Son, I wish I could wake up and see you standing there.
Then I would know that it was just a nightmare.
Son, I remember when you were small and how you would hold my hand,
and as you grew older you became my best friend.
Son, I have 29 years of memories that I will treasure and keep safe in my heart.
We share a bond that time and distance can never break apart.
Son, oh how my heart aches so.
I would love to have you back and never let you go.
Son, where there was happiness,
now there is sadness.
Son, how I long to hear your voice and see your beautiful smile
and have you back for just a little while.
Son, until that day I see you again,
I will look to the sky and search among the stars for my son and best friend.
Love,
Mom

My Son Todd, was crushed to death while driving a forklift at work, September 15, 2009 at 5:11 pm. Today marks the 15th anniversary of his leaving this world. Time heals all wounds, NOT THESE WOUNDS. It gets easier, NO, IT DOES NOT. People tell you that you need to move on, How am I suppose to do that when I too died that day. I exist, not live since Todd was taken from me. I hear so many say, " I LOST MY CHILD". MY SON , TODD ISN'T LOST, I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE HE IS. I don't mean to offend anyone, I'm only sharing my thoughts
