A Parent's Guide For Suicidal And Depressed Teens - Plot & Excerpts
We can't always will or demand a replacement. Often we receive a friend when we are least expecting one. When Rachel and I were talking about all the lost things we missed, she remembered losing her favorite stuffed animal when she was three. After all these years, she still missed it! It was a turquoise elephant that played "You Are My Sunshine." She lost it in a house we were considering renting. When we got home after looking at the house, she realized her elephant was missing. We drove straight back to the house and looked in every room, but couldn't find it anywhere. The people who owned the house hadn't seen it either. The mystery was never solved. A few days after telling me about her memory, she walked into a music box store and discovered a green dragon that played the same song. It wasn't soft and fuzzy, but it was a close enough match. After thirteen years, and after many other soft animals, she finally felt content with her loss. Maybe it was also expressing her feelings that brought the resolution.
