Don't know if anyone noticed but i have been reading and posting some lately.
After losing my son, now 3 years ago, i , well don't know what really happened. I know i was not fishing or hunting like before. And i know i was drinking or under the influence of something it seems just about every day. It now seems clear everything is 'before' or 'after' and i still have hard moments/days. But as of today, i have not touched any alcohol or other in over 4 months. I been trying to keep busy and looking to get out and start doing the things that i love, outdoors. So, hope to see some the guys i used to yak fish with and meet some of you other 'new' kayak fishermen ... Don

Honor your son by living a life he would be proud of. His memories will always be present but you must carry them forward with you, not linger in their shadow.. When you feel weak seek power from the Divine, your friends, your moments of joy in days past, and push forward to make new joys and memories. Do not feel week if you think professional help might be needed, sometimes life gets away from us and we need a hand to bring it back under control.

I am sorry to hear of your loss, I can't imagine what that would be like. My prayers are with you and your family. It sounds like you are now on the right track. Trust in The Lord and he will take care of you.

Don, Good to hear you've had a sober 4 months. I know the loss of your son has been hard to bear. Maybe you can make it back up to the Dan if Gary has another get together.

Don't know you at all but thanks for posting. First off, my condolences, I can't imagine what you've gone through.

Second thanks for reminding me that there is always a way forward. I'm don't want to turn this thread into something about me, but your post has been a small reminder that there is hope on an otherwise pretty awful day.

I hope it helps you a bit to know that you've helped someone else.

I haven't experienced anything like you have and I can't imagine having to. Moving forward and being positive is the best thing you can do. Asking for help is always an option. Good luck, stay strong.
