Picking Up the Pieces – a parent's worst nightmare

  • Devastatingly Different

    It’s the toughest thing I’ve ever done. Figuring out how to deal with the extreme grief and loss I felt after my son, David Glasser, was killed has been a brutal journey. He was a Phoenix Police Officer who was killed in the line of duty on May 18, 2016. My life blew up…. and…

  • Surrounded By the Rubble

    I’m standing here ….. surrounded by the rubble of my dreams. They were my dreams for the future of my son, David Glasser, who was a Phoenix Police Officer killed in the line of duty on May 18, 2016. There are times when the piles of my broken hopes and plans overwhelm me.  There are…

  • He Knew It!

    He knew it was important to say it. And he knew how it important it was to show it. My son, David Glasser, was a Phoenix Police Officer who was killed in the line of duty May 18, 2016.  And he knew how important the words ‘Love you’ are. He said these words to his…

  • Not Just One Day

    Davey made a habit of telling people he loved them and showing love to them.  He would say “love you” instead of good-bye to everyone he cared about. He was a Phoenix Police Officer who was killed in the line of duty on May 18, 2016.  And he was my son. Davey thought telling people…

  • The Pain of Permanence

    May 18, 2016 my world blew up – thrusting me into a dark, confusing, very sad place.  A place of grief.  A place I never wanted to go.  My son, David Glasser, a Phoenix Police Officer, was killed in the line of duty. I have had other people very close to me die – my…

  • His Final Words

    I am painfully reminded almost every day how short life can be.  How quickly things change – permanently. My son, David Glasser, was a Phoenix Police officer who was killed over 6 1/2 years ago.  He was doing his job just like he had done every day for 12 years.  But on May 18, 2016,…

  • Look Up!!

    What am I thinking about? What am I focused on? I ask these questions when I find myself in a dark place. When I’m sad. When I’m stuck in yesterday. When the list of what I have lost seems way too long. When my shattered dreams fill my head as the tears drip down my…

  • When There’s No Tomorrow

    The pain is burned into my memory. The grief is deeply etched into my soul. That day – the day my son, David Glasser who was a Phoenix Police Officer, was killed in the line of duty.  May 18, 2016. It’s the day when my life as I knew it exploded.  All my expectations for…

  • They Don’t Know

    How could they possibly know? I just heard it again. Several different people who have lost a child have shared with me that a person in their lives has said to them something like “you’re still crying about that?” Unbelievable. This is a critical, mean and unhelpful thing to say to anyone who is grieving…
