So Sad for Matthew and his Family / Donna Robert (visitor to site )
Accidents are a tragic for all of us. Weather we had something to do with it, or if we lose someone to death through an accident.
It is a shock that is very hard to absorb. Who wants to? Sometimes we have no choice in that decision.
It is so sad that Matthew died a tragic death, and at such a young age where he was defensive to help himself. Remember he was not totally alone, God is always with us, and I am sure he was holding Matthews hands and guiding him into his next journey of life.
I am sure the neighbours feel bad and your family is hurting beyond belief. "IF ONLY" must be going through everyones mind daily.
if only - there was a fence around the pool
if only - there wasn't any stairs around the pool
if only - there was a fence around his yard
if only - he wasn' t alone
if only - he didn't die
The "if's" are what we have to forget and remember the loving time we had with our children.I pray that Matthew is in the loving arms of Jesus Christ,as he has said "Let the child come on to me"
Life seems to be planned out for us. No matter how hard we all try to be perfect and be on top of everything, things happen and we can't explain them. I believe God has his reasons for taking our children and they will be unknown to us until we meet with our children again. God only seems to take the good guys. So feel blessed that God lent you his child and with the wonderful job you did with him, he needed him back now.
May God continue to give you the strength to continue with getting your laws and bylaws changed. May he help you with your anger, and may he see to it, that you can have joy everyday with your other son, who needs you both very much right now.
The death of a child, no matter which way, is hard for all parents, and it is so good that we can express our emotions to each other. This site is a wonderful place for us to do this.
Your son is a cutie, and his pictures are so nice. May God BLess you all.
