When Things Go Wrong in Our Loved One's Lives
Lost my son 4 weeks ago...still can't believe he is gone...at times still wonder, how did this happen?...I have a faith in my Lord Jesus and I know that my God is there for me and my loved ones, and I also know that my son Robbie (41 years old) is with my God in Heaven and is fine, but it is hard down here though and the grief that comes over you, and I so wished that I could be with him at this moment.
I don't understand why things happened as they did in the end but I do know who has the answer and one day so will I. He was a gentle old soul. He left behind a daughter (17) and 2 sons that are (4 & 6). So much suffering in their young lives and his wife's life now. My grandaughter is in the hospital because she wanted to harm herself and she is still there getting the help she needs and I am thankful that she is receiving it but there is so much that is having to be dealt with in this kind of loss.
He died in his sleep. He was an amazing son who came home every night to his family. He was a good father but after 40 years of living he took this last year and started taking drugs (cocaine and ozycon). It still baffles my mind and it is so heartbreaking. We are suffering deeply from how his life ended. After all these years of him being here for all of us and living a healthy life; loving his family deeply; but then this.. I know from what I heard about in his last 2 weeks that God was calling him and he turned to God and now God has taken him home and I know he has peace and because of this, I have been given peace too of knowing where he is....but try to understand what happened to my son....It is heartbreaking loss....

I really have no words to express my condolences to you! I lost my sister July 24, 2011 because of a senseless, selfish act from another. I'm still not completely dealing with it and maybe it's not the same situation, but should you ever need to vent.. please feel free to message me. Trust in God. We may never understand why things happen the way they do, but rest assured that he's in Heaven, now. God called him home and right now he's smiling down on you. I'm sure he hurts to see you all in pain, but in time.. they say it does get easier. I'm going to pray for you and for your family. Be strong. I'm sure your son would want you all to be so happy and not upset all the time. Remember the good times with him... it seems to help me. :)

I am so sorry for your loss, I lost my daughter Sarah June 13th of this year. I myself am trying to figure out why she left so soon. I miss her so much she was 27 did not have any children. This is not about me though, I just simply wanted to say that if you ever need someone to vent to that I am here. I will listen to anything and everything that you have to say.

did you notice in the picture you posted of Rob 2 weeks before he passed that the ray of sun ends in him? Like there is Gods light going inside of him

I am so very sorry for your loss. I am so glad that you have such a strong faith in God, that will help you through this heartbreaking loss. I am sorry to hear about your granddaughter having such a hard time. I remember when my dad died I was 18, and turned to alcohol and drugs to help ease the pain. Let her know that you are always there for her, to share her pain and grief, that God will help you through this together. You and your family are in my prayers. Losing a child is not the kind of club that you want to belong to but it does seem to help when you can share your pain, with someone who has been there.

My Fathers Loss
Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child
I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.
