I really really miss my son.
I recently lost my 20 year old son Chris to pneumonia. Chris was a bright, very loving son who graduated high school with honors two years early at the age of 16. Chris had duchenne muscular dystrophy but never let it slow him down. When he developed the pneumonia he was too weak too fight it and he was gone. I was holding him in my arms at the hospital when he passed away and when he died part of me died. It felt like my world ended and I didnt want to go on. The pain I feel is just indescribable and nothing can ease it. I am trying to learn to cope with the fact he is gone but it is so hard. I am lucky to have 2 other children but that still doesnt ease the pain any more. Some days I just want to lay down and die but I cannot. He wanted me to go on and be ok and I have a promise to keep to him. I really really miss my son.
