Robert Husak

My brother was killed by a runaway truck 2 months ago, he was sitting on a park bench and the truck came, hitting and pinning him against playground equipment that was near the bench. He was brought to a hostpital by Flight For Life, after being pinned for about 20 minutes. He had many broken parts, a collapsed lung, and almost none of his brain was working. He was in a coma. He stayed in the coma for 6 days- the day of the accident was may 20th and he died the 26th after all of my family decided to take him off of life support. The day he was hit, I was thinking of going over to where he lived (with his and my best friend) just to say hi, but i decided not to. I could've seen him one last time-- But i didn't. I don't remember when the last time was that i told him that i loved him or that i gave him a hug- I don't know if he knew how much he meant to me. We were very close- i dont know still what it's like to be without him. I keep thinking it was all just a dream, and that he's alright, and that he'll come back... but then i realize he never will.... how can i get better?

Kelly,

Hello, while you are welcome and hopefully will find support and comfort here, we are sorry you have to be here at all.  Please accept my condolences on the loss of your brother, Robert.  It is probably just now that you are emerging from your initial shock.  For me, it was all a fog for the first 4 months, and even now, I feel like I am just beginning to be functional after my father's murder 3 1/2 years ago.  I only found this site a couple of months ago but it has helped me tremendously.  Reading my feelings from other people's stories, helps me know I am not alone or crazy.  I don't know why these things happen the way they do, but I know I will give these deaths some meaning by being even more purpose driven and kind.  Just keeping on and willing to live is a victory many days.  ALL your feelings are welcome here, so if it's a rough day, just post it and at least one of us will jump in with a hand to hold.(((((HUGS)))))  Ruth

My mom died 4 months ago

My mom had pulmonary fibrosis. She was sick for a few years. It was funny how when my grandmother smoked, my mom would always say-I’m gonna die from second hand smoke. My mom never smoked. She died from lung disease. Ironic.I was fine at the funeral. Planning. Talking to everyone. I thought u handled it great. Now 4 months later, I’m a mess. Some days I’m perfectly fine, but others I can’t walk down the street without crying. I keep thinking that I haven’t talked to her in a while & I…See More
