Michael was my one & only child, he was a sweet & loving kid. His addiction started like most marijuana, then oxycotin then heroin. In the last 3 years he had gone to rehab 7 times his last time in rehab he met his soul mate & love of his life. he was doing great had been clean & sober for over 2 months the longest he had ever stayed sober. Then on June 2nd he woke up really sick, he went to the dr & had strep throat peg C by the 5th he was filling worse I took him to urgent care & they gave him more antibiotics. June 7th he felt so bad he could hardly swallow & was so sick. June 8th I was outside gardening a car came around the alley & Michael came out of the house around 3pm I asked him where he was going & he said away like he always did little did I know that was the last word I would ever here him say. He was in so much pain & he did what he knew would make the pain go away but not nearly what he used to do matter a fact not even half of what he used to do but it was enough for him to overdose. The person he was with took him to the hospital till I got there he was already on the ventilator we spent the next days hoping & praying but on June 11th we were told he was brain dead. We had to make the awful decision to let him go as I know he wouldn't have wanted to live like that he was so vibrant & full of life. That is & will be the hardest decision I will ever have to make. I didn't want to let him go but I couldn't do something I know he would never have wanted. i miss him so much & they are days I just don't think I can go on but then I look at his picture & I know he wouldn't want that. I try not to cry as I know how it upset him he would always say I'm sorry please don't cry or if I cried about something else he would say please don't cry. I tell him everyday I won't cry but everyday I do then I have to tell him I'm sorry I'm crying. ALL of our loved ones need to be remembered. Through the good & the bad I always loved him & always will till I see him again.
