A parent’s worst nightmare. My daughter was deeply depressed in high school. It was a time in my life when I felt totally helpless. Try to find some solace in your precious memories.

I’m sorry, Audrey. I will take some time later on to think about you and your son when I’m not staring at this screen. And, I will always remember what you wrote about him and this time we are living through. Take care.

Dear Ms Watters,
I am terribly sorry for your loss.
I lost my eldest ten yrs ago at the age of 23. The circumstances were different, yet the same. Ultimately he died from the drugs that were being used to treat his illnesses, & he was just as alone, slipping away in a hospital bed, even tho I’d just been there until 3 hrs prior. And there were years of his suffering and me feeling helpless. I am so glad you had that time with your son before his death, in person despite quarantine, & happy/ hopeful communications after that. I remember holding my son’s hand that day, and what we said, and sharing happy stuff a few days before. That’s what I hang onto. He knew you loved him. That’s all you can do, love them.

I am so sorry for Ms. Watter’s loss. I lost my brother to an overdose on January first this year. I believe her son’s name is Isaiah not Isaac.
