My husband passed away in June of last year and my only child, my son Justin passed away one month ago. I’ve learned in the most tragic ways that we have very little control over our lives. I’ll be starting a new blog to share my thoughts as a therapeutic tool.

Came across your post and I was just so taken back with the tragedies you’ve had to deal with back to back. I was reading an article not to long ago that talked about comforting others that have lost a loved one, still after the initial passing. So I hope I am not too late in sharing my condolences. Death causes a indescribable pain, especially when it’s unexpected. But one thing that does give me comfort is that God promises to not only undo the effects of sin and death but actually do away with death forever, and also reunite us with our loved ones. Revelation 21:4 ; Isaiah 25:8. So though it may not be right now, but I will be able to hug my loved ones again very soon. May this be of encouragement to you, and I hope that your on a progressive path of healing ❤️

From experience I know that grief is the cruelest measure of love. I also know that you can heal. I did and, you will.
Many wishes.

I can’t imagine the anguish of losing two people so close to you in such a brief period of time. I still grieve the loss of my father, but he was old and sick, so his death was not entirely unexpected. But I imagine the loss of your son is a pain you’ve never felt before, Sherry, and would never wish upon anyone.
I can’t say anything to make you feel “better” because that would be pointless and almost offensive. I can only wish you the best, as you move forward. Please keep us updated.
