I lost my only child in March 2023, aged 35. Broken is an understatement along with the flashbacks. I understand your pain but in amongst it all I do have good days. I hope you can find a few good days xx

Nettie,
I too lost my only son at the age of 31years in late 2022 and I carry the pain of losing him every single day but I try to draw strength from the fact that he is now at peace and no longer suffering from the problems he faced in life.
It doesn’t change the unimaginable grief that we go through on a daily basis but I personally have to try to keep this at the forefront of my mind to help me cope.
I hope you find some peace and keep on sharing your thoughts and feelings,especially on this forum with people who know exactly what you’re going through and how you’re feeling.
Much love,

I feel like that about my son, resting, and at peace. I think it helps me to think that way although it doesn’t take away the pain.
