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 feel like I can't go on - I don't want to go on without him. It's been just over 3 weeks since I lost my husband. The pain is too much to handle. He was only 51. We should have had so many more years together. I see old couples and think that will never be us. I just hope I don't have to live too long without him. I can't imagine it. I'm so lost and alone without him. He was my everything.

Well today is another hard day..,I think about the week to come, I will be going to my sons graduation yet he won't be there . I came to the realization that this will be the last time his name will be spoken in such a big public place... Then it will just me longing to hear his name again...I was alittle irritated with the school they haven't really kept us in the loop and tried to sweep this all away ... Don't they know if they wouldn't have played there football game so far away my son would still be alive to except his deploma this next week.,, I'm just mad and sad... He had given so much to his school and they just want to ignore him now...michelle

It is very hard to loose that special one, especially when they have always been there for you. I lost my husband suddenly 1 yr ago and I still struggle day to day, some days its really hard and I just know he would want me to get on with my life but how do you go from being a couple to being just one?

JB definitely when everything is said and done your family are there when no one else is. Cherish the time that you have with your family and when you wake everyday be thankful for this day. I hope you suffering eases, I know that for me it has been very hard after my brother passed, but I realize now that he is in a better place and that despite the terrible means of his passing I am so grateful for the years that I shared with him. I know it sounds cliche but it is true, think back on all the good times and all the times that you were afforded the opportunity to tell your father that you love him. I am pained right now because my father is suffering terribly from the lose of his son. I see it everyday when I am with him, this was the most difficult thing for him to bury his son. Please keep my father, Carlton, in your prayers as I pray for you and your family. Be well.
Collin

Carla, I am so sorry to hear of your loss....I too lost someone( my 17 year old son) in an auto accident...he was only the passenger and yes the driver did survive... I feel this was a mistake on behalf of who ever is calling that all so important shots of life or death... He was brillent, beautiful, talented and loved the truth is they shod have taken a worn out soul as myself and let him move on and give the world all the wonderful gifts he had to offer... to take my son is to take us both... I feel such pain daily, hourly if is unexplainable... I hope you can find this peace and exceptemce I bear do much of...but truly I sorry for your pain.,..Michelle

"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
