Loss of a Child


Died too young

I lost my 15 yr old son,,and also his friend in 07.They died in a tragic car accident...I wasn't able to see my son,due to the severity of the crash,and fire.Somedays I feel it just happened, like yesterday.There is the bad days where the pain of loss,almost takes my breath away.We continue on,but only by Ghe grace of god,and support from many who are there,to give a hug,hold a hand,listen...Share a memory..Life is changed forever,and a person is never the same.Heartache we live with everyday.....

I can't imagine the pain of losing a child, especially at such a tender age. I have never experienced anything anywhere near similar so will not try and offer any advice but will simply offer my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

I too lost my son in 07. he had just turned 21 in oct 06, yes it very difficult my husband and daughter and i all grieve differently, in all our conversations we talk about him. michael was in a wreck,he and a friend had been out drinking (michael was the passenger) he died instantly his freind suffered multiple injuries,he will be ok. i have my days, too many arent good ones but i cover up always trying to keep a smile and positive attitude but inside i am hurting. i visit with him as often as i can and let my frustrations and whys and anger out.i was told to take one day at a time,i do. your family and friends will always be there for you when you need them.unfortunately for me may of this year was two years that my sister or i havent spoken except if it involved our parents health. who knows maybe there will be a positive outcome for that situation, i dont dwell on it . i know who i can talk to when i really need someone.

I am so very sorry for your loss. My son, Cole, died on March 17th of this year. I have joined a group called Compassionate Friends. We meet the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays at 7:30 at Hayes Barton Church. This has been an amazing help to me. Their web sight will be a good place for you to get an idea of the mission. I KNOW these holidays are rough. May you be blessed. Cathy
