My name is Kathy and I am new to this group. I loss my only son on August 18,2008, he was 19 years old and he had so much to live for. I miss him more and more each day. The pain of losing him is not getting any better, it is getting worse as time goes on. I need to know if it will ever get better? How does a parent get through this pain and live life again? I really don't see myself ever being happy again. I know that I must live for my daughter because she really needs me right now. But HOW? It hurts so bad and I need to talk with someone who really understands this pain. I need help!

I understand what you are going through my friend and I am not going to lie the pain does get worse but in the end it does get better. You must just take one day at a time and deal with each day as it comes. I lost my husband, grandson and several members in my family along with several close friends within a three month spand. Please hang in their my friend and remember we are here to help you through this grieving process. My name is Betty and founder of this site.

Oh Hon, it is much too soon to expect so much of yourself. You need to take the time to grieve and get your pain out!
I lost my son to suicide in July of '07, my only child, the Light of my Life, and I still grieve for him every day.
I cry a lot still because we were so very close, his being an only child and all! I am so sorry for your loss, too, as there is something very special between a mother and a son.
I pray for comfort and peace for you and in the meantime, you came to the right place--we are all in this together,...you are NOT alone! Hugs, Judy

Hi Kathy. Like you I am new to this group and also looking for help in how to deal with the lose of my son. My son AJ passed away on 10-01-08 and it seems to be getting harder for me also. I don't know how to move forward. I also have a daughter and I don't even know how to help her. We were planning her wedding next April when this tragedy occured. AJ was to be the best man. She has postponed her wedding for now because it just won't be the same without her brother. I'm sorry I don't have any answers for you but I just wanted to let you know that I do feel and understand your pain and I am so sorry for your lose.

There is not greater pain or grieve than losing a child. We expect one day to lose our parents but there is something God put in us to recover and go on living. But I do not think there is the expectation of losing your child. zmy son was 18 when he died and a wise old man told me that it will never get better but it will get easie, I feel like I am no longer allowed to enjoy life anymore. It should have been me that died.But in a way I did die on November19, 1992. Oh, I exist but there is nothing but God and my family that I care about. This life is horrible even after 18 years since he died. His mother and older sister went though all the stages of recovery and they are now going on with their lives, But for some reason I can not,

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
