Re: Difficult Subject

Ian, Thank you for the link to the book. I just ordered it. Before that, I came in from a 5 mile walk. No Alps around here, I live in the suburbs of Detroit, MI. We do have some lovely areas with rivers and lakes though. When Andy was little, we rode our bikes constantly. It was then he asked his fi...

Re: Difficult Subject

Thanks for writing Ian, It has taken me so long to write as I wrote something right after you posted and then somehow deleted it. It took the wind out of my sails. The son I knew in day to day life was afraid of getting his blood drawn. He had Crohn's disease and had to get his blood drawn routinely...

Re: Difficult Subject

Michelle, Thank you for your kind words. He WAS very smart and always a good son. It is mind numbing to me that he couldn't reach out to us and allow us to save his life. We had no clue. He hid everything. To hear his voice on his computer talking about the signs God was sending him is absolutely be...

Difficult Subject

My son "Benzoic" was a member of The Family Bible Fellowship board in 2008. He completed suicide on April 1st, 2011. Since then I have been working backwards trying to figure out what went wrong in his brain. His real name was Andrew. He was quiet, very thoughtful and cautious. From a very young age...
