Our son died but suicide at age 22 to in diagnosed depression. He left a note trying to tell us why he “couldn’t go on” & ending by saying “we were the best parents” & “mom I love you”. I prayed to God asking for his help. I became suicidal always thinking of ways to end my life. Grief is crippling. But you have to face it, cry your heart with someone or alone as often as you need to. Rather than thinking of what might have been I became grateful for the time & love we shared. Some support groups helped too. I came to believe that I’d much rather miss my son than not having had him in my life at all. Nineteen years later God has blessed as with 6 loving fun grandchildren. I think of my son every day now with more joy in remembrance. Thank you Mr Murray for your poems and thank you Bari for this site
