[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 763762, member: 3305"] Hi JMOM, Thanks for reaching out to me and caring. I am doing much better than last year…the first year. I am not nearly as sad and have accepted that Jarod is at peace now in heaven. Of course a big part of his heart will always be with me. He was my special child. I have applied for a job working from home. The training starts May 8th and lasts for 2 weeks. It won’t bring in much money but that really isn’t the point. I just need to do something besides clean the house and go to the casino. The office I have set up is in what used to be Jarod’s room when he would live with us at different times. I have a picture of him in there in his Army uniform. He was so handsome. I feel like this job is for both of us…for the opportunities Jarod never had. I wish my son was never a drug addict. I know he still had Bipolar Disorder like me and life still would have been challenging. But with addiction he didn’t stand a chance. In particular addiction to Meth. Which is what he had in his system when he was hit and killed on the highway. Can’t go back and change anything now. The only place is forward. I will be okay. One day at a time. [/QUOTE]
