Still a Mother, always a Mother. Please save a special thought for those of us who have lost a child. This

30. I have a friend whose son took his own life

several years ago, too. She is quite open about it, and doesn't hesitate to share memories of him on his birthday or the day he chose to end his life.
She and I also share having lost an infant: mine to premature stillbirth and hers just a few days after he was born. That is somewhat more tricky for me, as my daughter never drew breath. But she remembers her infant son, too. She says she had three children, but only her daughter is still living. I say I had three children, but only my two sons are alive.

I'm sorry for the loss of your son.
