When my daughter died, I didn’t think I would survive the grief. I was sick with one ailment after another for six months, none of them serious, Thank God. I cannot describe the depth of grief and mental pain a parent feels after the death of their child. It leaves a hole in your soul. Seven years later, I am still seeing a therapist and attend a support group for bereaved parents. My husband died 3 years, 3 months after our daughter died. Cancer killed him, but his grief was so deep, I am convinced that is what killed him. I will grieve the loss of my daughter for the rest of my life. You never get “over it”.
You never get “over it”.

Your post touched me. Oldest brother committed suicide. It broke my parents and haunts me to this day. Holidays are the worst. Thirty-seven years ago and might as well be yesterday. May God bless you and yours.
I’m so sorry for the pain you’re suffering. Thank the Lord the wife and I have not had to go through that but I’ve witnessed parents who find out they’ve lost a child and it’s one the most most horrible things I’ve witnessed.
Prayers for you, FRiend.
I am so sorry to read of your losses. There are no words of comfort any of us can extend to take away the pain. The loss of a child is in a category of its own.
((((Hugs!))))
Don’t know you, but please know my heart goes out to you.
That’s right, you never get over it (my son), you just learn to live a different way.
