thank you so much vasanthi, my heart is so broken, I to am thinking of ending it all. I want so bad to be with my son ( shawn)my only child. without him I feel nothing. my husband is so worried about me, but I just can feel any more. to go on without him is unbearable, being on here I see others who are in deep pain to, who understand what im going through. I pray every night god takes me to my baby. I think together we  MIGHT get through this a little, thank you everyone for being here for me and I hope I can give back to you to. my eyes are so swollen everyday, and everyday is so hard to go on, but im trying, dear god its so hard.  I sleep with his clothes, I wear his coats , I wear his watch and rings, I smell him everyday in them. again thank you everyone for being a friend

Thank You everyone... he was so sweet..... He had Autism... was sometimes a challenge..... My life as well as our whole family revolved around him .... I fought for him at school and was and still remain a strong advocate for the disabled....   I always worried about me leaving him (dying before him) and who would take care and love him like a mother..... but I never meant for him to die at 14..... I can't believe I have continued to breathe for these past 5 years...... I really do miss him....but for those of you "Fresh" to this new life... there will always be a line of the "Before you lost them and After they were gone" ...but you will have a life with some happiness too..... You will always miss and love them... you will still cry...but you will be still breathing 5 years later...... even if right now you don't want to be....

Maybe eternal life is when people still love you and remember you   5 years.... or 50 years after you are gone....   we all worry we will forget them...but we never will.....

Kim,

Please do not feel alone. Love to you and wish you peace and strength for the difficult days ahead.

I have kept coming here the past few days and as I was away, I could use the phone but always find it better to sit with the computer and message you all. New York was nice but needless to say missed Shreyas so so so much. There will never be a time when I will feel the glowing feeling of contentment I think.

Went to the WTC on Memorial day and also had you all in my heart.. we who deeply grieve and who have had such monumental losses that I just feel that even if we are barely functional we are heroic :(

Dolly read your message here wondering how I was.. felt deeply touched that you thought of me. 

btw Saturday evening had a huge row in the hotel with my husband and literally felt like ending it all.... in fact I told him, " lissen why dont you just fling me out of the window?" I think he was stressed with the city and somehow felt that I kept looking to him for everything and wasnt taking initiative...sighhhhhhh sighhhhhh sighhhhhhhhh... what f!@!#$@#$@#@! initiative will I ever feel like taking? and yet everytime I cant keep reminding people that heyyyyy I lost my only son so do you mind and can you be kind? how long will people listen anyway? well Sunday and Monday were fine and often felt I was back in Mumbai. Groton is a very quiet wooded area and I was missing the city life..well just love and hugsss to you all xoxoxox

Grace - what a beautiful boy. I love his smile and those blue eyes! I hope it is of some comfort to know that as an organ donor, he has helped others live on. We weren't able to make organ donations from my son because of it took so long for the coroner to get to the scene. You are very brave and I know your son is always with you and so proud of you.

5 years ago.... tears rained from heaven as I left my baby at Milwaukee Children's Hospital.... to become an organ donor hero.....  Yes 5 years later... I remember.... and I cry.... and I still miss him.....PEACE  for all of us who only have "Photographs and Memories" left  to remember them......

I'm so so sorry. I too lost my son. He was 44. The absolute love of my life. It's a difficult path we are on. I come here every night to read and share what I can. We need each other.
