AP-I hold on to the hope that I will see him again. I pray I will get to see him again, it's what keeps me going, that and my youngest son. Just a few short months ago our worlds seemed "normal" then all comes crashing down. Thank goodness once again for this site. Here is a place you can let loose. Yesterday was a "bed" day (a day where all I can do is stay in bed, no energy, no nothing)for me. Today I have a doc appt so I have to get up. Here I go rambling again. Please know I care and you can count on me/us. Hugs...Peace

Jill - Thank you for responding to my comment, I appreciate you reaching out and making a connection. I too am here for you. I read about your son, and of course, I have no words. I know the feeling of one minute "life is beautiful" and the next minute it is "a nightmare," with no escape because I am awake, it is real. Though our children's passing will never make sense, I am constantly aware that my daughter is not here and that death is final in this world, but I do have faith that I WILL see her again.

AP-I am so very sorry for your lose. I lost my son a little over two months ago. I haven't been on this site too long and it can be quite confusing. Discussions, comments, blogs and chats, I am just try to figure out everyday and sometimes I can't get where I want to go. Oh yeah and there is the mobile view and desktop. The important thing is that we are hear to listen. You can talk about anything you want. I have done a quite a bit of rambling mostly but I am so happy that I found this site. We all share the absolutely the worst thing a parent can go through. We will listen. Hugs and Peace

Figuring out this site. This is the first time I'm doing this. It is probably good for me because how many times can my friends and family listen to the same thing - "I WANT MY DAUGHTER!" It will be 8 months on the 18th. I'm only 40 years old. If I live until I am 90, I'll spend most of my life without the most magnificent girl I ever met, my beautiful daughter, the love of my life.

My son went through great lengths to hide things from me. My spouse tells me that sons do things to protect their mothers. They don't want us to worry.

I promise you that he knew it was causing him problems. He was just really good at hiding it. You say or hint that you find it hard to believe your daughter-in-law didn't notice anything. I don't know if she did or didn't but when I say problems, it can be anything...financial even. She likely would have known something but maybe didn't relate it to his drinking or to alcoholism.

Me too Jill! I cannot sleep. I will go days without sleeping. I have aged 10 years for sure and have gained around 30 lbs in the last 3 months!

Haven't done it fro years-biting my nails and cuticles until they hurt, can't sleep for more than 2 hour stretches, hyper-sensitive to everything/every situation, can't stop eating junk food(anything with sugar in it), look like I have aged 10 years, haven't put on any type of makeup on whatsoever-don't care, look and feel like crap.

I don't know if my son realized it was causing him problems??? I can't imagine and /or don't understand but his life was going so well at least it looked that way...

Hitting me

My daughter did MAID last Tuesday and I've been holding up okay.But just now the Christmas convoy (trucks all lit up that do an organized drive through our small town) went by and suddenly I just started crying, thinking how my girl won't be around to have these small moments. And not that she would have - she wasn't a huge Christmas or celebration person. So I don't know why I'm sitting here crying about it.Oh this is going to hurt a lot :-(See More
