Life
is short and then you die as the saying goes. This is true of my
only son who passed away at the age of 32. He was a smart, funny,
tenacious, healthy (or so I thought), good looking, extraordinary,
precious and fun loving soul. How could my baby grow into such an
impressive man only to die without being married or having his own
children? How can I go on knowing that my line has ended with my
son? In the beginning I wanted two children. However, my son was
perfect in every way. How could I top that! I suppose two children
would have been better. What can be said of a mother outliving her
child! The pain, hurt, anger and denial that has consumed me
during these past nine months has been excruciating and final. It's
time to turn back to researching and writing. Two of my favorite
pleasures. Maybe I can exchange my grief for advocating for my son
and other parents children. For now, time is the enemy that must
not win.
