Mrs. Marilyn I just want to offer my condolences to u and your family. There is no greater pain then the pain of losing a child (I lost my son to cancer 2 yrs ago) and it still hasn't gotten any easier. I haven't known u for too long, but I can tell u are a good person and I am truly sorry for ur loss. When I heard about ur son my heart really ached for u as a mothers would. If u ever need someone to talk to who truly understands ur loss PLEASE feel free to come to me (if I'm still around). Only time and Prayer heals.
