My son Daniel died in a car accident Thanksgiving Nov. 27, 1997. He was 16yrs old. My heart still aches for my son. I still keep hoping he will walk through the door even after all this time! I miss & love my son so very much,each & every day.

My baby would have been 21 years old today. He was 4 weeks when I lost him from SIDS. The pain is still as fresh today as it was then. Most times it is bearable but not on his birthday - then it is like a raw wound. I miss him.

My son Adam died. on Easter Sunday 2007. He was 25. I miss him so much. He has just become an uncle. I would just love him to know.

I also keep thinking my son will walk through the door, and this is all a big mistake. It has been 4 years since my 21 year old son died in a car accident. Each year I seem to get more in to the reality of it, but we seem to always hold on to a bit on faith. Bless you.

I lost my son 23 years ago. He was only with us for 2 1/2 days. No, it doesn't go away (I'm crying now), but you wouldn't want it to go away. I think we grieve as much for what might have been as for what was.

Hi Renae... I am sorry to hear about your son. My daughter was 16 when she passed away of an asthma attack. I know exactly what you mean. The pain never goes away... I do think our coping skills get better... but nothing will ever take away the ache of not hearing her laugh. My heart and prayers go out to you and your family. ~hugs~

I am sorry about your loss especially it is hard around the holidays. I bet he is looking down upon you this thanksgiving and saying he misses you mom and to remember the good times and keep the memories alive.
