Hi, I'm Kim and I'm a survivor. Dictionary.com describes a survivor as a person who continues to function or prosper in spite of opposition, hardship, or setbacks. If that sounds like you....... come on in. Your at the right place. Let's survive together.

KIM AND HER HUSBAND BRAD

After losing my youngest son Josiah who was 17 to a car accident and then 10 months later losing my oldest son Gabriel who was 24 to an accidental overdose, I couldn't do the 9 to 5 thing anymore. I needed inspiration to just get out of bed. If losing your two sons isn't a hardship, I don't know what is.

Browse around and you'll get inspired. Here you will find everything from "work at home" opportunities to decorating your home to grief help. Sometimes just planting a flower bed or painting your living room wall a funky color can lift your spirits. Other times you need an Oasis to run to so you can survive.

After the passing of my sons I searched the internet over for comfort. I stumbled onto angelmoms.com. It saved my life. The founder "Judi" is one of the most beautiful people I have ever met. She is a living example of what a survivor would or could be. I'm an "Angel Mom" and I want to inspire others to go on. I called my son Josiah "Baby Boy" and he called me "Mama". His friends called him "Joe". I'm Joe's "Mama". Welcome to joemama-survivor.com.

If you had to take a break from life and found yourself wondering "where do I go from Here?" I believe I can inspire you to take another step even if it's a baby one. If your anything like I was (a basket case) you have probably been thinking about NOT going back to your regular job and instead thinking about how you could be your own boss on your own time. I know my boss wouldn't of thought to kindly of me saying "I think I'll stay in the bathroom for an hour and cry over my sons". We can explore some different options together here.

Ever have a bad or sad day and just start lighting some candles and changing some pictures or furniture around and see your mood changing? Atmosphere is everything. Will it bring your loved one back or cure your crisis? No, but we're talking about surviving here. Sometimes going to a nursery with beautiful flowers and picking a few out and bringing them home to plant can give you some great inspiration.

Have you ever did something in honor of the loved one you lost? It makes you feel so connected to them. A memorial Tattoo, a memorial wall, a place in the garden reserved just for them. I have all three. It's so healing. I'll be telling you how to find great tattoo designs and showing you a picture of mine. If your surviving a divorce skip this part unless you want their picture with a circle around it and a line going through it. Humor helps us heal too. Come on in. Take that first step. Your a SURVIVOR.
