My 42 yo husband and 16 yo son were killed together in a car accident on August 8, 2013. There are a lot of days when I still can't believe this has happened...
Dear Sigrid. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband and son. I lost my only child, Daniel on Dec. 1, 2012 He was 17. I cannot imagine losing both him and my husband, I am so glad you have your daughter but I know you must be devastated. It takes a long time to sort through everything and is always ongoing. Like the tide, the pain ebbs and flows. It is so painful and I just wanted to extend my friendship to you and hope you can find support and comfort here in knowing that we understand.
Sigrid, I'm so sorry for your loss. You just reached an anniversary, which just intensifies the pain. I can't imagine losing both your husband and son. My prayers are with you. You will find this to be a compassionate group of people who understand your pain.
thank you for the comment i'm sorry for your loss i way i feel is i want to drink myself to death but that will not help things i know they are in heaven but at the same time i blame myself for their deaths the one thing i can't do is forgive myself
Hi Charles, it's presumptuous of me to tell someone to forgive, even when it is themselves. I appreciate your patience. You're right, drinking won't solve anything. It will only magnify the problems. It smothers grief, when we need to be honest about what's going on. Best wishes to you.
You are so welcome! :-). Zach was such an amazing guy. The funny one is what gets me through when I feel like I can't take it anymore. Lots of hugs to you too!

And I'm sure that is the way he wants to be remembered and celebrated.
