My beautiful son Silas passed on from cancer on May 27th, 2008, he was only 29.  May 27 is a day I will never forget, watching my lovely and funny guy take his last breath and move on from his life here.  He died way too soon; he was looking forward to so much in life.  Cancer took my son quickly; less than 8 months after his diagnosis.  It was in his spine, and in his bones, and the pain was unbearable.  Still, Silas kept his humor and determination.  I have put together a short video on my son with footage he began to take as soon as he was diagnosed, as well as footage of others who love him so.  I have also started a fund for young adults with cancer; Sy's Fund.  I have included that link as well

Thank you for letting me share my beautiful son here...

We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More

"Hi Rosa, First, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Losing someone you love only two days ago is incredibly painful, and it’s understandable that you’re feeling unsure about what to do right now. Personally, I don’t…"
