My son died. This is what happened. This is my reality. Ask me about him. It’s okay to ask. What are questions for if not for asking? He is still my son.
Don’t pretend he never existed. Don’t whisper about it behind my back. Don’t tell me that I can ‘try again’. Don’t change the subject when I talk about him. He is still my son.
Ask me about my baby. Ask about his birth stats. Ask to see his picture. I’m still proud to be his mom. Ask me about him. He is still my son.
