Have you ever experience losing your own child? How did it happen? How painful was it? Did you have someone during the experience?

Yes, we lost our only child/son last Valentines. A very memorable day indeed. We believe he is now in a better place and much better than ours right now. We really felt we lost everything after the incident. We realized that there's still something left for us to do here in this world and our child had already done his mission, that's why we are still here. We love our child so much, and it really pains our heart knowing that he is gone. We may have picked up some pieces now but will forever left a hole in our hearts. He was such a cheerful boy just a month will turn 6 years old:(.

Losing my son in March of 2008, was the most painful experience I have ever had. He was my only son. He was 28 years old, coming from work and was hit by a van. The accident was on Dec,27, 2007. He held on until March 13, 2008. I have still not found the person who done this. He was a good kid. Never gave me any problems. His girlfriend says she still has nightmares, I know I do. Sometime I find my self calling him like he is still living. I am still going thru change, but I do a lot of praying. I hope no one have to go thru this.

Thats really sad, molding them for more than 28 years, wow thats really great just how great you really were. I just dunno how much pain you are going right after the accident and how much more you have gone through after his passing. Hope you and his girlfriend keeps on spending some time together, maybe to ease some pain from your child and somehow lessen the burden of pain as we all know it will never go away and he will always be there no matter what we do and he will never be forgotten :( as it is for me.

I lost one of my twin boys who was 11 in 2007. He was diagnosed with Leukemia and 4 weeks later when he was on his last round of chemotherapy he took a turn for the worse on August 19,2007 he went into a coma and passed away the next day. The pain is so tremendous that it feels like someone is tearing your heart right out of your chest. Its such a horrible feeling to know that the little person you gave birth to and protected all these years is now gone and there was nothing you could do to save them. Having to chose a coffin, service music, a church, a burial site is a heavy burden to deal with when your not even in your right state of mind. Your days are dark before, during and after this ordeal, some days I felt like just laying in bed. Its now been almost 3 years and my son has missed out on his middle school years and the rest of his beautiful life. There is not a day that passes that I don't think about him and cry. I don't think life can hand me anything worse than what it already has dealt me. My world was crushed on August 20,2007 and all I can do is ask that God give me strength to get through another day.
