This is probably the less appropriate place for this, but i feel it is just too much for me to handle. My baby daughter haven't come back from sleep, don't know what happened yet - possible cause fatal drug combination, zoloft and some painkiller she took before go to bed. She just turn 18 a few days ago and was so happy she can buy cigarettes on her own. Now I still see her online in skype, write unspoken words and afraid to hit enter because that bad dream will become a reality - she will not reply anymore... I thought I've seen crap in life, but picking a coffin for my child top everything off. I know, I'm not first and unfortunately not the last father loosing his child, you don't know her but if you, good people, can find in your heart to say simple "Good bye Jessica" this monday at 1 pm est please do so. I don't expect everyone to post here, I do realize there is no word capable to fix this... And I dont feel up to continue with the whole art thing any longer. At least for now, when sense of being peels off from everything. Thanks everyone. This account will be abandoned for some time, I would take my time to readjust my life with half of soul left .
Our thoughts are with Fool and his family. Let's all say goodbye to Jessica at 1 PM EST today. (February 15, 2010)
I've already said it on DA: be strong, man. I'm with you...
@ Varuks, Lets call each other by how we know each other. Even if we take real life happenings into our digital world.
Fool,
Мои соболезнования.
Take your rest, and pick up life again. We all know in our hearts Jessica will be doing fine. I can hardly imagine what it must feel like to have one of your childs die, and I wish you and your wife a lot of strength for the coming period.
Good bye Jessica,
Good luck Fool!
Goodbye, Jessica - realy sorry for your loss, fool...
Have you now shame to call Yuriy Gusav in his nickname?! If you don't now his name then atleast use the time to check.
Goodby!
Jeez, I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm genuinely sorry for your loss. I got a little son coming in a few months so I can't even imagine how you must feel.
I hope one day you can pick yourself back up and do your art again as you are one of the most talented pixel artists I've ever seen.
Condelences. Goodbye Jessica.
Goodbye Jessica. You are in a better place now.
My thoughts go to Fool and his family.
As a longtime lurker of this site, I'm quite disappointed that it took me precisely 1 hour and 38 minutes to sign up too late.
A belated goodbye, Jessica. Though, I'm sure it's not truly goodbye, now is it?
Fool, you did your best. I'm proud of you for holding on enough to even speak to us at such a time, as I know if I lost my children, contact would be the last thing on my mind, and reunion the first. Lots of love for you and your family.
Goodbye Jessica.
I am a Father too and cannot possibly imagine what you are feeling and going through.
Why do such bad things happen to good people?!
Fool, we are here for you and our thoughts are with you always.
Goodbye, Jessica.
So sorry to hear that. And now I just feel horrible for being jealous of you. :(
Good bye Jessica. I'm really sorry for your loss, Fool.
Yuriy, I wish there was something I could actually do to help, but all I can do is type static words into this little box.
It's interesting how people feel they get to know an artist, simply through his work. We're all pained to here about this because you're our very valuable peer.
Very sorry for your incomprehensible loss. Try to concentrate on the future, though.
Goodbye, Jessica.
Goodbye, Jessica.
Later today we are also burrying a young person in New York, who died of no clear cause. I will hope, as I say goodbye to him, the same peace for Jessica and her father and family as I do for him and for his.
This is too fucked up for words. I am myself a father, and can't imagine going through anything like this, and still ending up sane. For what it's worth Yura, I'm SO, SO sorry.
Sorry To HEar THat Fool 
Our THoughts Are With YOu And YOur Family ....
Good Bye Jessica ....
REST IN PEACE ....
Goodbye Jessica,i hope if u stay a better place.
Fool my condolences.
Right now I feel hill at ease to write these words, because I'm not sure this is my role, but you must know I'm deeply sorry, and I wish you to live in the best possible way with this loss.
My sincere condolences.
Goodbye, Jessica.
I'm keeping both of you in my thoughts today.
