Hi Friends (Second Family)...............................
Hi! God bless each one of you, I really do not know what I would have done without you guys! This forum keeps me going. I know, for a fact, that each and every time that I flip this computer on, my son is watching over my shoulder, reading right along with me. David, Al and Cindy, thank you so very much for offering us a shoulder to lean on, and that shoulder is ALSFORUMS.COM. Love you guys!
I really do not know where to begin, but I will give it my best shot! As many of you know that my son's first year anny is around the corner. I have oodles of things to do, in his memory, how I miss my baby. I wish there was a way where we all could get together for hugs, tears, and prayers. The 2 Als, Cindy, freddie'snetty, hoping, mya, cuykita, Jesus there are so many! I love you all! You guys are like family!
I will be posting a few things in my son's memory in the days to come. I have a very busy schedule, have so many things to do. On June 1st, we are having a special Mass given in my son's memory at 5:30 pm, please think of us then! This Friday I am delivering flowers to the church to repesent my baby. I am looking forward to that day. This past Sunday I took a drive to my son's grave, and had a beautiful visit with him. It was HOT! The heat ain't nothing, I do not mind that! I know my baby knows when I come and visit with him! I have been having some beautiful dreams about him.
There is something I would like to share with you guys! I would like to share the Eulogy that my son, and I had partially put together. This eulogy was about halfways done when he came to the end. I had to finish it with a broken heart. So let's share it..............
A Eulogy To Our Beloved Son Rudy
Who would have thought, sweetheart! Years ago when you were so full of life, such a strong person, always cutting up, and yet you always had respect for your elders. Who would have thought that I was going to see you lying in a casket. To me it is still like a dream. Your Dad is having a hard time dealing with your departure.
The day that you were diagnosed with this terrible disease my world came to an abrupt end! It hit me like a train! For a very long time I was in denial. Denial and depression played tug of war with me for a long period. I remember when I used to wake up in the middle of the night and cried myself back to sleep in silence. The next day I did not feel like getting up. I forced myself to do a lot of things. I remember when you told me not to worry, and that everything was going to be alright, even though you knew this dreadful disease had no cure. You assured me that deep down you knew that it was God's plan. Yes baby that's what you told me, "Mom, it's all God's plan, so please do not cry. I am not afraid." What a courageous young man! I respect you so much for your bravery. You never complained, not once. You never showed any fear at all. I felt so bad foryou, baby. My life has changed so.
I remember you as a baby. So cute! Your Grandpa used to call you "Fito." I remember when you were a toddler, you grabbed your Grandma's cat, and put it in your Grandpa's Mynah Bird's steel cage. The cat and the bird were going round and round! After you'd seen what was taking place, you ran and hid! That's like little "Fito" huh? You were always getting into something, such a rascal!
Oh, before I forget honey, your kind of music will always ring in my ears. You left sooo many CD's behind, and I will always be listening to your music!
I loved and enjoyed taking care of you. Taking care of you was never a burden.
Baby, I am about to wrap up this eulogy. I just want for you to know that we will never forget you. You will be missed so. You are now resting in peace, my angel, no more pain, and no more Als my love. I bet it is beautiful where you are at right now. I see you as my angel watching over us. You have made such a brave person out of me! I learned a lot from you. We love you, Rudy! You are so special!
My son, God God gives us chances in life, but only two times, a time to be born, and a time to die, to enter into eternal life. He helps us all through our lives until the end, and when it's time to go, he takes us Home to Heaven. May you have a safe journey, dear son, and God keep you under His wings for Eternity!
Son, it is time for me to bring this to a close. There will be no "Good byes", because I know we will meet again on the other side. I will forever feel your presence. You are now my Guardian Angel, son. We love you. Enjoy your new life with Our Father.
Lots of Love,
Mom, Dad and Shannon
