My Beautiful Ricky,
He changed my life forever; he was my soul-mate and my world, and we have a gorgeous son together, Jesse Dominguez. Ricky could do anything! He was fun to be with, warm-hearted and generous; as well as the best friend anyone could ever want. He loved to break all the rules; he loved to laugh and play stupid pranks on people and tell dumb jokes. His smile lit up the room and nobody ever forgot the crazy Mexican!
Things got tough for Ricky and he was hospitalised in Feb 2009. He wanted desperately to put PTSD behind him, but unfortunately he went downhill fast when he began the PTSD Programme and soon after being released from hospital, over the Easter Weekend, he lost his battle and took his own life.
He left behind many devastated people, including his partner, three gorgeous children and two beautiful step-children; we are all utterly heartbroken. His family back home in America, are stunned and are struggling to make sense of it all from a distance.
He, like many veterans before him, is one of the unseen casualties of war, that does not get reported on the news.
He served his new country well, gave his all and returned with a condition he didn't ask for. He is safe in the arms of the Lord now. His suffering is over, but for those of us left behind, it has only just begun..
I love you Ricky, I will love you and miss you forever. I will never get over losing you this way; I feel lost without you by my side.
Yours, Joanne
It's your Birthday
It's your 36 Birthday, Happy Birthday, Mijo, I can picture you dancing away, having a great time. I love and miss your beautiful smile so much.

Don't Judge Me - by Unknown Author
Don't judge me for how I left this world,
Remember the love I gave,
A lot of grief will follow me
For the decision that I made.
Changes appear in everyone's life
Some good, some bad,
The one I chose for myself
Made everyone very sad.
But in time the memories will heal the hurt of hearts
And my presence will be felt by all with an inner peace.
Remember me when the sun is bright and laughter fills the air
And a moonlit night and a whisper of wind
Will tell you I am there.
Don't look down on my family
Or fill their hearts with blame
For my leaving them without good-byes
Has left them so much pain.
If I could go back in time
I would say a last good-bye
I would tell them to look to tomorrow
And for me, please do not cry.
