I can confirm this. It has been 15 years since my son died.
On a day-to-day basis there is a new normality in my life and the emotion surrounding his loss is locked tightly in a box. There is plenty of happiness and plenty of new happiness in my life.
However, at all of the happiest moments in my life the box is opened and I am reminded that we are missing the one thing that would make this moment complete.
This is why old people cry at weddings.
- peteretep 11y agoThanks for sharing. I find that hard to imagine, but I've not been through it (or anything similar), so I would have no idea.
- chris_wot 11y agoI cannot even imagine your pain. I have two small children, and if either of them were to die, I just don't know what I'd do. Thank you for sharing this most terrible of experiences. I genuinely appreciate it.
- __abc 11y agoThis is my greatest fear. This is the one thing that can paralyze me late at night when my mind wanders and wonders about what can go wrong in regards to my two daughters.
- aagha 11y agoHaving two children of my own, the thought of losing them and living the live you do fills me with a deep sadness I can't even begin to fathom. I'm sorry for your loss.
