- About my Loss:
- I lost my precious grandson Josh 5 days after he turned 20 years old on Oct. 30 2012 due to a horrible car accident. He lived with his Papa and i his whole 20 years. His mom, my daughter was in and out of their lives up to when she had her 4 year old daughter, she moved back home when Savannah was born. We are all devastated and can't believe this has happened to our family. The first year was so hard, but i think going on into this 2nd year without him seems much, much harder! The first year i think we were just in a fog and numb....now it feels real. Josh is never coming home. I have cried everyday since he died. On top of it all we have to deal with a law suit against us. My husband is besides himself...the man that was involved in the accident with my grandson is suing us personally.(the truck that our grandson was driving to work was registered in my husbands name)The man had some surgery's on his foot and ankle...he won't except the insurance policy which is $100,000.00 limit. He wants more, we don't have it, point blank! We own a home and that's it..my husband is retired from working as a bricklayer for 40 years and just recently took a driving job for the elderly to bring back and forth to their appointments so we can have health insurance. Now with this law suit we could lose our home home..haven't we lost enough???!!!!

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
