Thank you, Jon, and yes he was much too young. I do sometimes wonder how his life could have been.

Thank you. This mirrors the experience with my own little brother (also born in 1980). He’s still alive but his mind is pretty much gone.

Tanja, what a tragedy, and what light Gogy had in his eyes as he held your daughter. Life has so many challenges that it is not surprising that many look for escape in things that ultimately are harmful, even if they provide respite for a moment. Thanks for sharing part of the story with us. Sending love from Australia
