Howl in Cyberspace

posted 04-03-2002 09:12 AM                    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi guys, My son who had been battling kidney disease since last April past away suddenly on Friday 3/29. Fortunatly, we had many conversations about the afterlife etc. I believe he was prepared for this as one possibility of his condition. We had just completed the final tests so that I could be the donar the previous Wednesday and were planning on contacting the surgeon after Easter to set the date. It's ironic sometimes the hand life deals all of us. I loved my son dearly, and am thankful I had the opportunity to many times tell him how much I loved him and how proud I was of him for his attitude and strength through this difficult time. He wasn't particularly religious, but I know he's in a better place, free from the afflictions which bound him in this life. I'm not doing this for pity! Just to remind everyone, young and old how short a time we all have in this world to communicate with those we hold dear. If you're like me, you sub-consciously feel there's all the time in the world to make things right. There's not. So this is my Howl both to the unfairness and beauty of life. May we see it for what it is,... and cherish the moments. Love to all. bags123 Written April 3rd, 2002 © on Apr 03 2002 12:21 AM PST   0 • 1
