Posted on October 23, 2010 by Judy

When I got married, I certainly embraced the ”romantic love concept.” All of my songs and writing were so innocent. I was very immature. I have wondered for many months whether I would be able to share what I am about to. If I could share how I felt when I saw my dead son’s body, I decided I could share this.
