DIANE PHILLIPS: One death too many, please let this not be real
Diane Phillips WHATEVER the cause of death, there can be no greater heartbreak than that of burying a child. Children are supposed to bury their parents. It’s not supposed to be the other way around. For the grieving parent, the pain is intolerable, unbearable, inescapable. In your heart, much as you try to deny it, you crumble and ache, knowing you will never be able to try to kiss your young son good night again and tell him you love him as he half-heartedly pushes you away, saying “Dad, I’m too old for that stuff,” but deep down inside still craves the love.
