There are no words adequate enough to express how sorry I am that this happened to you and your family. I am holding you all close in my heart.
I am posting a link to a blog of a mother whose son died a year and a half ago during a freak rainstorm:

I hope you find some solace in it.post #29 of 5712/25/12 at 7:48amYou are in my thoughts.
post #30 of 5712/25/12 at 7:52amMy sincere condolences. Memory Eternal.

I am so sorry for your tragic loss. Your story is heartbreaking and your blog brought me to tears. I pray you find the strength you need to hold your family together and raise your other children. This is every mothers worst nightmare and I am so saddened by your loss :(
post #32 of 5712/31/12 at 12:11pmI just wanted to send you my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry for your loss. You sound so strong, while you may not feel it now, I can sense it in your post and blog. I wish you peace and healing in 2013 and beyond.

I can't imagine losing a child like this, and I can't imagine being the one responsible for a child being lost this way. Such a tragedy for everyone. It just makes no sense.
Hang in there, momma.

I saw your title on the main page and my heart fell for you. I'm sorry for the agony that you are enduring. Thinking supportive thoughts for you.
post #39 of 571/9/13 at 7:03pmMy daughter Rosalie died exactly one year before your son, in her sleep, three weeks before her 2nd birthday. She was healthy and happy. The medical examiner found nothing wrong with her. It is ice-cold agony. You go on by going on. You keep breathing, though you don't know why. We're animals, hardwired to survive. Sometimes this feels like a curse. Someone upthread advised that you accept all help offered. I agree. And I'd add, don't force yourself to do anything. If you need to sit in the dirt and scream and not change your clothes for a week, do it. Let other people take care of life for a while. Everyone grieves in their own way, so whatever your way is, do it and don't allow anyone to tell you you should be doing something different. Losing a child throws you out of the culture in many ways. It puts you in a place no one ever wants to understand. Let your loved ones abide with you, and do what you need to do. As unbelievable as it sounds right now, you will find a way forward, but you don't need to think that far ahead yet. I wish you and your family weren't going through this. I wish you whatever peace you can find.post #40 of 571/9/13 at 8:34pm- Babina's Mommy
