Reading your thoughts - your poem, it made me so sad for you. For the pain you are feeling. WHY WHY WHY! I call out with you. I do not understand, there is no sense at all. But God does understand and when there is nothing left inside of you, and the pain is too much to bear and the grief wrenching at your soul, then fall - fall into the safe arms of the Lord. He does heal, He does comfort. He is real and He loves you. He is hurting with you for you.

I just visited your memorial to James. What a tragedy that we loose our children so young. A whole lifetime ahead of them, but living was more than they could handle. My son Stephen died by suicide Jan. 22, 1998. It has left a big emptiness in my life, so I share your grief and your pain.

Andy- Thanks for your comments in our guestbook. To acknowledge the day, I bought an Angelfood cake, decorated with rainbows and clouds, I bought a bouquet of blue flowers and burned a tall white candle on my alter of angels for my son. I bought myself a gift, a tiny ceramic angel frame and put in a sweet picture of James, and brought it to work to keep in my office. My sister sent cards to each, my parents, me, and my daughter to express her love and sorrow on this bittersweet day. My sister was 14 wh en James was born, and was so close to us that it must have felt to her like he was 'our' first born child. Many days I get by OK, but sometimes I follow the pull on my heart and it takes me to that deep pit of emptiness inside where my loss resides. It is such a hopeless, helpless, sick feeling, but I have to go there, I have no choice. If I don't go there, I am afraid it will swell and consume me. Please feel free to write me, my email address is above. Terry

just want to say that this website is exremely well done. It is obvious that you have put all of you heart in this project. I know that today will be a hard day for you. In my family two people took their lives as well. Even though they died before I was orn I understand what the survivors go through. Please write back to me so I can read your response. I enjoyed looking at the photo album of all of your family members. It was also sad for me to see all of the happy memories that you had with james. I'm s rry that there's nothing I can say that will make you feel better, especially on this day. My thoughts are with your whole family.

Happy Birthday James!

You would be 23 today, but now you're not.

Maybe by now the pain and darkness would have lifted and you could have found some joy in life, but we'll never know.

Instead, you are gone, and we are here, to feel this empty pit, this neverending pain, to feel deep inside, the gut-wrenching sobs that we can't get out.

We'll never know how it could have turned out, and we'll never forget how it did.

I miss you so much, and I miss all the things that will never be, but I am still so angry and hurt.

There is no place to express the love, no place to put the pain, no place to direct the anger. No answers to the eternal questions.

I hope you have found peace. I still wish I knew where you are.

Love,
Mom

I just finished reading the poem that you wrote. It was sad for me to read it because of the genuine feelings you had and still have for your son. It is evident to me that you put your heartfelt feelings in this poem. It is a truly unique poem. I am very sorry about your son. I am glad that I had the chance to share my comments with you.

What a beautiful son. I am so very sorry for his suicide, for I know the pain of it all too well also. My fiance and best friend Michael completed suicide on August 31, 1997. He too was only in his early 20's with so much compassion and love yet to live. James's pictures clue in on how gentle and kind, creative and sensitive that he probably was. And such a handsome man too. My heart goes out to you and your family as you approach the year-anniversary mark. I do not know how I made it through, but I am still here even though life doesn't seem worth it anymore. The loss of those we love more than life itself to suicide breaks souls, shatters hearts, tears beyond places that we knew could ever writhe in pain. I had seen James's picture at 1000deaths but didn't know you had this website until I looked at the Links section of that site. Thank you for sharing James with me. I know that once we too pass over to the other side we will see them all again and that day will be joyous. My heart goes out to y u, Molly. P.S. If you'd like to visit Michael and I, the link is my URL.

I only knew James a short time, but he was the type of person that you loved right from the start. James' Dad is my best friend and his Mom was a very good friend (I haven't seen her in a long time). I do wish that things were different and that he were still here.

I just wanted to say how sorry I am about your son james. In my family, two people committed suicide.however, I did not know them because they died before I was born in 1975. The first was my grandfather's uncle who took his own life in about 1920. My grandfather who is now 84 years was only 5 years old when he saw his uncle shoot himself in the head. It happened in the corridor of the house. He still remembers it very clearly.I asked him why he thought his uncle commited suicide. He speculated that maybe it was because of his wife's death. The second person to commit suicide was the wife of mky father's brother. My father told me that she suffered from intense migraine headaches.He also told me that when he would go visit his brother, she would be in a rocking chair, because of her pain She ended up killing herself in september of 1974. she was 28 when she died.My uncle was left to take care of their 4 children. He never remarried. And he still misses her every day. As he would tell me about her, he would remember her with fondness. I really apreciate having the chance to share this with you. My thoughts are with your family.

I feel very connected to you after reading your page. I understand so many of those feelings. Yes, you ARE normal after the experiences you've had. Trust me on that. I thought life would never improve. After all, nothing would bring my son back. But ife WILL get better. It's a slow process and it's had to believe it when the depression is at its worse, but stick with it. There IS light at the end of the tunnel. If your medication doesn't seem to be helping enough, ask your doctor to try another ki d. That helped me more than anything else. Would love to talk to you more, Terry. Susan

I can't say that I know the pain from losing a child,because I don't. And I just hate it when someone says I know exactly how you feel, when really they have no idea how we feel. Unless 1 has walked in our shoes.Even though I don't know the pain of losing a child, I know the deep and heartwrenching pain of losing a loved one. My loss accured over a year ago & I thought I had come so far,until I seen the pictures of your son & then it hit hard again. Your son reminded me so much of our Jeremy all the way down to the Megadeath shirt oh how he loved them. Jeremy too was so young had his whole life ahead of him. Have you ever met someone that just totally amazes you, takes your breath away, makes you smile without even trying? Well that was Jay, he committed suicide Aug.11th 1997 he was only 20 & I was five months pregnant with our daughter, he made me watch. So every single day that pain is with me, and the pain of knowing that our daughter will NEVER know her dad. You know some people only dream of angels, I held one in my arms & now we hold them forever in our hearts.I am deeply sorry about the loss of your son, but I want you to know that your page is just absolutely beautiful & you've really helped alot of people. It helped to let me know that I'm not alone,your not alone. We're never alone. I send you all of my best. Thank you for sharing & allowing others to do the same..

Dear James, It is the 4th of July. One of your favorite holidays. I have a bunch of your fireworks you saved from last year, I thought maybe you saved them to fire for New Years, I guess it didn't work out, that way. I hoped your sister would take them last night ith her friends and fire them off, in your memory. She forgot them. Tonight she has to work, so I guess she won't be able to. I never know what I should do anymore. I miss you, and love you, Mom.

I'm another sister in this dreadful sorority. My boy, Bill, was 25 when he took his life 2 years ago. His picture is on 1000 Deaths, too. It is the worst thing I could imagine, the worst thing I have ever had to deal with, and my heart is with you. Anyway, I loved the pictures of James. You could tell that he was a fun-loving, sensitive, creative boy. Why do we lose the very best ones this way?

I think that this page is a wonderful tribute to James. I think that this is something that his friends and family have to remember him by and helps show others that suicide is very painful and that loved ones should not be forgotten.
