Daniel, I lost a child too, and I am sad but I am hopeful. God is with you, and he sometimes does not answer right away, but I have learned that we are all given a number of days to prepare for that final day, and we don't know when our number will be called. My child was 5 and she was my only daughter, I hurt a lot but I must press on for the other siblings to survive. Death is alive, and Jesus has not taken it out of this world, yet he gives us tools to prepare to live after death. Don't allow grief to take your life away from you, your son would not want that for you, with all the strength and courage that is in you, pull on that and weep! Yes I said to weep, because it cleanses the negative emotions and you will feel better, but know when to come out of that place, do not stay there long. Keep your head up and pray for faith to keep moving
Thank you Danielle for responding. Today has been a hard day. I spoke withthe coroner and it seems as if there is nothing going to be done to the drug dealer that sold my son a fentanyl patch. Just another dead drug addict but that drug addict was my son, my baby and he tried so hard to get off pain medicine it just defeated him again and again. I just thank God that he was saved and was serving the Lord, I'll never know what posessed him to leave his newfound sobriety and use again, but I know his struggle is over. If I can just find some peace in all of this. Have an awesome day and thanks for your feedback and comfort. I really think this forum is helping!

Danielle, my heart goes out to you and your family. Your son sure was handsome and on his way to a great life but God had more important things for him to do first. Ive come to realized that after i lost my daughter "Misty Rocha" at the age of 21 delivering her still born child. That God does know best, even though we grieve and immediately blame him for a bad decision he made. After 3 hrs of seeing her still born "Misty" I wondered what was going thru her mind, i couldnt prevent any pain and then she was gone also. Unbelieveable, why? how dare he take her too! i had blamed God for all of it. But no long did i realize what the gain was from my daughters loss. As our children are a gift, we dont really know for how long and then when its time they must go and i think go and help him with others in heaven. Your pain will pass, although u must go through your time of mourning. God bless and may he carry you with his wonderful grace that he carried me through.
Hi Danielle,my name is Elaine all I can tell you is to Go to God. He is the only one that can heal our wounds,and aching hearts. Its been three years for me and my heart still aches. But Danielle don't do like I did and get sick,I had a brain anueurysum 1 year after Kris death. My Kris was a New Orleans FireFighter and left behind his fiance and two sons. The Dr. said it was from so much stress and depression,heartache and pain. Our family lost everything with hurricane Katrina in 2005,than Kris death in 2006 it was so stressful for me.But I know it was GOD who delivered me from the tragedy with Kris and heal me from my brain aneurysum in 2007 while driving on the 1-10 in Baton Rouge,La. I hit 3 cars and two cars hit me than I hit the bridge with three grandkids in the car with me. So I know GOD was in the plan and have something here for me to do. My Kris and I had that love where he would call me every day and nite. When we see each other I knew I had a bear hug and a kiss. I miss him so much.I can't say any more,no one knows how I feel. I am not alone now,I have,I call this Site my family who knows how it feels. If a person have never been there,than yes they can just imagine. Thats not like in those shoes feeling it. I know God is our only answer now,so lets trust and believe that God will deliver us from all our heataches and pain. Elaine
What a beautiful smile, and good looks your son has...It seems a mother and her son always share a special bond... I hope you find peace
