Sorry to hear about the premise behind your poem. That's a very difficult topic. You worked it into this poem well without being overt about it, leading a savvy reader to come to that realization but someone glossing over it may not. That's the hallmarks of a deep piece of writing. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Ricky,
This poem and author's notes are heartbreaking! I am so sorry for the senseless loss of your young son's life and his friend Brian Cole. To take oneself own life is drastic but to bring your friend along is diabolical!
Your poem is so full of anger still for Brian but peace comes through with your choice to end the coma and donate to other for Life. My hat's off to you and your family as it is the hardest thing to lose a child.
My prayer is for your continued peace and knowing your son rests in the arms of Jesus.
All the best,
Senyai

I thank you very much for your thoughts my dear.
My wife did commit suicide only Eight months later on November 23rd, 2003.
It would be another stumbling block followed by several more.
I had to learn that this was a testing. To make me stronger.
And why he decided to pick me?

Tough one! Also made harder by Jason's friend Brian taking Jason with him. Could have just killed himself. Having lost many, I think writing about that person is not only a kind of tribute, but eases the pain just a little.
The only respite is our Faith, and our belief in the afterlife, of which I am certain. No one knows exactly how it works, we will just have to wait until we get there, but you can rest assured, you and your son Jason will be reunited.
God Bless,
irish

Thanks for your review Irish.
Unfortunately 18 years ago that job was going around school.
And when people would ask him about the accident?
This is his reply.
'Shit Happens.'
Now of course I was happy two children didn't die.
At that child had been dead inside since second grade.

The only thing I can say I was tested beyond that many times and also tested and survived death 13 times myself.
My wife failed to test.
She was successful with her suicide.
True a parent's worst nightmare a child sudden loss.
But how about all those people who lost their child that was kidnapped and never ever found out what happened?
At least I have closure knowing that there's people out there because of my son.
Thanks Again Beejay.

Thank you, Dr. Ricky. Your son's memory is always alive on Fanstory because you shared and I'm sure you miss him everyday but his donated organs still support life.

Yes I can at least have closure knowing that three out of four people still walk still talk and still enjoy their very lives because of Jason.
Thanks for your time and thoughts.
