- About Me:
- I'm 54 yrs old. I had 3 children, now 2. I was a stay at home mom and enjoyed raising my children. After they were all in school I went back to college and started working. My life was all about the kids. My husband is very busy at work, he is a teacher and a wrestling coach. We are a very family orientated parents. My oldest daughter is a career orientated person. She is wonderful and one of my best friends. My middle daughter is also a teacher and is married to a teacher. They just had their first child. A baby girl that is just beautiful.
- About my Loss:
- My son was 27 years old and had moved back home to continue his education. He was such a fun loving person. He was killed in a hit and run crime this summer on July 23rd, 2012. He was killed instantly. They found the driver and the hearing is coming up in May. My love for my son is very profound. I miss him every day. There is a hole in my heart because I have lost one of my children. I cry all the time and find it very hard not to be sad.

"Welcome to the group. I lost my partner on February 5th this year, so it's still pretty raw for me too. Reading through your story really touched a chord with me. Like you, I didn't think I would ever find a group like…"
Being the Other Woman/Other Man
This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

Welcome Toni, So So sorry about your wonderful son..!
I so hope you find comfort here with others that truly do understand and feel your pain. Hugs from one broken mom to another. Brad's Mom ---- Karen
Hey Toni, I just read your message to all members and let me say I cry with you. I know your pain all too well. I can relate to what you said about time only making things worse, NOT "better". I must have said that a thousand times. My 21 yr old son was robbed of his young life almost 2 1/2 yrs ago and my pain and my anger has not eased 1 bit. He was riding his friend's motorcycle when he was chased and rammed into another vehicle. He survived in ICU for 1 week before he passed away. Just saying, writing, typing or even thinking those words "my son passed away", still blows my mind and seems so unreal. I will NEVER accept this........how could I? It will never be "OK", as people would like me to believe. This is a tortuous pain, and I have more bad days than good......whatever good is. I don't know how I have survived this long and I am sorry that I don't have any encouraging words, except, keep writing on this site or others like it, because it means a lot to have your feelings validated and not judged by others that sincerely but unfortunately understand. I will forever be broken. Sending many hugs to you!
