Today, 2 years ago, I was sitting next to my son, Max, while he was in a coma. He was lying in the hospital, and I was in shock. I couldn't believe what had happened, that he had fallen into the pool and that he didn't wake up. I was wondering if my son would wake up and what he would be like if he did. The doctors told us that he would definitely have brain damage for being without Oxygen for so long. I couldn't imagine that. I couldn't imagine saying goodbye either. I wish so many times I could see him, touch him, squeeze him. I even wish he was still lying in that bed, unable to move, just to have him back. I miss my angel so very much and when I think of him I just pick up my new little boy and my daughter and squeeze them like there is no tomorrow. I am so thankful for having them in my life and so gratefull that my Max was with me for as long as he was. I have been through some terrible times since he died, but nothing that I wouldn't go through again to have him back. I am so thankful that the world today allows for donating our precious organs to save others lives and that is amazing in itself. I am so thankful that my baby boy was healthy and was able to help so many. I did a good job taking care of him and I know that. I did my job as his mom for the time he needed me. I love my children. All we can do as parents is love our children, take care of them and keep them healthy and happy. We can also donate if that time comes. I never thought about it before my horrible day came but we don't control the entire world, we do control our impact upon it though, and we should make a huge impact, everyone should donate!!!! Take care of yourselves,
Carolyn- mom to my angel who's terrible accident 2 years changed my life!!!!!
