I really understand
Quote From: mlazanis2003It was just one year on 7/16/06 @ 1:40am that I lost my son James to the monster/deman of addiction. Everyone that new him and met him loved him.
He worked 24/7 and owned nothing. He was a carpenter and was building the Panthers homes here in NC.
My heart aches all day and all night.
Only a mother like you really knows. I, also, lost my only child, a son, Danny, to an accidental drug overdose, Aug. 9, 2003. He was 27 years old. Time helps, but never does an hour go by that I don't think of him and how terribly much I miss him. He worked too, but, like your son, didn't have anything to his name. He had moved back in with us, after helping take care of his grandmother, after his grandfather's death. He moved back out 13 days before his death. I dropped him off at a friend's house (he lost his driver's license on a DWI) on Friday afternoon, and he was gone on Saturday morning. What helped me thru the first year was a website called Compassionate Friends.com, which is a monitored site for parents that have lost a child. Also, the love of friends and family, who would let me vent, just listening. They couldn't FIX it, but were there for us and still are. I, also, saw a psychologist for several months. I will pray for you and you for me that we wll find peace and know that we will see our sons again someday.
