Hello Robert1,
I’m part of the Online Community team and I can see that you are new to the community - I’d like to thank you for bravely starting this thread and sharing how you are feeling. I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. Most community members have sadly experienced the death of a loved one and so will understand some of what you are going through.
I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support, but I wanted to share a few Sue Ryder resources with you that might be helpful.

Robert I am so sorry for your loss.
I lost my son 2 and half years ago and it was beyond tough.
Being a parent it’s just wrong they should go before you. A part of me died that day.
I did lots of therapy, lots of crying. If you have other family please let them in. I just existed. My husband was amazing I was absent from the marriage for a long time.
This group really helped.
Also Julia samuels has books and an app. Talk remember memories be kind to yourself try to go for a walk but above all be gentle with yourself.
Love never dies Robert.
Only do what you can manage
It’s a long road ahead you will become stronger and learn to live with the loss.
I still cry I love my Ollie always will.
Sebum you love and white light
Bella
