The Battle is Over
Oh Washbe, I share your tears and am so very sorry for the loss of your son.
You and I have walked together for many years now, more than 11 years, and we both have faced this possible outcome for our sons for a long time. It doesn't make it any easier when it happens, my heart just breaks for you.
I believe that God loves all his children, including his addicted ones. Your son was not bad, he was sick and now he suffers no more, but rests in the loving arms of God. I have no doubt that your son loved you to the very end, and even more, he knew he was loved no matter what.
Please know you are in my prayers, dear friend, and I am always here anytime you want to talk.
Love you, Washbe, and I walk with you in grief today.

Washbe, my heart aches for you and your family.
May you find rest knowing that your son is in God's loving arms. May you find peace knowing that you and your family are in His loving arms too, right now. May you feel the love that surrounds you at all times.

Dear Washbe
My heart goes out to you and your son and your family. God speed to your son - he is safe now. No judgement. Just surrounded by love. And one day you will meet again - you will see your son again - healthy and full of life. You are in my prayers.

Washbe. My heart is broken for you and with you.
I will never forget how hard you worked to help your son
and how much you loved him. He was a part of our extended family here.
Don't think about those who didn't understand. Think about us and how much we cared.
God loves your son and always will. No worries there.
I know there must be no greater sadness than how your son died, but that was just a moment and he is resting now. You will be together again.
I love you a lot! Always know that we are right here if you need us and always with you.

I had to return when I heard the news of your sons passing. He is at peace now even as the ones that remain grieve. We have had many conversations about our son's choices and the bottom line is they were their choices to make. Grown men. We did all we could do and then we have to send them on their way. Your heart will always hold him near. Hugs to you during this difficult time.

I woke up today thinking of you, Washbe, and I hope the love and support here will in some small way comfort you through these sad days.
You are forever in my prayers and in my heart.

Washbe, I am broken-hearted to read your post. I am so very sorry for your loss.
As MG said, don't think about those who didn't care, think about and remember us because we do understand.

Thank you all, dear understanding friends. Few understand, but I know you all do. I'm so sorry that I haven't been more comfort to all of you, especially recently. My son consumed so much of my time with doctors, errands, courts.
No, I really don't regret much that I did for him - some things, of course.
His little dog is snoring peacefully on my sofa and slept on the bed with us curled up at my feet. He is such a good little dog. Though I hadn't planned on another dog anytime soon, Gizmo is such a comfort. My son would have given his life for that little shihtzu.
I suppose if there is any comfort in the loss of my son, it's that he did pass while on the lake and with his boat. Thankful he wasn't one of the homicide victims in the news. The story did make the news, but as an accidental drowning.
Love and comfort to all of you. I pray that your loved one seeks the light and you have many years of joy in your near future.
