Thanks for letting me root around in your neighborhood. "It hurt to read your posts; but then we both know we can rejoice that Adam is waiting at the gates of heaven for his parent's homecoming. Comfort when those unexpected moments pop up. I didn't remember you speaking of Adam before. " Yes, that is one of the reasons I don't often speak of Adam and Cameron, it is a lot of pain for whoever is hearing about it. We've been through it and have dealt with it and are comfortable with it. But it does have an impact on others. But I feel comfortable with our little family here and thought me relating could help put in perspective my thoughts on Cheryl/Haley. Through our experiences we have been able to minister to a number of people who have unexpectedly lost loved ones, including young children. It's not something you relish, but you are thankful to be able to comfort those who are going through the trials. We are looking forward to that family reunion in heaven more so than most. I can imagine Adam saying, "Dad, let me show you around". He's up there with other family members, grandparents, aunts and uncles that have been keeping an eye on him and Cameron for us. Anyway, thanks for letting me share. It is emotional, and that is good. Let's me know I still miss him and care about him. And through those emotions I can feel for Cheryl and understand the grieving process. And understand the absolute helplessness you feel when you lose a child. People say that don't think they could go through what we did, but I tell them you don't have a choice. You HAVE to go through it, there is no way around it. I know, I looked. Have a great 4th.
