Quote
TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- The clothes still embrace his scent.

Journals preserve his handwriting, and the words reveal the creative flow of his mind.

Each time Karla Douglas and David Douglas begin packing away his room, vivid memories of their son open their emotions.

Karla seeks therapy. David goes hunting to think. Five months after Aaron Douglas died from a drug overdose at a house party in Florida, his parents still weep often for their son.

I know their feelings. We lost a daughter to cancer in 2003 July 28 at 5:55 PM and it still hurts. We love you guys and are praying for your healing. God Bless!

I can't imagine losing a child. I know it would crush me if something ever happened to one of my daughters or grandson. My prayers to his family and to you, Preacher, that y'all may find some comfort somehow.

This is sad, as all drug related deaths are. I wish I could have a better understanding of why so many people risk their lives everyday by using drugs knowing what the consequences might be. Sad.  :(
