I cry anywhere I can be alone or where no one can see me, and in places where I never cried before. When I weed our vegetable garden in the warm sun, I think of how much Ricky might love a slice of the juicy watermelon we are growing. And I weep. As I keep my hands busy building things around the house, I pause between power drill spins to sob. When I go out for my jog, I occasionally choke up between breaths. On breaks while working, I stand, stretch, and snivel. On long trips, while I drive and my wife dozes off, I tear up.
As a former lifelong Democrat, 100% of this trans plague can be attributed to Democrats and Democrats alone. I finally switched parties years ago when I saw them alone pushing this insanity. Democrats and their elite billionaire cronies are also the ones pushing for depopulation. I’m sure it’s a complete coincidence that all of our institutions schools, hospitals and government are simultaneously pushing autistic teenagers and young adults to become their “ true selves” through sterilization using either chemical or medical methods. The Rothschilds and Schwab’s of the world are surely quite pleased with this. You both sound like wonderful parents, you were let down by society and I am so sorry for that. I pray your son will one day come out of this and back to you. If any of you have lost a child to this cult, please stop voting Democrat. If you cannot do this, than I’m sorry, but you’ve lost the right to be outraged on the topic.
Thanks you for sharing your life story. I can so relate to you and your family. I am a parent and have my son in this cult too. I should share my story like you because it’s so similar. I pray also for this nightmare to be over. Keep the faith.
I'm gutted by this and for what your family has been through.
The number of times that other adults in his life could have intervened to right side your child's ship, to show him another way, to get him help - but instead pushed this forward, illustrates how pervasive and cancerous this ideology is. Once a toe has been dipped into the water, the piranhas come swarming around. Every institution is compromised, every well-meaning but misguided adult pushing children into the gender factory farm.
You are a good and loving parent. Those are the only words I can muster to help you with your pain.
One of the saddest stories I have read on PITT… your son has been stolen and brainwashed by this evil T-cult which has no boundaries. Your pain and suffering is overwhelming but you are not alone. All of us connected to PITT have cried many tears over our loved ones caught in the clutches of this cult. My darling sweet nephew is gone and has no-contact with his parents. I cannot even tell you how many tears my sister has shed over the love and loss for her son. My own tears have been many over this lost boy and I am just the loving aunt. I must believe that God counts every tear drop shed for all these stolen boys and girls and that He understands our deep sadness. Do not lose hope as this façade cannot continue forever. The world is starting to wake up to the truth and is realizing the harm that has been done. For some it may be too late but for other's it is not.
Thank you for your heart wrenching and inspiring story. I thought my tears had dried up, but no, they are still here, and welled up while reading "I Cry on the Beach'. I have a degree of separation (somewhat), as the sick people in my life who have bought into the madness are my beloved grandchildren (that I helped raise) and they turned away from me years ago. My son, their father, has abandoned me for who knows why, his own mental illness? Since I am banished from their lives, I do not know where they are in the scheme of this ungodly mess, have they caved to surgeries, are they ill from the hormones and drugs? How are they surviving? Where are my great grandchildren in all this? I do not know. But I am also given the grace of separation, as you have been given by your dearly loved Ricky. He did it out of his illness and due to the clutches of the vile cult but by keeping close to our God who sees us, dear one, you will survive to continue the fight. He needs each one of us to overcome this evil. Keep leaning into the Father of all, He will never change in this world that makes no sense, that's ever changing. We have glimmers of hope, soon it will be floods, if we do not give up. Thank you, I cry with you. Love, Indio.
I feel your pain. We too have a son born in the early 1990’s who was groomed on Tumblr. Tomorrow is his birthday, the eighth one without him. I will likely find another place to cry “where I never cried before.” I have found that the death of a loved one gets easier to accept as the years go by but when it is you that has been put to death, it gets harder as the years go by. We may feel we are crying alone but, “The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
Thank you for this outpouring of facts and pain. For what it's worth, I am starting to have an intuition that eventually, most if not all of these trans-crazed kids and young adults are going to wake up and come back to their senses. But with what damage? How will they be able to live with what they have done to themselves?
Prayers for you, and for all those affected by this insanity. My sister-in-law is a primary care physician and is worried that she may be required to prescribe puberty blockers or hormones.
Thank you for sharing your story, and for your hopefulness. As long as your boy is alive, there is hope. God bless you. And I'm sorry for your pain and your tears.
We live it too, two daughters… our youngest, her birthday today, left at 18 and we haven’t spoken for 3 years. She’s idolized as so strong by her cult. We Cry today, and every day.
It's time to consider focusing on your son Joshua and let Ricky be seen as the failed relationship that he is.
He'll only come back to you if he truly cracks and it doesn't sound like that's going to happen, so hating your life in favor of him isn't a solution. Its a self-imposed exile from happiness.
I'm an atheist so it's all about this life, the only one we get, and clearly Ricky thinks so too simce he's learned to focus on that belief system and not your own godly one. Time to force some acceptance of that upon yourself and write him off like you would a failed marriage if you ever want to enjoy life again. Or maybe you've come to find solace in your self pitying tears?
Greetings, HappySoul, this is the author responding anonymously. Your comment deserves a response. Thank you for your bluntness. Yes, I have been engaged in self-pity, but I am progressing out of that phase and into the milestone where I take action and work toward achieving as much justice and closure as possible. Your last sentence is especially profound because I must not allow my grief to become a crutch. I am not ready, though, to write off Ricky, his sister and our dear grand baby. My wife, Joshua and Ricky's oldest sister (the loyal one) are in that "let's move on" group. They earned respect for their decision by enduring the years of Ricky's slow, tortuous debacle.
I was an atheist for a great bulk of my younger life. I hope you will one day reconsider your own atheism. I cannot boast an ability to persuade you here and now. I leave you with this: For me, belief grew once I accepted the idea that every watch demands a maker; so it is also with creation.

Such beautiful writing about unspeakable suffering! My heart goes out to you and all other parents who've been thrown in to a living hell.
Really good. Heartbreaking story but yes, let's fight!
If you follow James Esses, you might have seen this latest. Now the cult is targeting older people. https://www.ageuk.org.uk/globalassets/age-uk/documents/factsheets/fs16_trans_issues_and_later_life_fcs.pdf?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

She will need to be strong. As a physician her conscience would demand she first do no harm.
