My beautiful son - part 2

My last thread is full so here goes another one.

This is a place where I write about my son - Will - who died aged 18 after enduring the horrors of brain cancer. He was kind, gentle, funny, quirky, intelligent, an inspiration. He endured for two years and 3 months of treatment with dignity, humour, positivity and strength.

Thank you for all your lovely words and for thinking of me/Will over his anniversary.

I survived the huge wave that hit, thought it would swamp me but I came out spluttering - thank you for those words Serendipity.

So here we go into the third year without you my darling boy. I'll try to swim in the sea and not be quite so swamped. No promises though.

I love you. I miss you. Every day. Every minute.

Sending you love Minmooch. You were so kind to me when my son died. I think of you and Will and your younger son so often. It is so hard for the siblings. My dc miss their big brother so much. It is hard. Flowers

Hello @minmooch I have recently come across your posts. I’m so sorry about your son.

My son died suddenly a few weeks ago, aged 19. I am so very lost without him. I am not sure I want to, but I have to endure this pain for his sibling.

There are really no words to describe the pain of losing a child.
