Jodi,I know your pain. I found my son in bed on a Saturday morn.And at that point I felt my life ended. Autopsy showed he had taken too much cough syrup with codene. He had a bad cold and dr. gave it to him.He was 38 and was MY LIFE. Born with Cerabral Palsey, bu6t became an ordained minister, preached 4 churches, made a tape ministry and touched lots of lives befor leaving this world.He will be 39 the 27th,and it's still SO hard to beleve he is gone.I lost nearly my whole mind that day, and I know things are never to be the same again, in my mind.God Bless you God does help us get through itLV DEE

Jodi, my sincere and heartfelt condolences on the loss of your son. My own daughter (and only child) died last year on Memorial Day. She was only 33. I cannot begin to imagine the loss of 2 children. Please continue to visit this site and let us know how you are doing. I know I found so much compassion and peace here knowing we all shared the same devastating loss. I also found sharing with others here eased some of my anxieties...there are truly no words or phrases to define the pain of what we feel or how our lives are changed forever. Know that you are not alone...
Laura

Thank you, Jodi. Like you, my daughter was my life but yet continues to be my life. My greatest fear is that she will be forgotten...

my little girl was hit by a truck while riding her bike...she died instantly I know my daughter did not suffer but the sad thing for me is that I was not there I was about 50 miles from my daughter my car broke down and I could not make it to her that bothers me more than anything knowing that she died in a ditch my heart breaks eveyday and my youngest son saw it all wish I could have held her one last time! yes there is a big hole where my heart use to be and no matter what I do right now I cant not fill the void! I will pray for your son Jesse and I will pray for u as well!

You will always be in my prayers of positivity! Chin up.

Hi how are you? I just ain't doing good at all.

I still send Mark Ecard like we used to do. I use to love getting them from him. I have a tribute page for Mark that I made. I do things on there to. I miss him so much. I miss being held and holding him. I miss him rubing my hair until I fall a sleep. I so much want to be with him. He was so good to me. We always took care of each other. I feel like I failed taking care of him. I talk to him all the time and tell him how much I love and miss him.

There are no words to tell you how sorry I am....the loss of our children cannot be explained or put into words except to talk about the great and happy times we had with our children. Grief is no stranger to me either....my son was found dead this last Thanksgiving morning from an accidental overdose of morphine plus a good eighteen years of drug use. My heart goes out to you during this tragic time.

Just checking in on you Jodi. I haven't been here for quite some time since my husband and I have been in a severe accident. Sent us to the hospital and rehab for two months and just getting ready to get the ok to learn how to walk again. Hope all is going well for you. I'm here.

Just saying hello Jodi. Having a tough time and just thought I would check in. Hugs.
