MY son died

Don't know how to say it, but need to put it down. My beautiful son was found dead last night. I don't know what to do. He is 22 but still my baby, how do you begin to process something like this?

Cannot begin to imagine how you must feel. Just wanted to add my love and sympathy to that of everyone else.

I have a 20 year old son - they are absolutely still our babies.

So very sorry to hear about your son. I can imagine how you are feeling right now because of personal experience. It is a physical and emotional pain that is unlike any other. A dear friend once wrote to me. I told her I had no idea how to carry on. Her words were very wise and she ended the letter with 'you have to carry on, you have other children, you have to 'put one foot in front of the other and dont forget to breathe.' Wish I could find the right words that would help but I sadly know those words dont exist. xxx

Just wanted to show you a MN thread that, when you are ready, may help out.