Oh my god, this is terrible news! :-(
I'm wordless, it must be terrible to lose a daughter or a son... I'm so sorry, nobody deserves what you must be feeling right now. I don't know you and all I can do is to hope you the best during these heartbreaking days. I don't believe in God, but if I would, you and Jessica would be in my prayers.
Looking fordward to confort you a bit with these words.
Rest in peace, Jessica
Good bye Jessica, sorry to hear that Fool, gut wrenching news. You've been a huge inspiration for so many people on Pixeljoint, when you get back to your art we'll be here anticipating the best.
I don't want to come off as rude or anything but am i the only person to think it's kind of innapropriate to be posting this as a news article here?
That aside, I'm deeply sorry for your loss, Fool. May Jessica rest in peace.
Sorry about this sad situation, hope you and your familly can overcome this sad situation with the time, Good Bye Jessica... you Had the best of the fathers
Espero que tu puedas traducirlo, me expreso mejor en español.
no me salen las palabras realmente, pero, si puedes hacer cosas tan increíbles (como dibujar por ejemplo), ojala te sea fácil convertir las penas en bellos recuerdos, y así completar eso que está faltando dentro tuyo... me gustaría decirte que podrías hacer un lindo dibujo en su honor, pero tu verás la manera de sobrellevarlo.
Ojala tu vida esté llena de bendiciones de ahora en más, que fue un golpe duro, pero creo que esas cosas forman a uno como persona.
Miles de personas te darán su apoyo. Pero ni yo ni nadie somos una persona más que te dice "lo siento", sino que todos estamos realmente contigo, aunque ni te conozcamos, ya que creo que a todos se les pone la piel de gallina en solo pensar en lo que te paso, y por eso yo y cada uno de los que te lo decimos, te lo decimos desde el corazón. :)
Hey Fool, this is so terrible, and so unfair.
There's so little we can do but feeble words.
You mean a lot to us here, not only through your art but your kindness as well.
Good bye Jessica. See you Fool, I'll be thinking about you.
I’m so sorry...
I don't know what I can say for you... It was with great sorrow that you learned..
I can't post at 1PM today, but I said "Good bye Jessica" in my heart.
I could not imagine the horror of loosing your own child. I am so sorry fool.
If I could give you a little piece of my soul to get you through this you could have it. My heart , thoughts and prayers go out to you.
Im so sorry Fool, that's just terrible.. I know how hard it will be for you now but keep your head up.
I won't be able to say good-bye at 1PM, but I feel a lot of genuine saddness for what you've got to go through, Fool. I wish I could say something to make you feel better, but there aren't any combination of words in the English language that I know of, that can make such a miserable situation at all better. It's terrible, and it's unfair that someone with as much talent and likeable personality as you has to go through this; and far more a tradgety that your daughter passes before her time. At the very least, you have 18 years to recall fondly and I'm sure you have an ever-lasting sense of pride in what she did with her life.
I will miss your work Fool; you are my favoirte artist on the site. You made me recall moments of my childhood with what your inventive narritives and designs, and I always looked forward to gazing at your postings for hours. You've surly inspired me to do as well as you.
A sad good-bye Jessica, and a sad good-bye Fool.
My heart truly goes out to you and your family my friend! I can't even begin to imagine how you feel right now. I too have a child. He's only three. And is my world! The thing that gets me out of bed every single day. And to lose him even in thought is unbearable.
I know you will remeber the wonderful moments the two of you shared. I know Jessica will never be forgotten.
Again, my condolences.
Dear Yuriy,
I am so sorry! This is not of God to be blamed on!.She is with God now! I am not laughing, I am very very serious! She is with God now. I now it!
May God be with you!
You are my favorit artist in here and it would be very sad if you wouldn't come back here, because I wanted to learn from you.
I am unable to post at 1PM today. However, my heart is saddened for fool and his wife and the whole family. This is terrible news and my heart is with the family.
Nothing can be worse than losing a kid
