Awards for Robbie & Me
Drawings & Letters
of How This Site Has Affected Them.


Drawn by Carla L. Martins.
I like to do sketches - in fact I use them as a proof-of-concept for paintings,
(sometimes they dont make it to paintings after spending time with the image - I just dont "feel it".)
and saw a great picture on your tribute website that would make a fabulous painting.
With your permission of course.
I thought you would like to see the sketch that i am working on.
The picture just had such profound emotion in it that I was touched...

This Letter is the Reason for My site!
I received a letter this morning with someone I shared my site with last nite,
The letter was rather long,so I just cut out the appropiate part for 2 reasons,
not to expose the identity of who wrote it and to protect the persons privacy.
But It has touched me deeply and made me cry as I read the entire letter.
Rob
The fact of what it would do to my children kept me from going through with it,
but now that I've read your very special tribute to Robbie I feel
that the pain that I would cause is too much.
Last night I felt that your Robbie,was an angel sent to me
to let me see your message on the computer.
I was on my way to bed when I got the feeling
that I should go on and just play for a little while
and as soon as I pulled it up I saw you and others chatting.
I never go on the chats,but felt compelled to respond to you.
I then went to your site and with tears running down my face
knew that God allowed you and your Robbie to open my eyes
to the reality of what I was contemplating.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for saving me,
so that I may be there for my children.
I'm just sorry that it was done at the expense of all
the pain you're going through. Know that Robbie going to a higher place
at least saved one soul here on earth-
ME

Another Thank You!
I received a note this morning with someone I shared my loss with,
Included with the note was the Angel pen alongside it.


Another Thank You!
Thank you for making this site.
It's because of this that
I chose not to commit suicide...
Thank you...
R.I.P Robbie.

Dear Robert, I am very sorry about your loss.
I lost my best friend to suicide, and after
he died I felt like my life was over. I wanted
to end it right then and there. But then I came
across your site and realized that the pain
and sorrow left for family and friends is
just not worth it. I am 14 and I have attemped
suicide once. After reading your site,
I thank you dearly.
Your words have saved my life....
Please take care, and know that
Robbie is still with you. Thank you!!!

I searched on the MSN search for Suicide and
self harm information, i have been self harming
for a number of years and have attempted suicide
a number of times already.I'm 21 and from England
~ UKI haven't cried for a long time, but reading your words,
your feelings, your heart was truly heartbreaking
and i felt a peice of my heart break along with
ours whilst reading it. i'm still cryingnow.
i couldn't do that to any of them.having read
your words and website for the past 2 hours i
feel very overwhelmed and almost silly at what
i have been doing, i have so much and i was
very prepared to throw it all away, not seeing
my wedding day, my mum and dad and sisters and
the children again, never knowing what my own children
would look like!! i guess i'd like to say
thankyou
for making me realise what i have at home
when i walk through the door, not to moan
when the children want to climb on me and play,
to appreciate having the people i love so
very very much around me and enjoy loving
and living with them. I'd also like to say sorry, for causing pain to the people closet in my heart and also to you and your family and your grandchildren, they love you, children have a way of loving and making u feel so good even when they are not there as i am sure Robbie is still doing for you now. i can't say i understand because i haven't!
lost a child and everyones pain is different
but i've lost a lot of my family members
mostly through car accidents, and even my
best friend, he called me when his car hit
the tree, my number was on speed dial and it
squashed the number and called my phone and
i could hear him on the other end but i didn't
know where he was or what had happened, i just
heard him say i love you and see ya, we never
said good-bye, always see ya! but cutting my life
short is not the way to see him again,
i'll have to wait and i'm ok with that now,
you are an Angel and doing something so painful
in your heart to talk like u are but something
so helpful and good to others.
Bless you forever. Thank you

As I sat reading through your poems
looking at your pictures and experiencing the pain
through your eyes, I began to cry uncontrollably....
I have had many suicide attempts and have been
in a depression for months now...I guess
I've been believing that my children,
parents and everyone else would be better
off without me around...you have
helped to remind me that I would be causing
them untold grief and sorrow, something
which I would never do intentionally.
THANKYOU...
You have saved my life tonight
and changed my childrens lives too
...God Bless You
