    Giant Vibrating eternal hugs
    Mornduvt Our thoughts are with you and your son. Speaking from 20 years experience of listening to my wife Candy(PHd and currently has 3 people on suicide watch) work with many who thought life would be better if they ended it--It won't be. Your friends and parents will never get over it. The pain many think goes away by taking that step comes back and hurts those that really care multiplied uncountable times. Perhaps suggesting that your son become a student counselor to work with fellow students may bring something meaningful and helpful out of this tragedy. Watch the movie "Ordinary People" and talk about it .Your son probably also may harbor feelings of anger at his friend and perhaps feels guilty about it. I am going to sound harsh and if I offend don't take it personally.- Suicide is a selfish act. It is one thing to be in terrible physical pain 80 years old with nothing to look forward to. Adolescent suicide is usually an act of anger towards those people which the child is having a conflict with. It may be no fault of the child and unfair (in the case of bullying) however killing one self is not the answer.It most cases therapy or a very brief hospital stay and willingness to work on improving things would be far better. Sometimes chemical imbalances may account for the depression but not always. If you want to talk off line let me know. And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

Strength to you too, to be there to support your son, but sounds like you got that aplenty!********************************** It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

    Warm healing thoughts for you, your son and your whole town. I hope your son's friend at least found the peace he was seeking. Pay attention to your friends, folks. You never know when that funny snort, that odd glance, that moment of wry introspection is really a signal of Something Deeper. Just because it's usually nothing serious doesn't mean that this might not be that one time when all they really needs is a genuine smile from a friend to get them back in the game. Smile on your brother, and your sister, too. Try to love one another right now. Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

    Tough times for teenage son
    Hey Now Friends I am asking for some good vibes for my teenage son, and my whole community. Sorry if this is long-winded. My son has always loved the GD music I played (constantly) - I sang him to sleep (badly) with Ripple when he was a baby & he used to make me rewind Fire on the Mountain and play it over and over when he was about four. He had always said how bummed out he was that he would never get to see the Grateful Dead and have that experience. So when the current Dead tour came around we got some cheap "at least I'm in the show" tix for Albany and Sunday in Worcester. We had a fantastic time. Both shows were fun and he said the Scarlet Fire on Sunday was one of the happiest moments of his life. On Monday that good vibe was shattered. As we were driving home to our small town he received a text message informing him that a friend of his had taken his own life over the weekend. My son was / is devastated. He says that the greatest day of his life was followed by the worst. He can't make sense of it, and neither can I, or anyone else in our community. This was a brilliant, talented, well-liked kid, and nobody can understand how this could happen. So I'm calling out for a cosmic hug for my boy... but also my whole town, and the family of the boy who took his life. I can not begin to imagine what they are going through. Peace to all ~ hug your kids...

Kristinacatfish & Johnman, Oroboros Aunt, Hawkeye, Gigi's Dave &Chubsib -don't fly away,Steve O and mom, PK, and for anyone who needs strength and light to see you through. Cosmetic organic sesame oil (not for cookies & cake :) helps the joints and organs. Rub TOWARD THE HEART for soreness (kidneys, calves..). When you're sad rub on the heart area of spine. If I had a song to sing. LOL

Am going to paste part of an e mail from my mother, that I just found 2 minutes ago. "Hi. Did you hear about David's girlfriend's father dying this weekend and David discovering this when he went to get him for breakfast. This was David's 40th Birthday weekend." David is my brother. Please, friends, send my brother vibes for shock and mourning, and while you're at it, a couple to my mother to help her gain sensitivity. Am cold all over, shocked for my brother, and with the tone that my mother WROTE me this news. ********************************** It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

My youngest sister (53yrs) passed away unexpectly about two weeks ago. She leaves an older step-daughter and a young son, 16. Their father passed away about a year and a half ago. We are overwhelmed by this loss. I never posted in this forum before but I always read it. All of you are good hearted people. I come to this site because of the joy and peace it generates. All of you are an anchor to me, even in the best of times. I thank you all for letting me be in such endlessly "kind" company.

My heartfelt sympathy to you and yours. Wellbeams to deal with the sadness that surrounds your family at this time. May gentle times and kind hearts prevail as everyone struggles to make sense and connect but may not always seem to say it 'right'. Rene, I gave your get well message to pk, and I am hopeful that such healing can return ("the wheel is turning and you can't slow it down") to help your family tenfold. You are the heart of our deadnet family and although the intensity of your passion at times may seem a burden, it is at that core where we all do connect. Take care, Tim The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

I am disheartened to hear of your loss too. Just remember that your tag says it all, go to the Docks of The City and feel the warmness that surrounds you (especially the people that love you in here). May you get through this hard time not without the waves, but the strength to let the pillars of your dock stay firm throughout all those waves!

docks of the city said: >I come to this site because of the joy >and peace it generates >All of you are an anchor to me, >even in the best of times. >I thank you all for letting me be >in such endlessly "kind" company. docks of the city, that is a beautiful sentiment. I feel the same way. This beautiful place in ourselves is also the source of our strength. I will keep your sister in thought, in this place of shining light. Eyes of the World Right outside this lazy summer home You ain't got time to call your soul a critic, no Right outside the lazy gate Of winter's summer home Wondering where the nuthatch winter's Wings a mile long Just carried the bird away Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own There comes a redeemer and he slowly, too, fades away And there follows his wagon behind him that's loaded with clay And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom and decay And night comes so quiet, its close on the heels of the day Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own Sometimes we live no particular way but our own And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home Sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world But the heart has its beaches, its homeland and thoughts of its own Wake now discover that you are the song that the morning brings But the heart has its seasons, its evenings and songs of its own Eyes Of The World Lyrics By: Robert Hunter

I wish to thank all of you for your warm words. I have a couple of standout memories of my sister that are sustaining me. One is from when she was 11, we took her with us, her three older sisters. to the Human Be-In in Golden Gate Park. We dressed her up in vibrant red Mexican pancho that belonged to me, and homemade beads. She wore the same outfit to her first Fillmore concert, perhaps the same year. It was a sunday afternoon show and the Mothers of Invention played. She laughted in the strobe. I can see her now. I talked to her son about an hour ago and he is listening to the Beatles. and so it goes........... Peace & Music, down by the docks of the city.
