    Remember we are all God;s children and one day when you go to God, you will see him. Just pray and accept Jeshua and trust in him. I wish you all the best, with love.

    I have no words to comfort your loss, except to say that while your son walked on this earth, I'm sure you kept his dreams alive... Peace be with you

    i know what your going thru i lost my wife in 96 and my oldest daughter in 2007 the drs. told me that cause she was born with a certain disability kids her age don't live past 30.so it is hard you will never stop missing the one you lost but hes still with you,in your heart and soul and your memory and thats whats important to remember along with the fun you shared and the smile on his face and also remember he is in a special place in heaven where he gets to be the fireman he wanted to be and hes watching over you .and always will.so if you at times feel like talking with him but think people will think your crazy go ahead and talk he'll hear you its what i do.my prayers are with you.

    So sorry for your loss. Its great that you hold on to his memories.. most people try to hide from the past because they are scared to confront the pain.

    My Niece passed away not to long ago, and my sister and myself find enjoyment in doing something on her birthday every year. We release balloons for her age. She would be 3 this year, so we each let off 3 pink balloons with memories and thoughts written on them.

    Im sure you have your traditions that you do, if you dont mind sharing, i would love to hear them.

    Am very sorry to read of this. We have 3 separate families, friends we know well, who lost children in the last 3 years, so we have shared in some part in their loss. Our sympathies.

    Oh gosh, I am so sorry. I can hardly imagine your pain. You've touched my heart with your words (and I admittedly I am crying for you and your son right now). Sending you so much love and support right now.

    My heart is hurting for your lost :( but I'm glad you have memories of your son, I'm also glad you can share your memories with us! It makes me feel good to be a mom of a 9 year old girl,even though I want more and can't I'm grateful. It makes me want to live and the now and don't stress about the future. Every time I see a fire truck or a fire fighter I will know a angel is by. Thanks

    Your son will be always with you no matter where he is You heart and his heart are connected and will always be.

    Hes propably watching you from above with a huge smile in his face ^_^ being proud that he had a mother like you. A mother who wanted her son to fulfill his dream.

    Who knows he might already have in his new world

    Saying I understand your pain is a lie , I don't I don't think it's fair when there are so many people who are death row that should die in place of an innocent child , I do admire your strength and pray that god makes right this wrong you have had to endure ...

    I'm sorry, I could feel the pain as I was reading your story. I'd seen it also with my mom when my brother passed. She was mourning deep inside for years and we thought she was ok. But there was a day when she had mentioned my brother and that time I'd seen that my mom hasn't let go, then I told her "he (my brother ) was given to you temporarily to take care while he was here and you did your part well, and now he has to be somewhere else and in a good place". After few days I'd seen the enlightment in my mom's words and and I felt that she had let go . I love my brother and priceless memories stays in my heart as always.
