I feel your heartache and despair StarBright, truly. The loss of a child, at any age, has an overwhelming and indescribable impact on those that love them. I lost a very special friend in August in a road accident too, he was 21 years young. Each day I think of him, each day I miss him. I'd like to say it gets easier, but so far I feel the same-like I have a pebble in my shoe (I feel it, I don't like it there, it needs to be fixed, but its still there at the moment). I suppose though i've learnt to get slightly used to that feeling.
I once heard a saying that 'the loss of baby was the loss of a future, the loss of an adult is the loss of a past'. In our cases, the loss of both your Angus and my Jason is the loss of their futures and their past.
They are loved beyond this world, this life and well beyond our words.
Peace and positive light xx
Thanks everyone... it's just really sad... I keep thinking about him and how his last moments must have been, and then he's just gone. No more crazy Angus stories I think it is kind of worse too because it had been awhile since I had seen either A or T... DH ran into them on a few job sites recently, but they never made itout here for a visit... so I am actually racking my brain to try and remember the last moment i saw him... I think it was the day before we moved and i went around to their place to borrow something (and to give him $20 that we owed him!!) But I do rememeber I gave him a hug that day, i think that was our goodbye.
I think it will be a long time before I stop thinking about him and about T.. I made sure in one of my texts that I included our address and told him our door is always open if he needs to get away somewhere... so hopefully he comes to us soon.
