At this very moment, there are no words or gestures that can easy the pain of your family's loss Afterburner. Please accept, my condolences to you and your family. Also, thank you for sharing this to me and all the members/staff of EVGA. I have learned an important lesson of how life can be.
Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags!  The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. When you abuse it, it reverses on you and it hurts you.The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

The moment I saw the title of your thread was changed, all others threads seemed to "fade away" ... My daughter asked me why I had tears in my eyes, I explained why and it also brought tears to her eyes. My sincere condolences to you and your family, Afterburner ... You'll be in my thoughts.

My thoughts are with you Afterburner and your family. I know just what its like to loose a child at an early age. Parents should never outlive their kids. Keep on keeping buddy, take it one day at a time, i know its hard to think this, but it does eventually get easier as time passes. You got a great community here at evga forums for support. Cheers buddy

I am very sorry AB. I didn't post it in my first post, but we lost my oldest son 6 years ago april. After 8 days in ICU with him, I lost him. I started questioning my faith. Then it occurred to me, that this might have been for the best. I would have hated having him awake and having to tell him that he wasn't going to make it. As it turns out, God knows best. No one knows why these things happen, but it must be for a good reason. It took a long time before the pain wasn't completely unbearable, but we fight thru for those we love who still remain. I will pray for you and your family and know you will be ok soon.

I am sooo sorry to hear about your loss. I have been following this thread everyday and like many others in this family my heart sank. I am 17 and have the emotional range of a teaspoon but when I read that title, I became extremely angry at myself, there are so many things I take advantage of and after reading that title I realized how lucky I am and how lucky many of us are. AB you have a community here who is willing to support you no matter what. Should anything arise there will always be someone here to back you and your family up.

Some things no one can expect or prepare for are also the things that are near impossible to mend even with time. I am really sorry for your loss. I have experienced similar with my brother passing away, but i am sure that doesn't compare to watching your child do so. I know nothing will make this situation right for you afterburner, but I hope you are able to collect yourself and be able to keep moving forward. Durrnig this difficult time, please try remeber to take care of yourself as well.
