Profile Information
- About Me:
- I am a 52 year old mother who lost the yougest of her three children. He was only 25. Icalled him Nathaniel because it means a gift from God. They say it was an overdose that he died of. They say April 8th, 2009. But I say April 7th 2009.
- About my Loss:
- I would give anything in the wqrld to have been with him holding him in my arms that night. Nathan had a hard time struggling with life, love, and alcohol and drugs but he was still my gift from God. I feel very guilty over his death like I could have changed that last day or that last week or the last fights or especially the last things I said. It was five months ago and it feels like its even getting more painful every second of every day. There's many times that I don't want to be without him.

"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

We all share the bond of grief on this website and after the tragic death of my 33 daughter daughter (and only child) I found compassion and understanding with the other members.
Like you there are so many times I feel I just want to be with her...
My experience with this "thing called grief" is that it gets worse before it gets better and others have told me it never really leaves us, we just learn to cope with it as the days go on. (my daughter was killed in a tragic accident on Memorial Day of this year)
Writing about my daughter has really helped me cope and sharing with the other members seems to help.
Take care.
Sincerely,
Laura
