Mom, Mom, I'm Sorry

by Jody MacDonald


My son Evan died on February 1, 2005. He was living in Nova Scotia Canada at the time with his father. There is a 2 hour time difference between Texas and Nova Scotia. My ex told me that Evan died at approximately 4:25pm (2:25 my time). At about 3:30am I was sitting at my desk, crying my heart and soul out when all of a sudden I heard my son call out to me with an urgency in his voice: "Mom, mom, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" ... his voice was crystal clear ... just like if he was standing right next to me ... not like when you hear someone's voice in your mind. I know it was my sweet boy calling out to me. I will never forget it. I am so broken without you Evan.
