TOFU and NY and washington
it is with great sadness that I have to write you and say yet another victom of lyme disease has fallen
Adam Rowett 18 years old has dealt with lyme disease from 1997
along with myslf he was a brave little trooper who hardly ever complained even the weeks and months of anbxs that we had to mix into his frozen yougert
kept smileing but from that time untill now it kept comeing causeing severe mood swings
and as he became a young adult it became more then he could deal with takeing more and more medications untill it finaly won
I found him thismorning dead we have to wait for the official death report and as always they are going to blame the pills the person but not this dam disease
I cant saymore tonight through my tears and sadness I doent know how i,m going to go on myself

OH Aries! I'm SOOOO sorry to hear this! I can't begin to imagine what this must be like for you and your family.
Please come here for support when you are able. We DO care and will whatever we can for you.
I pray that you will find strength and comfort.

aries, i'm so sorry to read of your beloved son, adam's death today! 18; that is not right that one so young should have to go thru lyme disease, and that it take him before he's had a chance to LIVE LIFE!
my heart aches for you for all the pain and sorrow you feel, but so glad his suffering is over.
i'm including my link for my sympathy collection, and you'll find many in there to comfort you now and in the days, months, and years ahead.
2 of my very favorites are:
when tomorrow starts without me,
I'M FREE AT LAST ... for those who have been sick and no cure was to be found! We used for my Mom and sister.
when you are really missing Adam, put on a video tape of him; it helps hearing his voice and laughter, and then watching his gestures and mannerisms.
if you don't have a video, see if a family member of friend does, and have them make 2 copies. 1 for lock box; 1 for you to play often as it will get run out.
come back here as often as you need too; we'll help you thru this.
if you have a HOSPICE near you, they have berievement classes 6 months after a loved one's death; very helpful. i've been thru it 3 times during losss of 4 family members.
Posted by Robin123 (Member # 9197) on :
I'm so sorry to read this. This is wrong what he and any young person, and anyone of us, should have to go through. I know your grief is big now.
I think those of us who have gone through the Lyme/co experience have great value to others due to our ability to warn them so as to help them avoid this fate, if this can give you any meaning and consolation in time.

Oh sweetie, I lost my wonderful husband on December 21st at age 52...I can't say that I know your pain as a mother, but I do have the flavor of the deep loss that you are living right now...I cannot say enough that you are loved and that this is totally unfair and wrong...and that you are a marvelous, loving mother...He was blessed to have you...This is pain that I cannot measure...and something I cannot fix or plan for....I just try to stay in the raft through the rapids...they always end at some point, so my only effort has to be to stay in the raft...Stay in your raft you wonderful woman...You have a story to tell when you have rested and have your soul feeling strong enough...Until then, let others carry you...let others love you...ask for help and accept it without resistance...
I am and will be thinking of you daily....hourly if need be...This is as bad as it gets...no question...You go on one minute at a time....one hour at a time....rest when ever you can and your body asks you to...eat chocolate and keep posting here and letting us in to support you...I would be lost without the support of others and I am in no way accustomed to do this....
Much love and arms around you....

Except for the intervention of EMT's, ER docs and God answering prayers in time, we would have also traveled down this path. Our daughter has made 16 attempts.
Just remember that you did all that you could do. These diseases are horrible opponents and our kids just get so tired of the fight.

Dear one,
My heart is overflowing. I am very sorry to hear about Adam's passing. He must have brought you so much joy. He sounds like a remarkable and precious young man. How blessed that you were chosen for him and he for you.
I cannot imagine what these days are like for you right now, and can understand your wondering how you will go on. You have loved and cared for your child as no one else could have.
I pray that you are surrounded by loved ones who will help you carry this and I am hoping it will help you and your family to know that there are so many of us as parents who have feared and come close to facing the same, who care deeply.
And I pray for comfort and a faith that will hold you up while you grieve and find your way through to a place of peace. I know it will take time. I just hope for you that it comes quickly.
You do not ever have to forget how precious and valuable your Adam was in your life, nor how he added to the character of who you are as a man. His story is a golden nugget to be shared with others to help bring understanding to this horrific disease.
I am beyond words at the ongoing suffering that results from this disease and all that lies beneath it that places our children in such compromise. You will have a voice for others, in time, as you are ready to speak. For now, just as Elisabeth Elliott spoke during her radio program and in her writings.. "just do the next thing."
I will be praying for you and yours in the days and weeks ahead. Please let us know how you are doing.
God bless, Sojourner

I am in tears reading about your loss and I wish my tears could take away even a fraction of the pain you must be feeling, but I know that isn't possible.
Whoever said your son died a hero's death is so right. Having to muster up so much courage so young is heroic. He must have been an incredibly strong young man. I hope you can feel some of that strength as you deal with this pain.
Even if they do, as you wrote, "blame the pills the person but not this dam disease" we know the truth, and we are here to validate your truth, and to speak the truth for Adam.
Sending you much love and comfort.

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your SON. I lost my daughter, then my wife and then my father - first my daughter from Kidney Failure, then after a time my wife from MS and then right away, my father. My wife and my father died while I was in the middle of Lyme disease myself. So, I have some idea of your state of mind and heart now. I will tell you that my daughter became my HERO when I got very sick - and I held her in my heart and thought of her in each struggle I had. She inspirted me to continue to struggle and have courage. All of these who have left this physical world are still with me and are helping me. This is know and I want to encourage you to remember the struggle and courage of your son and let that inspire you to continue to live life and to offer hope to others, because you have overcome. This is part of my life now - to help encourage others, no matter now I personally may feel God and his Angels Bless you now and bring you through this with love in your heart for all who have this disease. We ALL needs each others love and encouragement and inspiration. Glen from High Bridge, NJ.

Tim-
i've been thinking and worrying about you since I first heard your terrible news.
I hope you are surrounded by loving friends and family right now and that you will be during the months ahead of fresh grief.
you're living the worst nightmare any parent can have, and one that is all real for those of us who have children with Lyme.
So many of us wish we could help ease your pain, even for a moment. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.
love, dilly Posted by Cobweb (Member # 10053) on :
I have found great support by attending The Compassionate Friends meetings. I am fortunate in that I have two groups that meet the first and third Wednesday of the month.
For me- talking with other parents who truly understand the depths of pain has allowed me to get my own situation in perspective.
Once we are forced to embark on the journey of grief, we find it is never over, we just learn to find our way-with each other.
At the last meeting I attended Jan. 16th I heard two things that made sense. 1. We do not "move on" after the death of a child, we "continue on". 2. God does not take. God receives.
Recently I attended a conference for Bereaved Parents outside of Philly. The first night at registration, I broke down and sobbed uncontrollably-but I was comforted by the realization that I was surrounded by people who understood. There was no need to apologize .
By Sunday morning I was feeling proud to be part of such a courageous group of people. Unafraid to meet their grief head on-and living their lives to the fullest-inspite of the emptiness.
My children, Barbie and Tommy, died of catastrophic medical complications in Spring 2004.
"We need not walk alone" YOU need not walk alone.

Your son's bravery touches us all, as does your loss.

I'm so sorry to hear about your son. I am a teen with lyme disease, and I know how difficult it is, although it sounds like I don't have it as badly as your son did.

Aries,
I am so sorry you lost your son, Adam.
He was too young to suffer and die.
I have a suggestion. Do you have a photo of him that you can put on Lymenet?
