Jimmy ~ Pat
By Dawn Saul
My sweet boy you had to go.
The reasons are for God to know.
Laugh and play in celestial skies.
No more worries, no more lies.
I know you tried to be so strong.
Hiding your struggles for so long.
Released from burdens of this life.
Now renewed in the afterlife.
Without the pain and the dread.
Your angel wings are fully spread.
Time to soar in ecstasy.
Send some Angels to comfort me.
Whisper a prayer in God’s right ear.
Ask him to help your Mother dear.
Tell him Mommy cries each night.
For my eternal Golden Knight.
It helps to know you’re up above.
Sending blessings and your love.
Finally, FOREVER seizure free.
In Heaven’s sky, please wait for me!
A poem written in honor of my son, James Patrick ‘Jimmy’ Saul who died of an Epileptic Seizure July 2009
My son Justin died from epilepsy three years ago when he was 21. He is the second of four children and was diagnosed when he was about 10. When the Doctors made the diagnosis (he had grand mal and absence seizures), they didn't tell us that our child could die from this condition. The loss of him is just as intense today as it ever was.
