One of the most tragic and traumatic losses life can deal out to a person is the death of a son. The death of a son means the loss of more than just a precious life. It represents the loss of future experiences and future hopes. No parent is prepared for the loss of a child, and when it happens, their world is changed forever. The grief, guilt, and anguish felt are acute and lasting. Parents can find comfort in knowing that their grief and mourning are normal and that many other parents have lived through similar tragedies

No words I write could ever say
How sad and empty I feel today.
The angels came for you
Much sooner than I planned.

I'd like to offer my condolences
With a poem I'd like to share.
To all those suffering in this difficult time,
I say a little prayer.
With angels on this summer day,
you never woke; you slipped away.
Now day just dims into the night.

But one child less.
One less open laugh and little boy giggle,
Robert, I hope you and your family found some peace together through this difficult month. I know what it is to do CPR and not have it be enough. I've also had those horrible nightmares and...
