    I'm so sorry for your loss. Children should never predecease their parents. My heart breaks for you.
    June 21 would have been my son's 21st birthday so I rode my bike 21 miles which took me 1 hr 50 minutes.

    I think this is such an awesome tribute. In so many ways.

    Good luck to you.

    Hope you will stay with it. I know it must be hard at times to get up and face the day but like others have said, your child would not want you to lose faith. I only have one child and I know I would think it was the end if I lost her but pray if that was something that happened, my faith and my friends and family would help me pull through it.

    Feel free to add me as I would like to continue to pray for you and encourage you in anyway possible. You made a great decision when you choose to get up out of that bed! Keep going! Hopefully somewhere down the road God will reveil His plan for your life. I don't believe God allows trails in our lives without a purpose behind them.

    You are an encouragement to all. So sorry for the loss of your son. I identify with the loss of a child & weight gain, although my daughter was only 16 mos & would now be 14 y/o. Still, at the time, I had gained 60 lbs. Keep up the great work & you have inspired me to do my Turbofire DVD now! Feel free to add me as a friend if you like, I am new to MFP.

    Good luck. I can't imagine what you've gone through. Keep putting one foot in front of the other.

    Sending love. I can't imagine it is ever something you get over, and my worst nightmare. xxx

    You are doing amazing. I'm so very sorry to hear about your son. Hang on to the memories as best you can. Take time to mourn and heal. I can't imagine the pain you must be feeling. Seems like getting out of bed is a better coping mechanism for you. I hope you find comfort in the coming days, months and years. Life is so unfair sometimes.

    receive a wedding invitation from one of my son's friends - I am happy for them but it is so hard to see them go on with their lives doing all the things he will never get to do

    I lost my baby boy and will use your story to inspire me to take care of myself. His birthday is coming up on October 12 and the anticipation is always hard. Thanks for sharing.
