Today is one of the worst days I have ever had. At 2.00 am I was called at home to learn that my son was the victim of a knife attack in our city. Some drug lunatic stabbed him very badly in the neck.

He had to have emergency surgery. He lost so much blood that he hasn't stabilized yet.

I'll spend my time with him this week at hospital. As I spent the entire night with him last night, right through surgery.

I love my son and true friend. He is a great boy and I simply do not understand why somebody would try to kill him for no apparent reason.

It just doesn't make sense.
