Please pray for me and my family. My Son 26 recently went home to be with his Savior. My Son suffered from schizzoaffective disorder that went undiagnosed for eight years. He suffered from severe depression as well as other symptoms. He decided to stop taking his medication and four months later ended his life. His decision may or may not have been influenced by the hearing of voices (hallucinations). My Son died at the hospital with his family at his side. Over the past 10 years, he was hospitalized once at 16 and three more times over the past two years, one being an attempted suicide in 2005 when he was finally diagnosed. As his mother I feel an enormous amount of guilt that I didn't see it coming and couldn't prevent what happened. I knew he needed his medication, but was hopeful that since he'd decided not to take it that he would do ok and I thought I would notice if he wasn't. My Son gave us so many wonderful memories, but he also suffered so much over the last 10 years. He loved the Lord and spent much of his time in the word or christian chat rooms. It's been six months since his passing and the pain and grief seems to grow. Please pray for us to find peace and comfort and renewed faith that currently is stretched and lacking. My faith is tested, and I feel like I'm failing. I can't understand why there is so much pain and sorrow that is impossible at times to endure. I can't understand why my Son suffered so, without healing, and robbed of a full and happy life.

I am feeling compassion for you. I too have alot of questions. Why God? I will pray for you for your stregnth to be Gods Strenght for your joy to return and for the plans the lord has for you to be revealed. I am so sorry for your lost. I lost someone very close to me last year, the 1st time I ever experienced this and I know it is not a nice place but the lord is good and in time you will be lifted of this grief. I know right now it's hard to believe but all we can do is go through the times of hardache to see gods glory. Jesus only gives us what we can bear. "Dear lord you know your daughters pain and I ask for your revelation of pain lifted from her , allow her to feel the security of your arms. In your precious name Jesus Christ Amen" have a blessed day luv Irene
