Traumatic, Sudden Loss
I have started this group for people who like myself have suddenly, tragically and traumatically lost a loved one.
My mom died 8 weeks ago (August 17, 2009) She had been sick but I did not know the true extent of her illness. Her doctor knew she did not have long and I went to each doctor visit and talked to him at the hospital and he never told me and I do not believe mom knew either. I am not sure.
I found my mom sitting up on her bed and I know I knew she was gone. I still am in deep shock and cry occasionally but only a minute or two. Then I am back to not feeling or feel numb.

I went to my sons grave sight today...I was feeling ok before and heart broken when I left ... I just want him back..I went in his room to put the bear my daughter gave him for graduation and the tassel of a fellow classmate I'm sure it was 2012... And I was done everything is just there kids writing such thoughtful thing to my son and it's just wrong we never did anything wrong. How could this happen someone leave to go to a football game( a school event ) and never come home... I sure hope there is a heaven. For my son and I hope it didn't hurt... Every day is hard.. Sorry for the babble but I just can't except this. I stl hope they were wrong and he wil. Find his way. To me.. Hugs to all this had been a horrible bad/ long month...Michelle

I put flags on my father and uncle's grave on Sunday. They were both Veterans. The least I could do to honour them.

Cynthia you have nothing to be sorry for. This is the place to let all that anger and frustration out. Life is so unfair. You have every right to be angry with God for taking your son so soon after your brother. Im having a horrible day today too and I dont know why today Im such a mess but I am.Hugs from another mom without her son who understands how hard it is

Its been almost 3 months since my son was killed three days after I burried my brother. I am still hurt and now feeling bitter and alone. I know there's a God, I prayed to him about everything, but when my son and his friend was gunned down like a dog in the street I lost my faith. I thought ...no I really believed that when I prayed and asked God to protect my family.... he would. He didn't protect my brother, he didn't protect my son and now I have to pray and ask God to take away my pain. My son was killed 2 days before my birthday.. I would have given up my life for my son to never see that birthday. I'm so sorry members but i'm still hurting.

I am too still worried about my lil sister - have been praying (never been religious) just to ask that she is well taken care of... I feel so bad she was alone when it happened...if sn was there she would have ben taken to hospital in time... keep playing the dreadful last hour in my head when she called friends to say she had a pain... never called me as i live in dif timezone abroad..i keep playing the scene and keep seeing her so beautiful before the burial.. i kept kissing her.. i can't believe she is gone.. I miss her physical being...she is my only soulmate....my life will always be drier and darker

"is griefshare a website like this?"
"Kali
I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
