Reading the original post led me to this article on your site: https://matt.might.net/articles/my-sons-killer/#full

This is just to say I found it incredibly compelling and moving; I hope mentioning it doesn't make you feel bad.

Nothing to feel bad about. Thank you for sharing that too.

My son’s life changed my own in profound ways, and even though he died four years ago, he is still changing my life in profound ways. I am always grateful for the reminder and to reconnect with the purpose that his life gave to mine.

That post also reminds me that while he was alive, I did the best I could for him under my abilities, and that’s all any parent can do in the end.

If you want to know more about his life, I wrote on it here: https://bertrand.might.net/
