My only son died after an auto accident in 1998, when he was 26. My saving group was the Compassionate Friends. World-wide, free, non-denominational. We talked about our children. We spoke their names, we supported each other, we cried together. Grief is something that will always be with me. It's there, but I have learned to live with it. I owe my son to live with it & experience whatever I can because he cannot. People would say-" how can you live with his loss, I couldn't" What choice did I have-if given a choice, it would have been me, instead of him. Another helpful book was -"When Bad Things Happen To Good People." Thank you for sharing your experiences & advice.
