    If she’s gonna drive all the way across town it better be for something more substantial than a handy.

    On a serious note, I’ll x15th who ever said love your people while you can. No way I’d survive the death of my son. No way. This whole lockdown has given us memories that will last the rest of our lives that I don’t think we would have had otherwise. Just solidified the fact that I could not live a day without him.
    I still call it The Jake.

    Too small overall, although I have joked to her about eating the angelfish, the biggest one.

    I may have posted this earlier, but it happens all the time.

    Me: I noticed the XYZ seems to be broken/ not adjusted right/ leaking/ wobbly/ etc/ etc.
    Mrs. C.: Oh yeah, I noticed that a couple days ago/ last week/ last month. I meant to tell you.
    Me: [beating head against wall]

    Eventually you reach a point where you can't physically cry anymore, so you stop. It feels weird not to be crying at first, but then you get hungry or feel like you need a shower, so for a little while you eat or do some other basic thing it takes to keep on living. Then the tears hit you like a freight train and you start all over. The periods between crying ever so slowly get longer. It's been almost eight years, I still miss my baby girl so much.

    And you very, very rarely hear of bereaved parent suicide.

    My wife makes killer banana bread.

    The price is that she waits on the older bananas until they have more … ahem... character than I want to manage as a day to day around the kitchen sort of a thing.

    Fuck dude. Hugs.

    And a virtual kick you in the nugs. Hoping the nut pain distracts you from your broken heart.
    Not likely.
    But hugs and love. Can’t imagine that pain.

    yeah thanx man -it was my ex wife's niece - it's hard to explain and in hind site everybody made mistakes

    she took over the counter sleeping pills in a florida parking lot because she felt she had no where to go and the heat and pills killed her

    she had so many opportunities that she didn't see. suicide a permanent solution to a temporary problem

    fuck it sucks

    Oh jeez... No words.

    And same for DBdude.

    I think many (most?) couples that lose a kid split up.

    I can't imagine dude.

    But I was always too scared to be a parent anyway.

    My wife's daughter killed herself at 15 years old.

    Edit: meh, I had a bunch of words, but there are no words. She's unimaginably strong and it's unimaginably heavy.

    Losing a child is brutal under any circumstances, but suicide would be especially hard. Wishing your family well.

    That's really sad. We were lucky, it made us stronger. It would have been so much harder if we had lost each other in the process.
