Pat and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Unfortunately, I know how it feels to lose a child. There is no greater loss. I know there are no magic words that can be said to ease your pain right now or ever. Just know that whenever you are ready to talk, I am a good listener and can recommend some support groups that may help when the time is right. My heart and soul are with you and your family now and forever.
Sincerely,
Ginny (Laytonsville, MD)
