Thank you so much for your kind words.
I lost Jeremy suddenly due to spinal meningitis that he had came in contact with when I took him door to door trick or treating. He was pronounced brain dead on this day Nov. 5th but they kept him alive on machines till the 8th. Thus falsely giving me the hope he may recover. Their intentions were to give me adequate time to deal with his condition so they could ask me to donate.
I understand the need for this but it was wrong to give me false hope only to then ask me to sign the papers to turn off his life support. It was hard enough to deal with losing him but to turn the machines off was and will always be my neverending nightmare. I do not just have one day to deal with in my mind.. I have from the 5th to the 11th when they buried him.
Even after all these years… the anniversary of his death and all that was behind it… is tortureous to my soul.
My only comfort is my faith. Trusting that we again will be together. Also my daughter and my new grandson bring peace to my spirit.
The sufferings that we go through in our lives can lead us in many directions. Be it good or bad. It has taught me empathy, compassion, understanding and the ability to truly respect and love all living things. Ok I will stop at that (smile)
Again thank you so much for your kindness!
