A fellow glass beadmaker sent me an email the other day telling me about her sister, as her sister's situation is very similar to mine. Her son, like Jonathan was a wonderful smart, intellegent young adult who succumed to this sickness we call addition.
His short life ended at the age of 23 from Alchol poisoning.
I am grateful she emailed me, I was hesitant to call at first, but anyone really knows who I am I am not a shy woman. I am really not afraid to talk to a stranger, nor to tell it like it is.
I have spoken to other women on the phone who have lost children. I have found that with each and every conversation both parties came out winners. Although, I cannot feel the same feelings as the other women, nor can they feel the same feelings I feel about my child.
What we do have is a common bond, we have each lost a part of our soul. That feeling will never change, that feeling will never go away for any mother.
I did call her, we connected, we both cried, we both laughed & we were able to help each other.
I was going to post today all about what happened to me yesterday. I will share my feelings later. I find this more important right now.
