Thank you so much.  That means a great deal to me.  yes...It was a love like no other.

hello renee,

i hope you are having an o.k. day. its amazing on how our stories might be different but yet we both share the same feelings of loss. and yes you are right being a one parent to my son, is by far difficult on top of everything else but my son does make me stronger.

Hi renee,

I understand your grief and sudden loss. I wish there were words that could heal us all...and give us relief. Its very hard when there are so many questions unanswered. Try your best to keep your head up and remember we will see our loved ones again soon. They can see better than we can and they are not grieving where they are at because they know they will see us again. 

Love Robin Charles

Hi Renee

Thank you for your comment. It took more than 1 year to finally get the murderer into custody, but it just finally happened on the 25th of June. We still have a long process ahead of us with the Court system but I have faith that Justice will happen and he will face the consequences for taking my husband's life away.

I too believe in ok days. I was just recently discharged from therapy as I attended on a weekly basis since my husband was murdered. Now I am in a way on my own without no psychologist to hear or help me no more. I learned many things about myself. There are days that breathing seems impossible and feel that half of my heart was also taken away when my husband was murdered. My life forever changed. I went from having my whole family, the love of my life, whom we shared the joy of having our son, to being a Widow at the age of 26 and with a 19 month old to raise both financially and emotionally on my own. If you read my posts, it has been a really tough road for me. There are days very low and then ok days. I can say to take one day at a time, but when things get too much, i just take it "one breath at a time".

take care,

Amanda

i am sorry renee i know you know her.
