Stories of Other Loss

Taken Angel
by Jamie, , U.S.A.

I never got to know my baby cousin Alex. The last time I saw him he was only a week or so old. The morning I got the call was crushing. All I knew was he was gone. I did not know why or how.

His mother ran with him and his older brother Jason. Even though my Cousin had custody in another state he could not get his children back. He did not even know where they were. He heard of his youngest son's death by his sister who's friend read it in a paper.

On the way up to his funeral I wondered how he died. Knowing his mother does not allways use a level head and claimed she lived with a very violent man, I thought the worst. And it was the worst. I found out when I got there that he was killed.

I was told that his mothers boyfriend had been taken into custody. They said Alex died from a crushed heart. Someone had put enough pressure on his little chest to collaps his rips and crush his heart.

I went to his funeral and saw his mother. It was hard to be kind but we all managed well. His father was slowly falling apart and we helped him as much as we could. It had been almost two years since he got to see his sons and now one was in a coffin.

The other child was taken into custody. The father is trying to get him and we will know soon if he does or not.

Alex was only two years old and never got a chance in life. Looking at him in his little cofin broke my heart. I wish I had got to know him better but love him I allways will.
