DEATH

January 2019 - let's catch up.....

my son died..... 

I want to share my journey

as it may help others,

as their stories have helped me

and because 

but

 maybe this is what death looks like

light at the end...

this was one of Cam's photos

he loved graffiti

and abandoned buildings

he liked the old abandoned navy base

along the Industrial Canal and the Mississippi River

in New Orleans 

he said he and his friends would sit on the roof

for the sunrise 

  he took me to this place

me being an old teacher and all


and he loved New Orleans

last time I was there
his friends and I walked the levy along the canal 

and spread some of his ashes

 I left New Orleans the next morning 

it was a glorious sunrise

and I feel this is him now

off on a new adventure

and this is me.....
