Hi. I am new. I lost my adult son, Casey about eight months ago. His death was accidental and was and still is a tremendous shock to my wife and me. I feel my life has been turned upside down. I feel like a car going down the street with no steering wheel. I joined this group to perhaps find other people who feel and see the world as I do now. I guess I feel alone and want to finds others who understand.

You came to the right place, Neil. There is also a group, both online and in person, called The Compassionate Friends, for parents who have lost a child of any age. I also lost my adult son suddenly. He was on a cruise with his wife and died of an apparent heart attack. I'm sorry we all have reason to be in this group, but welcome.

Neil , I know how you feel. This shouldnt ever happen to anyone, but please take comfort in the fact that you are understood. My prayers and love to you.

I am sorry for your loss. I totally understand. I loss my son a month ago. I have to talk and there's no one that is comfortable talking to me. No one wants to see me cry. So, I join groups and type. I got a counselor- free, because I can't work. I am not functional and lost a job yesterday. One suggestion to me was to drink water and walk everyday- I have a hard time leaving my house. I did it yesterday and only walked one block but it's a start. Plus, my prayers are to find a way to change the seconds of everyday that I think of my son into happy memories that give me comfort instead of making me cry. I don't ever want to let go of him and I will never forget him. I pray for the same for you.

Neil, I am sorry for the loss of your son. I hope you find this group helpful. Many of us have also lost adult children. It's a painful, incomprehensible thing to have happened.

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
