...it was the mailman, I opened it up... It's Chris' ashes...I wasn't expecting this. I couldn't even bring myself to tell Troy what it was. I've never seen ashes before, this all still feels like a dream...
(Hugs) I don't know the story, so I'm sorry if I missed this. I feel for you, though, and non-creepy Internet hugs to you.

My Older sons father was killed in a motorcycle accident last month. He was riding at night (sober) (helmet) with a friend. Unfortunately they were going too fast, he tried to maneuver a turn too fast and possibly also hit a patch of gravel. He took out a length of fence. Despite efforts to save him, he flat lined twice and for too long in the helicopter. This has been really hard for my son as they were close and very hard on me as we were still very good friends. I've been trying to cope with everything and try to keep my chin up for Troy, as it happened less than two weeks after Jax was born.
Thank you, all for your kind thoughts... I've been away from TB because I've made it an obsession of mine to find any of his friends (via FB)that may have a demo CD from the local band he was a frontman in. This will be very important to my son as he gets older as he will be able to listen to his dad's voice whenever he wants.
Oh I remember that. You are in my thoughts and prayers. There's really nothing I can say to even try and make you and your family hurt less. We are here for you.

This just melted me. I lost my dad at 10yo and would give anything to be able to hear his voice. That will be an amazing thing for your son. I hope you are able to find it.

Thank you! It would be the most important thing to find! I'm still holding out hope. I have 3 promising leads but still no definates. The only other place it would be is in his storage unit which his cousins ( coming out of the woodwork) are currently fighting me for. I know if anyone else gets in the unit they will just throw away all the CDs and sell his stuff. It's made me sick to my stomach just thinking about that happening. I could care less if any of his family gets his other stuff it's just stuff. But I'm petrified at the loss of that one item a CD, meaningless to anyone else that would mean THE WORLD to my Son. I'm so disgusted at how certain people act at the loss of a family member...
Im so sorry! Thoughts and prayers for both you and your son. Also i hope you get that cd. I think its beautiful you want to be able to give your son the gift of hearing his dads voice.
I'm so sorry for you and your family. I know it must be hard on you emotionally with a happy event like the birth of your son following such a sad time. Lots of mixed emotions I'm sure. My thoughts and prayers are with you!
