MY ONLY SON IS 22 years old now and his new girlfriend will NOT allow him to spend any time with me.  My heart is BROKEN. I feel alone and sad without my son. He is also my only child, I had serious medical issues so I thanked GOD every day for him.  So I miss terribly spending time with him, as I said his girlfriend will not let him be with me at all.

 

 

 

 

To my dear son Daniel: STOOD BY ME My little boy stood in front of me shouting, “You’ll have to go through me first when he saw I was in danger. My boy stood by me when the Law firm jobs crushed me into Debilitation. My boy stood by me when life took us in and out of places of extreme hardship. My boy stood by me many times in sickness and injury. My boy stood by me, always assuring: “Things will get better, Mom!” My boy stood strong by me when our beloved dogs, Rocky and Brownie went to the Rainbow Bridge. My boy stood by me when the deaths of my mother and brother shut me down to nothing. My boy big and small, always knew when I wanted to give up, letting me know he still needed me. My boy says, “Never give up, Mom, there is more for you to do in this life!” My boy is my hero, my savior, an inspiration that I cannot live without. My last wish is for my boy to stand by me a little longer, in case God calls me home while we still need each other. Love Mom
