Jim McGaw - 09/21/00 21:29:51 My Email:jmcgaw@ids.net How did you find me?: article in RI Parents' Paper

Comments: Dear Patricia, My name is Jim McGaw and I edit the Rhode Island Parents' Paper. You may remember that we ran a brief story about your Web site dedicated to Justin in our September 1999 issue. I just finished a second look at the site -- what a wonderful tribute. I'm hoping you can help me. I'm working on my "editor's note" for an upcoming issue, which will focus on how much time parents spend worrying about their children. Naturally, I'm going to touch upon our very worst fear ? the death of a son or daughter ? and how it seems to be a taboo subject for most parents. Whenever the subject comes up -- whether a friend mentions it, it's on the news or in a movie -- many parents seem to "tune out" or flatly refuse to acknowledge the possibility that such a tragedy could occur to themselves, a relative or a friend. Although it's certainly not a subject I like to talk about myself, I wonder how healthy it is to ignore it altogether. How can we possibly deal with such a tragedy -- whether it happens to us or someone else -- if we can't talk about it? As someone who has experienced the tragic loss of a son, I would be curious to hear your thoughts. Do you think parents would be able to better deal with such a tragedy if death wasn't such a taboo subject (or is there no way to "deal" with a child's death)? You told us last year that although you received plenty of support from friends immediately after Justin's death, that support slowly dropped off. Do your friends still change the subject when Justin's name comes up? I would certainly be grateful for any assistance you could give me. I would like to use your name in my editor's note, and I would certainly mention the Web site as well. Thank you in advance and again, I think it's wonderful how you are keeping the memory of Justin alive. Take care, Jim

Comments: I am so sorry for your loss. Your story is so sad. I lost my 17 yr. old daughter this year. It is so hard to to understand why a parent has to endure such pain. Please visit her memorial and a website I built for bereavbed families. I would really like to place your sons picture on our "light a candle" page. God Bless.

Comments: We think Don wanted us to see his poem to you, too!!! Actually, we both were very moved by your tribute to Justin. You had a very special relationship and it showed through in the words you wrote and the features you had on the site. After seeing the p ctures, and hearing Don's comments, we feel like we already know you. You have had the courage to turn a profound tragedy into a very positive expression of your love for Justin. Thank you for sharing Justin's life with us. Ken & Linda Lauren
