Geraldine, how nice to get the dream.. anything even a little small glimpse is such a blessing.. i yearn for that...when i first got the news on the phone, i thought.." God U made a horrible mistake, reverse it please-- it cant be-- he is such a good boy, did u make a mistake as people say God doesn't make a mistake, but if you have reverse it pleaseeee"... its all like something burnt me --my heart n body was burning.... i wonder often where is he NOW... how when all his life we spoke every day , right from the time of conception, why this silence now... /i tell him sometimes,' don't be so mean, you know without you , the world isn't the same.....' he comes in my dreams too... love to you all here ... i admire Anne, who having lost 2 sons is reaching out to others-- hats off Anne.. will do the same and make my life one which will be of use to others-- that is the medicine needed now.. Jane, Connie, Marilyn,Michelle, Teresa... and all whom i havent named as there are so many wonderful people who are suffering so much.. my heart goes out to you all and i feel and wish that everyday gets a bit lighter than the previous one-- our children are with us... love to them and all of you.

Here it is:


"Keep Me In Your Heart"
(Warren Zevon & Jorge Calderon)

Shadows are falling and I'm running out of breath
Keep me in your heart for awhile

If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less
Keep me in your heart for awhile

When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for awhile

There's a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sometimes when you're doing simple things
around the house
Maybe you'll think of me and smile

You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on
your blouse
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
When the winter comes keep the fires lit
And I will be right next to you

Engine driver's headed north to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for awhile

These wheels keep turning but they're running out
of steam
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Keep me in your heart for awhile

Dearest Michelle, my heart goes out to you today. There is little I can say but that you are not alone and that the love between you and your child will never die. Sending hugs and prayers to you and everyone

Marilyn, I know music really opens the soul. I know how sad it can make you because of that. I used to sing "Sweet Baby James" to Daniel at bedtime when he was little and when I hear that song I crumble. Then a few months ago I realized that in the lyrics it says "Now the 1st of December was covered with snow...." He died on Dec 1. Sometimes I really do wonder if there is a grand plan. If that really was "his time" or the result of a senseless, reckless act by the driver of the car he died in. Or would he have died anyway? So many questions all the time. But I do find solace and beauty and truth in music. I wanted to share these lyrics to a Warren Zevon song he wrote while he was dying. You have probably heard this before as it was a very popular song

Sending much love and prayers to all my friends here.

I also feel scared and I feel so lost.

Life is forever changed, I'm forever changed.

As I social worker I would tell families, "your just caught up in the storm, so we just have to find the sun and start walking towards it."    Problem is I can't hear my own words and I certainly can't find the sun.

Five months ago today...my life forever changed.

Comment by Jane P on August 21, 2013 at 7:27pm

Marilyn, what a beautiful young man. What a beautiful smile.

Connie, thank you for your "share". So full of love. I would love to hear you perform "Dancing in the Sky".

It's another sad day for all of us.

But it's another one almost over.

Best wishes to all.................

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. 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
