					<description><![CDATA[Hello my name is Jay. A relative sent me this site. I just lost my 22 year old son on 11/05/21. I have a completely empty and broken heart, I shed tears but haven&#039;t completely broken down yet,  I wonder too what is wrong with me, I can&#039;t get to that release of emotion, wish I could but after all I&#039;ve been through and now this I just don&#039;t know. I lost my best buddy, he took his life. I have no answers, just emptiness and sorrow. The only thing that gives comfort is I believe he is with GOD, and although he&#039;s gone he&#039;s probably doing a lot better than me. I seen a lot of replies from Mom&#039;s and I&#039;m sorry about all of your losses, but it hurts us Dad&#039;s too. God bless all of you. Thanks Emily for this site.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I finally found something that relates to me and my family.   My Son passed December 30th, 2020 He was 32 .  I think about him day and night. We Miss him terribly.  It true even my best friend I thought would be there more for me was not. Now I feel hesitant to talk abou my Son to her cause I feel she might think oh no not again. This might not be the case but this is how I feel. No one knows until it happens to them. His Birthday is coming up , We are celebrating his life . I already know how hard this will be.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[My son passed away on 3-3-21.  He was 51 years old and died of metastatic brain cancer. It was unexpected and devastating.  His father and I had to make the difficult decision to let him go. It happened so fast.  I don’t know how to live this life because nothing is the same.  Your words help give me clarity and validates my pain.  Thank you for sharing.]]></description>

Linda,  I lost my daughter on October 19,2015.  She was 36 years old, she left 3 daughters at the time they oldest was 17 and her twins were 13, please don’t let anyone tell you when your grief should end. It’s been 5 years and it seems like yesterday. I go through the motions daily. But I am broken, I will never be the same, it this is a normal feeling when you loose a child of any age. 
Remember the beauty your child brought into your life,  I will keep you in my prayers.

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m so glad I found your letter on Pinterest it has helped me. My son went to be with the Lord on January 27th 2020 he had a massive asthma attack he was 30 years old. I feel like it&#039;s a waiting game I wait for him to come home, I wait to hear his voice, I wait to hear his laugh ,I want to see his beautiful face come through my door  but God gives me bits of Joy everyday to lift my heart. I know he&#039;s in heaven and he&#039;s doing great and he can breathe so much better now and his soul is well. I miss him more than words can say<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f494.png" alt="💔" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f497.png" alt="💗" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>
