Angel families My son was taken tragically by another, The heartache will never be gone. It is so difficult to bury a child, your children are supposed to bury you, not the other way around. What helped me the most was my great neice. She told me that my son was gone before I could tell her. She was only 6 at the time. My son, Matthew, was her dream. She loved him so much. He was 17. She said she was going to marry him when she got older. 
When we went to the school to tell her, she came out of the room and saw us crying. She looked at me and said, "My Matthew is fine, God told me he sent and angel to do a job, and that angel got hurt. So He had to find the strongest angel He could, and that was My Matthew. So he is in heaven helping God and watching over us until we meet again." Now this little girl didn't go to church, and no one had told her that Matt had died. The only explanation is that God told her. I cannot argue with that kind of true belief. It is still very hard, even 5 years later. But I know he is safe. The pain and heartache will never leave, but I have the comfort given to me by the mouth of a babe. Loss is hard, no matter what kind you suffer. My grandfather passed in '79, then my dad at the age of 48, 3 years after that, then my sister was murdered 3 years later at the age of 15, my brothers baby died shortly there after at 7 days old. Then in 2003 My son was shot by his "best friend" while playing with a gun and drinking at the age of 15, and his mother let him. Because of that I no longer have a son. God knows what he is doing. That is my only comfort. I HOPE ONE DAY WE WILL ALL BE UNITED AGAIN. Matthew Hagan's mom. Dottie
