Hi Beth - I, too, lost my only son at age 24 in January of this year. How are you doing? I honestly feel as if there is nothing for me to live for.

dear Beth, never need an apology- i was not expecting to hear from you right away as i know how difficult those days can be; but i was glad to hear you were not alone and had the support of family and friends all around you. take care and i hope we talk soon-- gina

Hi Cindy,
How are things going with you ? Brandon would of turned 21 on the 16th of july so we had a candle lighting service at the grave. It was very nice. I finally started seeing a counsler that week so we will see how that goes. Let me no how you are.
Beth

Hi Beth, My email is Cas463@zoominternet.net

dear beth, i am thinking of you and remembering your Brandon on this day you are both in my prayers very sincerely, gina

dear beth, thank you for your message and i do understand exactly what you mean about these dates being so hard as we lost Brandon on july 30th and buried him on aug. 4th only two days before his mom's { my sisters} birthday aug 6th, and his birthday was june 16th. { so we in a sence will be experiencing these same feelings over our Brandon's toether } and i will also be praying for you Beth and for your family-- i hope you have someone to talk to but if you ever want to share anything/anytime about your son i would be honored to listen-- gina

dear beth- this is one of the last pictures taken of my nephew { my sister's only child } and like your son he was also murdered-also shot in the head on his way to the bus stop to go home from work {being robbed of 12.00} and his name is also Brandon-- this happened on july 30th 2009 and i just wanted you to know that you are not "alone" and we know what you are going through and i wish i could comfort you in some way but i also know there is not much comfort to be found -- as we mourn the loss of our Brandon i will also be thinking of you and your "Brando" as you call him and know beth that you are not alone

This is my Brandon who died August 2 2008. He was the most wondeful son anybody could ask for. I miss you Brando and love you with all my heart. Until we meet again. Love your Mom.

Beth,
I'm so sorry for the tragic loss of your son. It's so difficult losing them and to not get any answers makes it worse. My 37 yr old son,Jon,had Cerebral Palsy and went out for lunch with "someone","somewhere" and choked on, what the ICU nurse said was meatballs. He was without oxygen for 9 minutes and ended up brain dead. No answers of who he was with or if anyone even tried to help him or if they just figured that because he was handicapped, he was better off dead. So many unaswered questions not only hurt but they drive you crazy imagining what transpired. I'll be praying for you. Hugs of Hope,Kathy
