Happy Birthday Maxwell Falk from Big Marco Island Florida
Even on Florida's Big Marco Island Goonies Never say Die! I don't often say out loud how much I miss my son whom I've not been able to hug for more than a decade because he's been misinformed, okay lied to by his own father about his mother's love and then when you add that he doesn't know that he's a beneficiary of a trust and his grandparents William Willitts and Patricia Willitts have actually used him as nothing more than a write off for a capital gain. Because my own mother who is Max's grandmother has written me notes that she's praying for my death? What good can she possibly want for my son. As a mother? Yes of course this breaks your heart, but I must break a cycle of abuse and hope that when I accomplish this I can sit down with my son and tell him exactly what my grandfather told me. Max Falk, you are absolutely perfect as yourself, never give up, question what you are being told and remember that you taught me about propaganda and think for yourself and know that you are loved every darn day by your mother and the spirit of your Grandma Gert who adored you and was someone who I know is wanting the best for you, just like your mom. You are loved my son. Remember to stand up for your sister, don't let the family divide the two of you and Goonies never say die!

Find yourself in Florida alone February 17th? Remember your son Maxwell Falk's Birthday. Decorate a beach with bright colors add pirate and celebrate Goonie Style!




Even with 35 years sober it's a long solo road to recovery. My son Maxell Falk? I think he's "entitled" to his mothers love.




It's in the "Job description". My job as a Falk mom is to equally and unconditionally love both of my children. So happy birthday Maxi!!




Sitting beside me is my little dog Gigi, and she's 13 which means my sweet son saw her but once before being pushed out of my life by people who are not good parents. Sadly that's my "family".


Every year that we're apart doesn't mean we're not family! That doesn't lessen the pain on the day you were born my sweet little son Maxwell. So today, in your honor? A perfect pink shell same color I wore when I first held you in my arms.


If you search your memory banks my son? You'll remember that we three always loved bodies of water.




Over the years without you? I spoke a lot about you my son to the other sons of other mothers.


If life is like a movie? Remember a favorite. Goonies Never say Die!




You may not remember the loving days in Florida in your grandma Gert's arms, but I believe she was there in a special way!


Almost like a divining rod on the beach pointing the way




We had already crossed many bridges just to make the beach


Heron's are symbolic of keeping one foot grounded and the other in Heaven.


In spirit? I have blanketed you in love since the day you were born. That will never change.




No doubt we've had a savage journey


I comb the beach looking for the perfect Maxi shell.




Maybe barnacles just mean that I have watched your shell be covered. Today? Let it be colored in love.


Never forget that you have a Falk Grandmother in Florida who adored you. On you, the sun rose and set.




I think the owl was a good omen. A way to remind Max Falk he is loved every day from coast to coast.
