- About my Loss:
- On March 12, 2015 I lost my friend Nick. He was 26 years old. I met Nick when I first moved to Arizona from California about 5 years ago. I didn't know anybody here. He friended me right away. Most of the people I know now its because he introduced me to them. Nick and I maintained a sweet and innocent friendship. He was very shy and kept is group of friends very small. So I was blessed to be one of those friends. He always gave me the tightest hugs. Took care of me when I needed him. Every time I saw him I told him that I loved him. I am thankful now that I did.
On the evening of March 12, 2015 his older brother went to his house. The door was opened there had been no sign of a struggle. His brother found Nick on the bathroom floor. He had already been gone for a few hours. His brother said he looked peaceful and I am thankful for that. I don't know if I am ready to talk about the exact cause of death yet.
Nick I will never forget you. You were amazing! I will never forget that New Years Even when I ran through the crowd to find out and I found you right at midnight. We made eye contact and you had that grin that I loved so much. We just didn't have the guts to kiss so we left it as the sweetest peck. That memory will remain in my heart forever.

Keep me in your heart...stay there forever.
I had a dream about Nick again last night but I know that this time it wasn't a visitation dream. I dreamt that I was at a hospital and that Nicks parents were there and they wouldn't let me see him. That they were asking me what I was doing there, and telling me to leave. So I spoke to Nick through the curtains and I told him that I was there and I loved him and he responded to her parents that I was there because I was there for him when he didn't ask me to be there and I was the only…

I love you in my dreams
5/15/15: I went to bed. I missed Nick so much. A friend of mine wanted to go out but I just couldn't that day. It was a Friday night. I dint have it in me. So I put on Nicks shirt and grabbed his sheet that his sister gave him when he was 18. I didn't cover myself up with it and just held it and I fell asleep.
Then I had the most amazing dream I have ever had. The hills were so beautiful and green. It was crowded with people. I was walking along when I saw Nick. He was talking to a…

I almost lost you again
5/9/15: I woke up extremely early today to drive to my sons tournament. I grabbed Nicks necklace from where I put it every night on his picture frame. Packed the car and continued on to our two hour drive. Half way through the trip my son asked me to stop to use the restroom. I stopped at as gas station and as I usually do I was playing with Nicks necklace around my neck as I thought about him. My son came out and we continued with the trip.

I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More

Jeanette, I am sorry for the loss of your dear friend, Nick. What a beautiful dream visit you had. Love is eternal, even across the transition we call death.
Jeannette, I believe that Nick answered your call. And he's with you always. Just invite him and be open to those signs, and I'm sure there will be more and more. I am so sorry for your loss.
