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.

Lost my daughter to an impaired driver

I lost my only child in 2010.  The pain feels as bad today as it did then.  It's as if no time has passed.  It may as well have been yesterday.  I try not to show my pain but I am such a radically different person now.  I feel no joy.  I hardly remember what joy feels like.  How do I get through the rest of my life?   He took everything that day.

    I am sorry for the loss of your child. I agree that time seems irrelevant now. Just pain, every day, all day.
