It's been 28 years since you've been gone

I try to think positive every day that your passing was for the best and you don't have to suffer any longer. Yet 28 years later I still feel your pain, I hear you cry and wonder why God took you from me!

You were my first born, the little man that showed me more about life in 5 months than anyone could have in a lifetime. I treasure every moment that I was able to have with you, even when most of them were sitting in a hospital. You took on 4 operations in 5 months of your short life, yet you still were able to put on a smile and grasp my finger not long before you died. You were more of a man than I will ever be.

So one more year has passed as I think about you every day, wondering who would you be today if you were still alive. But there is one thing that I know for sure... I love you more today than yesterday, even when yesterday seems like forever.


Rest in Peace, Jeffrey!

Love Always,
Dad
