Two months after Daniel had died I was lost in a strange city, without a home, too broken to find my way, too sad to care about life and that is how my wonderful foster family found me. We had lost contact 16 years before but when I contacted the youngest of the 3 sisters Helé through Facebook they opened their house and their hearts to me, without doubt or hesitation.
I was welcomed into their world as part of the family and they cried with me holding my hand through the darkest of times. I am still living with them and think that they are a family of angels, beyond special. They never had a chance to meet Daniel in person and this poem was written for him by Helé...my beautiful youngest sister.
For the one I never got to meet :
When you left me – my heart lay awaken by unsaid thingsI want to tell you that I’ll miss youI want to tell you how much I careI want to hold you in my armsFeel you nearI want to tell you how much I’ll miss your smileThe way you make me feelThey way you lifted up a roomBy just being youI want to show the world just how much I careI want you to know I’ll always be thereEven if you are not here any moreI will always love you even more

I read about Daniel on LIGnet.
I am touched by your pain. You had a beautiful son! May God guide you on the road of recovery.
I dont really know what to say after reading your story except my heart breaks for you. I have a little girl who is 8 and my life would crumble if something has to happen to her. I hope the pain becomes less. Cheryl
