So sorry Mr. Fishfighter. Prayers for your son and his grieving family. Attempting to understand his decision to do this will not help your healing process. Think of the good times and thank the lord for your times together.

My son has been in ICU for 47 days now in CA battling septic shock that seems to go up and down, but currently grave condition. He is alive, but can't go to him. I feel your pain in my soul.

Horrible deal Fish. I lost a best friend the same way. I couldn't imagine if it was one of my kids. Prayers for you and your family.

I can imagine what you are going through with the circumstances of your sons death but I can relate to you as a father.

Last December, my 31 year old daughter died from a surprise heart attack. Its has been almost 9 months since she passed and I would love to tell you that it gets easier. It really doesn't. I think about her everyday and that does not stop

I am sorry to hear about your son and hope that you find some relief from the pain soon

Oh my.

So damned sorry. Wrap yourself in friends and family. It's all you can do.

When ready, do your best to find joy again. This tragedy has forever marred your life. Don't let it define your life.

Damn man.

Thank all of y'all again for the prays. Prays to those that are in need with love ones.

I'm still at a lost, but I trying to leave things to my faith in God. For once in my life, this is something I just don't know how to fix.

I don't think that it's something that's meant to be fixed. It's only meant to be a great opportunity for your family to grow closer and closer to each other.

This will make your family even more stronger than ever before and will make all you take stock of your lives and examine it, see what has true meaning and what does not and and make improvements where you can and build it up even more.

Good luck and my condolences to you and your family. Everybody here at TigerDroppings.com wishes all of you well fishfighter.

Sir, I truly don't know what to tell you, save for offering my condolences and prayers. I've never had kids, so I can't possibly begin to imagine what you're experiencing.

All that I can try to say is PLEASE don't feel like you failed your son or anyone else. Your son made it to 37. I think that alone is a testament to how much you and your family did for him.

I'm not a deeply religious person but I've always believed in God...as a loving, compassionate, understanding God. If your son was the type of person that you've stated, I'm convinced that he will be with the Lord in paradise...and that when it's your time to go there, he'll be waiting to greet you.

May you and your family find the strength and courage to sustain yourselves through these times.

I lost an adult sibling to suicide. I don't pretend that my loss was like that for you as a parent but I know how powerless & the feeling of desperation that accompanies it.

For the rest of your life please don't let it define you. You have folks who need you and love you. Find solace in your interactions with them and the good memories of your son.

Again, I am so sorry for your (and your family's) loss.

Sometimes things aren't meant to be fixed. I have had you on my mind a lot past few days. Whatever that is worth, hope you find your way through this.

Prayers man. I could not imagine losing a child like that.

My parents lost a child and my father claims he doesn't recall anything from the following year. I hope you keep your faith and don't blame it on yourself.

I'm sitting here at work in tears. My condolences to you and your family. I have an 18 year old son at home with some issues and this is one of my biggest fears.
