Many are committed to doing what we can to right all the insane wrongs that surround Lyme disease. It makes me so so so angry. We are with you, for ourselves, our family members and friends, suffering people across the country, loved ones and strangers, and you and your son and your family.
Peace to you

I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your son. I cannot imagine the pain in losing someone so young,or the pain and heartache of watching him go through the struggles of this disease.
My heart goes out to you and your family and we will keep you in our prayers.

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.

Words never do justice to convey emotions at such a time...
Prayers, thoughts, sympathy, and warmth to you and your family.
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.
