@Athome2 . First of all I would just like to say I am so sorry for your loss!I am not a grieving mother, so I can't say I know how you feel, but I am a mother. Your pain must be almost unbearable and I am sorry and I will pray for you.....Take good care and get through this one step at a time, and one day at a time, and if you are a religious person pray!


I was not able to "heart" your post Candlequeen but I could not have said it better. I am so very sorry.

Dear @Athome2 -

I am so sad that you lost your precious son, who has always mattered!

Though we may wonder, what could I have done, sometimes I think there are so many esp. of our young men who just cannot live in this world any longer.I almost lost my son from all the same reasons and wish that all the mothers still had theirs. And a young stepson just your son's age.

When my young nephew died, his mother said she felt God had a bigger job for him in heaven.

I thought that was pretty amazing that she was encouraging all of us.

You sound like the most wonderful mom and I'm sure your beautiful son knew that. Love is eternal, remember that always, ok? It cannot be taken by no longer being here physically on this earth. You will feel his love and he yours forever.Believe🕊

And may He hold you in the palm of His handHeart

@Athome2   Sending you the biggest warmest hug.  I lost a step son 7 years ago.  He was only 30.  It often times is still not a reality.  He brought joy to so many and had so much potential.  We miss that big heart and warm smile. 

Hugs....

I have no children, but I wanted to express my deepest sympathy at the loss of your dear son.  

 

No words for such an unbearable loss.

 

All I can offer is understanding and prayers for you and your family.

My nephew is 21 and has aspbergers and also has severe issues and challenges.  But, it is a very hard and constant struggle for the entire family.  I will keep you and your family in my prayers.  May he Rest In Peace.

I am so sorry, @Athome2 , on the death of your precious son.

I am not a mother myself, however, I have experienced profound grief and loss.

 

Draw heavily on your faith, other family, and friends during this time. Include your friends here on the Q's forum. If it's in your beliefs, know that some day you will be reunited with your dear son, no longer ill, meeting you with open arms. Heart
