Hi everyone!my name is Diane,and this is my first time here. Dont exactly know how this works,but my life has been turned upside downsince my sons unexpecly passed away in jan of this year. He was all the family I had left,and I am struggling to find a reason to go on myself.I have never been alone and this is so overwhelming I dont know how to move forward. I cant sleep,I cant eat, I have nightmares. I just dont know how to cope with such emptiness .Its like a part of my heart and soul have been ripped out of me,and I dont know how to start to heal.The tears are just flowing down my cheeks writing this. I thought if I could chat with others who feel like II do it may help me. Friends and co workers can only take so much before they run away from you. So, I thought if I could meet others who have or are walking in the same shoes I am it would help the healing for us all. My son Ed was 45 years old when he went to take a nap,and he never awoke from. I nevergot to say good bye,I love you,nothing. Drs think he had aa heart attack of some degree,never heard a sound.I am thankful the Lord took him quickly and peacefully,but It doesnt help me on this journey back to life as they call it. I do not feel it is life. Life should be full of happiness,laughter,and fun filled memories. mine is full of pain,saddness, and being alone.So many unanswered questions on how to cope, how to live with this loss. thank you all for reading this and listening to this old lady ramble on. But,I do hope it will help me, you all of us heal,and find some peace for ourself, the survivior. :)

Its not rambling on its speaking from your pain and wanting to find answers. I dont know the hearbreak of losing a son but i do know the pain of losing a loved one. And the feeling of loniness and despair. I guess we could call it life lessons or a part of life but it doesnt take away the feelings of wanting them back with us. From my experience holding on tight to the Lord is the best medicine he will guide you through what will be a diffuclt time be patient and have faith he will heal you.
If you would like someone to chat with or email with you may always reach me through the inbox and i will defiently response its always good to have someone to talk too. Take care.

My mother

I can't trust myself to go anywhere because I cry when I wake up, before I go to sleep, all day. So I feel trapped in the house all day and since I lost both my son's, I take turns, so I can't get a break. I wasn't even able to grieve my mother yet, she passed almost 3 years ago because I am consumed with my son's for which I also feel guilty about. I have death on the brain all day. How does one get over all that pain, I just don't know!!!

I do not really know what to say. I know you are going through hell right now but remember time is a healer. All I can say right now is take comfort in knowing that everyone is here for you and so am I.
