The day I loss my son.

On August 5th 2014 my 24 year old son was murdered shot and killed. Two (2) days after his first born son and my first grandson was born.  I still can't wrap my head around this. 
It has been eight (8) months and each day is a struggle to even get out of bed.  I am starting this journsl in hopes that it will allow me to write my feelings down and try to begin healing.  I feel so hopeless most days and don't know how to shake it.

I too am so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. You have come to the right place. This is a place of comfort for moms who have lost a child. Other moms here understand the loss of a child and I am so sorry you are on this path with us. I hope you will find help and hope here as I have found. I too, would like to extend my hand in friendship.
Tight hugs,

Your loss is great and still so very fresh and raw. You have found a place where there are no answers, yet it is safe to express your feelings as they matter because you do.

Please try to be as gentle with yourself as you can be and know that you are not alone on this very lonely path. I do not know how you feel, yet I know how it has felt for me these past 6+ years and truly, the companioning and deep understanding of others who walk a similar path has been my lifeline.

Do something that is gentle and kind for yourself today,

Heartfelt hugs of care and understanding,
Joanie
