I always encouraged my son to follow his own interests, but exposed him to what I was into. Once he got to high school and started taking "computer science" he really opened up to it and became passionate about it on his own terms. This was amazing to watch unfold and really morphed our relationship into something even more special. Unfortunately the universe decided it was his time to and he passed away a few weeks ago, a week after his 18th birthday and high school graduation. I know he would've gone on to do marvellous things to help our world become a better place, miss ya bud.

Literally - I've had this nightmare. I was shook up for weeks. Can't even comprehend it actually happening.
To the OP: I am so very sorry for your loss.

That sounds beautiful and I'm so sorry for what happened. I can't imagine what you are going through, I'm constantly terrified of something like that happening
