice there is we will get to make sure dana can rest in peace. So we just want you that we THANK YOU for your support and strenght through all of this dark journey we now have to travel.
****The people of Westchester have the right to know that your children are not being protected. The District Attorney Janet Difiore doesn't care to get involved unless it's easy. Difiore only puts out promos about how she cares and she is combatting crime but on the other hand she told me there is nothing she can do. Yes there is something YOU can do. Get in the real world of these young peoples minds. The laws ARE ARCHAIC. You need to get with the times to day or more childrens blood will die on your hands. I quote from "one parent to another...." well WHERE ARE YOU NOW!!!! The web and myspce are now telling you something and this is the message...As long as you are under 16 years old it doesnt matter you can get away with anything and probably get probation.. Join a gang they protect you more ... GREAT MESSAGE!!!!!!
Dee, you will live forever in our memories and hearts!!!!
DEDICATION OF A PARK BENCH ----we are having a park bench dedication to dana for anyone who wants to come it will be on August 1st at 6pm. the rest of the info will be posted on her myspace and her website. Please bring a white balloon with something written on it , will be releasing white bolloons with sayings on them at the park bench that has a dedication plaque going to be put on it. I hope you and anyone else can make it.
If you want to read something that will be ok tooo. Please come so that you will always have a place to visit DANA!!!!
lOVE CINDI
FOR DIRECTIONS PLEASE GO TO MAPQUEST AND PUT IN THE DESTINATION....899 TUCKAHOE RD YONKERS NEW YORK
