I have a hard time making through the day. I lost my father when I was 13, my mother when I was 18, my older brother when I was 22. All of these were completely sudden with no warning. I also lost a childen two months after she was born when I was 34. Now my oldest child (who was 33 )died in a car accident. No one else was hurt and he died instantly.
I know from experience that the pain will eventually go away but it is so hard. He had 3 children and a great wife and sometimes that makes me feel better but most of the time it just hurts.
I also have two other sons, 20 and 16. I do my best to not act depressed or sad but it is sooo hard. I'm not sure I can make it through this like I did the other times. I would like to hear from other people that are going through tough times too. I feel like no one around me can understand what I'm going through right now.

Get your strength from your sons, daughter-in-law and grandchildren. They all need you as much as you need them.
lots of hugs!!!!

I can just imagine the enormous pain you're going through. I am so sorry. I,too lost many loved ones but the loss of a child is to me, the deepest hurt because it's so unnatural. I, too lost a son instantly from an undetected heart problem. Before this,years back a daughter died from car accidentt--suddenly. It took me a while to experience the easing of pain.But yes, the years went by ,it did.. What helped me the most is my faith ---my belief in the life hereafter of those who believed and trusted the Lord. I believed both my children are in His place and someday I will see them again. Meanwhile, I dwell on their memories and the joy they gave me. Hugs and kisses to you.

I am so sorry for all your losses. That is really hard. Im 37 now and up until me being 33 i have never lost anyone. But since turning 34 I've lost 3 family members two of who i was close with. I have a small family so for me to lose that many is really hard. My grandma who i was extremely close with just died on Aug. 23 of this year of cancer. Im crying now as we speak cause i miss her so much. I seem to be more sad now then i was then and i think its because i know she's not coming back. My heart goes out to you because you've lost so much especially two children. Keep strong though for you other kids they need you. Take care Sharon
Thank you all for listening. I now know I will make it, it will not be easy but I will be ok.
