• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

The topic says it all. Last year he got dignosed with cancer and was doing bad since then. He had a 16 year old son who was supoused to be a sophmore in the school I go to but they moved to Puliski so his son is a sophmore there. Near the last part of September my sister said at band practice at 5:30pm on proably a Tuesday kids who went to church with this man were crying and she asked someone who was not crying who went to church with this man and he told her that his wife and son decided its best to let him go and be with the Lord. They took him off of life support. She said that there were several kids crying. He was a former bus driver of mine and he always sang the Oscar Mayer song to us when I was in grade 3. I was rideng the specal ed bus until grade 3 but I am so glade I had one year of seeing him drive the bus and singing to us. I even gave him a little oscar mayer beanie baby and an oscar mayer whistle when I was in 3rd grade. He always mowed the grass at the school for grades 4-6 also. I live across the street from the upper elem school and he always waved to me when he saw me outside as he drove up the street in his lawn mower to cut the grass. I know that he is save and at home with Jesus now but please help his family get through this rough time. Expecally the boy. I can not imagine being a sophmore and losing a parent! That just would be really hard. Who will walk him down the aile when he gets marryed? Who will walk him on the field if he gets on homecoming court? Who will be there with him when him and his wife need help with raising a baby? Who will be there to tell him everything that he needs a father for? So many other questions I have. Please just bless this family. The boy's name is Jarad King. The mom's name I do not no but I think its Jennie King and the father who died was Danny King. I miss him so much even though he was just a bus driver, no he was not just a bus driver. He was a caring, loving man who loved doing the jobs he did and he just adored them. Singing to younger kids was a passion of his and I am sure he did something to entertain older kids as well. He just is a man that I will never forget. It just hit me all the sudden that he was also a wonderful man and I should have let him now that alot more then I did. Now its too late and I really wish it wasnt.

Mr.King-You are a wonderful man who I will NEVER forget! Dont forget to wait for me! I will see you someday soon!
