I've read your journals and just want to extend my condolences on the death of your son. I, to had a son lived with the same struggles your boy did and finally died of an overdose at the age of 22. It's been over 2 years now for me and I still miss him every moment of every day. Still ask all the "what if's" and "whys". This is such a difficult journey and I would like you to know I'm here for you. *Hug* Adrianne

Hi,
Welcome to our wonderful group of caring moms, but I am so very sorry for the reason you are now counted among us. I am the unofficial keeper of the official list. The list as you may have seen is on the FMO page and is posted once a month. It lists all the children who have have a birthday or angel day(the day they became an angel) that month. If you would like your child included on the list please send me their name, birth, & angel day. You may also include your name if you would like - that is entirely up to you - a few of the mom's have requested that the mom's name be included. If you would like a copy of the entire list I can send that to you but I will need your e-mail address.
If there is ANYTHING I can do for you please let me know - I am here to help you.
I hope to hear from you soon...
Hugs, Ann

It's an awful thing to have to go through, but if it's any comfort we've all been there and know how you're feeling. I know this site has been a great help for me, I lost my 33 yr. old son to suicide in may, and don't know what I would've done without all the great people here at DS. Hang in there, we're always here for you when you need us. Love and hugs, Bev
