    Everytime I see a new post, I ask God to give you comfort. I haven't lost a child of my own, but I have lost a lot of high school students who were in my program. I also lost a wife and my dad. I know the pain. I ask God to give you grace to help you at this time.

    I'm so very sorry, lost my 2nd son in Oct 2004 (He was "at least" grown, 33 years old) and it was tough. It has to be even harder to lose a young one.

    shdwlkr here is a belief that helps me through times of grief I hope you'll find some comfort in it.

    I think of death as a ship putting to sea. We stand on the shore with heavy hearts and watch that ship fade over the horizon. At the same time those family members and friends who have already made that journey are waving and cheering a ahearty wecome as that same ship grows larger and larger approaching that distant shore.


    With All my Prayers

    We know your pain

    We lost our son 3 years ago, to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
    He was 21 years + 1 day old.

    We had lots of years to try and prepare for the inevitable, but I'm not sure how much it mattered.
    It does get better, I can now, after 3 years, finally talk about Tom without getting choked up.

    No parent should have to bury a child, but it happens far too often.
    May God's loving hands hold you and comfort you in your time of grief.

    I have a daughter and am very sad to hear of your loss. My wife and I lost our first child over 10 years ago. He was only 10 months old and I can only imagine how much harder it would be to lose a child after so much time has passed. I can only say that in my case, each day was a little easier but the pain has never gone away. I pray that God will be with you and your family during this time.

    The absolute sorriest thing a parent will do is bury their child. It goes against the natural order of things. While I haven't had the situation personally, it has happened in our family, as I'm sure has happened in most families. We have to press on...

    One of the most endearing sights in the world is the vision of a naked good-looking woman leaving the bedroom to make breakfast. Bolivar Shagnasty (I believe that Lazarus Long also said it, but I can't find any record of it.)

    Sorry for your loss I just noticed this board on the forum never noticed it before so that is why this is so late.

    To all who have sent well wishes. Some time has passed but I still wake up and hear her feeding pump go off or her laughing because she had made a mess for us to cleanup. I still have some things to do to close out all things dealing with her but will get it done sometime.
    We are looking at moving as being here in the same house she was in is just plain bad. So we are looking at moving to Idaho to be in a totally different climate etc.
    Thank goodness the wife is a nurse and they need them all over for me finding work is harder as not every place wants roadwork skilled people.
    Thanks again to all for caring

    I just saw your thread. My condolences. I begin to weep just thinking about it. I hope you don't mind me saying a prayer for you, and your family. May you find a comforting place soon.
