Dear Alice...I am glad you found us. {I say "us", because it's almost like family here}. It is a hard thing we go through...I still can't believe that "I" am going through this. My son Jordan passed away 4-29-07. And it seem like just yesterday. He was only 23 years old. Your son was only 3yrs old? What is his name? Just a baby...and you know, no matter what age they are...they are still our babies. I am praying for you, Hun, and I am grieving with you. Write me anytime you need to talk. luvdablues@roadrunner.com
May the Lord bring you {and all of us} some peace. ...............Leslie

Dear Alice,
I'm so sorry for the loss of your young son. We can all understand and relate to the pain you're going through, so I hope you keep writing. It really helps.

Hello Everybody....
I don't know how you all are doing...I imagine the same as me. Today is a hard day. I went to the cemetary today to visit Jordan. Brought him some flowers. He loves sunflowers, so I got a big bunch of them. He was 6'4" tall, and always said that .."they were one of the only things that could grow taller then him". I sat there at his marker and trimmed around it so that the grass wasn't growing over it. I trimmed around the brass underground vase. {I used to trim a turkey on Thanksgiving}... Everything looked just as it should be....except for me being there in the first place. I am having a real hard day today. I am just so lonley for his hugs. I wish this pain would stop cutting me so deep. Keep me in your prayers...you are in mine. God bless you.... Leslie

Thanksgiving was very hard and I cried most of the day; the first of the major holidays without our son. We had a picture of him at his place at the table and lit a candle that had last burned when we ate together the night he died. I still can't believe this has happened, it just seems so unreal and unnatural. I wonder how I'll get through his birthday 12/24 and angel day 12/28.

This was my first Holiday knowing that my son was no longer on this earth. When my phone woke me up indiating I had a text message, I laid in bed and cried. It would not be from him. There would be no phone call, no e-mail. no I love you mom. I held my sons ashes close to my heart, felt so empty and just cried. Thank God for friends who convined me to go to their home for dinner. With the help of my friends daughter and her children, I was able to get through the day. Playing with her 5 year old son and 1 year old daughter was bittersweet. I know Ric was there in spirit, as he was and always will be in my heart. I love you,Mom

Some people think that GOD "takes" children from their parents, as some have been told. Some children die in accdents, as adults do. But all of us have inherited sin, we are all imperfect. We were born in a system in which everyone -both the good eventually dies (Eccl 9:5) However, it is a comforting that God will reunite children with their parents by means of the ressurrection..John 5:28,29

My 29 year old son was murdered on March 28, 2009. I am sick. I still can not accept his death. I don't want counseling, I don't want grief support, I want my son. He is a father and a brother and a uncle and a friend. He had a life. He was on his way to his nieces birthday party. Why? I did not even get to see him that day. I did not know he was going to die. Why? How can anyone go on after this? It just does not make since to me. He did not deserve to die.
