I too lost my first born son last year, on Christmas Day, he was 34, never married and no children of his own. The grief you feel is known to me. The pain you feel will ease with time but his memories you will always have. Only God knows why he takes some and not others so early, life is a great mystery. May God Bless you and your family in your time of need. |

JadeDone User ID: 2546215 United States 10/24/2011 05:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am so sorry for your loss. 12 years ago I lost my daughter suddenly. She was 2. The first couple of years that followed are a blur now, a gift in hindsight. I never thought I would learn to live again. I thought I would never smile or laugh. I know you are feeling the same. I wish you and your family peace and strength. The years ahead are difficult. The loss never goes away, but the sharpness of the pain does lessen in time if you allow it. Cry when you want. Let yourself grieve. In time you will realize that your son would want you to live and be happy. Prayers for peace and strength to you and yours. |

KonspiracyKitty User ID: 1295140 United States 10/24/2011 05:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am so very sorry. I do not have any children, but I lost my brother, aged 29, in 2004 in an accident. Despite how very painful it was for me my mother was...broken. I never thought she would ever be okay, and I never thought the grief would pass. The overwhelming sense of finality and desire to 'wake up' from this horrible nightmare is something we cannot prepare for. Today, seven years later, although the pain truly never went away, the grief has subsided. You stop focusing on the tragic event and more on the happy times. My mother is okay now, and I think I credit that to her faith. She started going back to church after he passed away and she found great comfort this way. Please do not mourn the death, but celebrate the life. Know that despite any regrets you may have, or any things left unsaid that you wish you would have told him - he knows that you love him, and he know what is in your heart. If you are a person of faith, take comfort in knowing that he is with God now in a place of no sorrow, no pain. You will make it through this, and know that even when the grief seems too much to bare take peace in knowing he is in a better place and you will see him again.

Quoting: exiled1 My son was killed in a car accident yesterday. It is so painful to type these words, but I know there are good people on here and I really need all the help I can get right now. One month away from his twentieth birthday, didn't even make it out of the teens...damnit it hurts, and I feel so bad for his brother, he has no other siblings. I really thought I was through with the loss, I thought I had no more to lose...never thought this would happen, never even entertained the thought. I really believed I was making a comeback and things were starting to get better. Why this, why now??? I just returned from picking out caskets for him, believe me there is nothing more heart breaking to have to do...I still can not believe this is really happening. Family have been here fortunately but times like this when I am alone, gets pretty rough. One minute I am fine, the next you get knocked over by an overwhelming sense of grief or something...it really is too much to handle, I don't know what to do. I just wish i could go back in time and stop it from happening somehow... I don't know what to say, but please, please just say a prayer for us...I really don't think I am coming back from this one....its hurts so damn bad knowing you will never see him again...He was my fishing buddy and we never made the time to go out this past summer. The missed moments are tearing me up right now, didn't know I could hurt this bad. i am usually tougher than this. I love you buddy I'm here for you. So sorry for your loss. He is in a better place. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 672541 United States 10/24/2011 05:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Op, I am so, so sorry. I understand the grief you are feeling. My youngest child and only son died 3 years ago. He was also 19, just 6 weeks shy of his 20th birthday. The pain I felt is indescribable. And although not a day goes by that I don’t think of him, and miss him, the pain is not as overwhelming and constant now. The sharp agony has eased to a dull ache. The anger has lessened. Life has continued, even though his hasn’t. You won’t be able to believe it right now, but hold the thought deep inside somewhere , as you live through the despair ahead, when all you want to do is die from grief….you will someday, slowly, start to come out of the darkness. For now, we cry with you. Sending much love and strength to you and yours. |
