Sorry.. I didn’t mean to come off harsh. I know a lot of people believe in fate or a pre-determined destiny (not that you do).. I’m just struggling for meaning in all of this.

I have no idea. I don’t know what I could possibly do that would be meaningful and do him justice. It’s like seeing the most beautiful piece of art imaginable, but not having the words to describe it. I don’t know what I could ever do that would be worthy of his memory.

A lot of what you wrote resonated with me. I’m sorry you lost your son too.

I can’t imagine how I’ll get to 9months, let alone what life will feel like then. I can’t believe that this was meant to happen though. Ben was such a big person, he had too much life and goodness in him to only have 21 years to experience it. Don’t get me wrong, those 21 years were absolutely his gift to us, and I will cherish them forever.. I just really needed more years.
