Dear Britt,

3 years ago I lost my only son and my world as I knew it came to a crashing halt.I was divorced since 1998 and while my parents did live in the next house I was coping with all of it pretty much alone. I was working in northern India then and my son was in Dubai. 

None of us here I think ever had the chance to say goodbye and I will never say goodbye because the day I do that I fear I I'll go slowly mad.

I feel for you being alone and coping but you are not alone. Here we are all with you all the way to listen, share, weep, talk, inspire in our moments of strength and just be there. The pain you feel is enormous and I am so sorry that you have to go through it. 

23rd Dec it will be 3 years that my son passed in a car accident. Right now I am in India and it is the Diwali festival. I can see my son a young lad wearing fresh clothes, all excited in the early morning wanting to burst crackers and all that goes with Diwali. These flashbacks are vivid and I miss my child so much.

You will find that as time goes by the love you shared with your son will keep you warm. I pray that you get the strength , peace, love in your life to live. You are not alone. Please take care. I haven't been online often as I was travelling with my husband, an angel who came into my life one and a half years after I lost my son. 

I have learnt that life will change and when the changes are good I need not feel guilty about it and resist it. 

Lots of love to you and all my friends here.

Dolly that tree looks magical. Connie I empathize with every word you say. Teresa, Michelle take care.

It will be one year on December 3 that my son died it feels like the pain is getting worse. Everything I do seems to remind me of my son not a moment goes by that he does not come to mind. It has been hard for me because I have no one to grieve with just about everyone we both know have died. I have so much I have kept inside from not knowing the cause of his death till after he died, and not receiving a call that he was dead until the day after he died. I never said good bye, and I never knew how he felt. You see I did not see my son for a little over a year prior to that we were estranged. A few people I spoke with think he pushed me away because he did not want me to see him dying because of the fact I lost my Mother when I was young. I lost my husband my son's father in 2001, and others dear to me. I really have no family to speak of expect my youngest child who is 12, and it is not their responsibility. I am hanging on for my youngest child otherwise nothing in my life to look forward too. I could use a person that is going through the same thing to talk with.

Dolly

I love your house.

You are "one with nature".

I spend a lot of time walking now, we have beautiful hiking trails where I live. I find Mother Nature is the only sense of peace I can find.

We watch the tree 'dance' from the front doors of our house that sits on a hill just above the little clearing where the tree is growing....

Comment by Connie K on October 22, 2014 at 9:50pm

No doubt Dolly that tree is a sign to you that Brandon is dancing too!

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
