7-18-2026 I went to the drag club to unstress!

7-18-2026 would have been my son's 28th birthday, if n
ot for his suicide at age 21 on 10-21-2019 while in the Army.

It is always a very sad day that I still have cake and ice cream my son on, then I have to do something to lift my spirits, so I do not become furtherly depressed on his birthday. I called his sister and best friend and chatted with them and then went out that evening to the drag club.



My son Loved Trains as a child, so I hit the old depo in town for him.


Then On my way home I stopped for a break and @HumanEarth helped me on the rough gravel. It was nice of her. These pics are blurry because no one ever captures clear Big Foot pics, right!

You don't get over losing your child. We just learn to carry it a little lighter some days. And some days it's heavy again. That does not mean you're not healing. It just means we loved them.

This was something my grandma told me when we lost our daughter. Maybe its time to share them words to you. 🫂

@HumanEarth Thank you my friend and this post is how I have helped to heal myself.

I am sorry for the loss of your daughter, That is a pain a parent should never feel.

A birthday without a cake is not a birthday at all!
WillaKissing · 61-69, M
@1PrivateHannah I had the cake and the Ice cream, but my son who is in Heaven is what I was missing!

Thanks

It is so sorry your Son didnt survive his fight with depression... It is never easy for a parent to be predeceased by a child....

@WolfGirlwh0r3 Thank you for understanding.

@22Michelle Tremendously and why I do all I can to ward off the sarrows of it.

Thank you
