I feel the same way.    My son has been cheated, our family has been cheated,  &  I as a parent have been cheated----   It all hurts so very bad-  &  just sucks so very bad.

I have not been on since before Thanksgiving; somehow the holidays are days to just get through.  This is not easy with the music and festive atmosphere.  Adrianne, I don't know how you do it with a shop you need to be "on" for others this time of year, the same for you Robin, with teaching little ones this time of year. Life is so changed and no one can fix it.  Grace, I love "NY guy."  I feel sad that the world did not get to see what a difference Sy would have made by his presence here; I am sure that many parents feel the same about their child.  And I just miss him so much... Sending love to all

I just don't feel like a father any longer without my son. I just don't feel like there is any future for me now. I have been cheated by life.

Adrianne   it has been 2 1/2 years and I have may dreams where I am always looking for Niles... and making deals to get him back.... only to wake up and discover that he is not coming back....  But I did make it through turkey days and somedays I just try to act like it is not the holidays.... which is very hard since I will be singing Christmas songs starting tomorrow...   I guess I kind of put myself in a trance to get through it all....But needless to say.... the holidays or even when we least expect it.... we have some low days.... I don't know if it ever changes....

Been having moments lately where the truth of what's happened hits me like a sledgehammer. It literally takes my breath away.

The holidays are horrible.  My son's birthday is in February.  I dread every moment of the day.  It's pure torture.  The nights are the most difficult most of the times.  Another day of not hearing from my son.  Do you ever feel like they are just "lost"?

Adrianne, my husband said that the other day too. I think for me, every day that I don't see my son, Zach, it is becoming more real. I keep thinking if I just stay busy it won't hurt so much, which does help but as soon as I am not, the pain is right there. I know the month of December is going to be so tough, not only because of the holidays but because Zach's birthday is in December. Trying to take it one day at a time, but sometimes you can't  you have to plan for different things and then I have to face that he won't be there. Thinking and praying for all of us missing our children today, and every day.

This is getting tougher.  Why?

As much as this every day almost every hour crying hurts I think it releaves some of the pain. Until it builds up again. Trying to cope all day at work is difficult. I have noticed the pain and suffering is worse when I do that. Woke up this morning crying and depressed after a 12 hour Christmas event our store was part of. I really think one can die of a broken heart.

Go hear every day to read how other parents are dealing with the loss of a son or daughter.  We all share the same thoughts.

Now I have a question that perhaps only a few here can help me with.  Have any of you lost a child due to a tragic suicide?  Been 13 months, 11 days and 6 hours since our Jason took his life.
