and he doesn't need any help from us either, by the way, random.

all we can do for him is to be here with him.

I have a strong desire to help people. Life is shit and it can be vastly improved. For now, all I can really do is donate what little income I have and offer advice and support to my friends. So I do. A lot. I hate that I'm not more helpful...

@OP: Damn, should have checked this thread earlier. If you're reading, Tendo...my condolences. All I got I'm afraid.

If I were to write some of the strange things that come under my eyes they would not be believed. ~Cora M. Strayer~

Well I was just offering support. I know that when horrible events were going on in my life, I wished that someone had offered me support. Anyway, deciding what posts should or should't have isn't the point of this thread.

[up][up] Don't hope. Know...Know and pray.

You have my deepest condolences Mr. Nick. I'll say a prayer for him and for you.

Looking at these responses, I see you're able to stand up on your two feet and not break in two. It hurts... badly, but we do not break.

You haven't, you won't. Stay strong Nick. Stay strong.

Thank you all so much. I just wish...he really loved Poison...he wanted us to meet and he would always tell me he was such a brave kid. And I know Poison loved him to some degree. My dad was on drugs and went crazy but he didn't hurt anyone. My dad has been dead for awhile. His pain is gone now.

What I mean is that he was dead inside for awhile. But...fuck he was amazing. I just saw his blood on the ground on WCHS. I feel sick.

I can sympathize with that. My dad passed out at work and a couple days later, we found out it was the result of brain cancer. His mind steadily deteriorated from that point.

Seeing a person lose themselves isn't a pleasant experience.

Tendollar, I listened to a lot of music in the Summer after my aunt and best friend died. it helped a bit, for me. I know you hate the type of music I listen to, so I'm just going to quote a certain line of lyrics that helped me especially:

They're simple lyrics, yes, but they still...fit.

Death is the greatest escape known to man. Your father is never going to hurt again.

And if there's an afterlife, I'm sure he's in it.

This song helped too.

Goddamn, this is terrible.

I know we do not talk much on the forums, but I feel the need to give my deepest condolences. It's beyond my mind why this would have to or should happen to anyone in this world, and although I can't even begin to grasp the pain, just trying to imagine it is making me sick. That you are dealing with this is beyond tragedy.

At least I can see that you're finding silver linings in the light of this incident and that you're taking it very maturely. May all the lessons that he ever imparted upon you remain with you for as long as you live - from what I've read he was a very compassionate man and he cared for you.

May you find the best fortune in your life, as he surely intended it.

#172: Jan 17th 2012 at 7:18:13 PM

... what can you say in a situation like this?

It's hard to imagine someone who I have less in common with, yet you inspire me, tendo. It seems like you've been dealt an extremely unfair hand of cards in life, yet you've somehow managed to keep going.

I hope that you go on to a good life.
