We lost my mother in law to cancer in February, it was expected and she lasted many years more then was given. Which were thankful for, but still feeling her lose.
Last week we lost my sons best friend to sucide, someone we have known for 10 years he was only just an adult and still trying to come to terms with the how he did it, and that he is gone. He was a lovely lad and spent many nights in our home. All my children are grieving and im trying to carry on as normal whilst allowing them to talk about him. But my son (asd) just wont, he says hes fine, and carrying on as if nothing has happened. My daughter has attempted suicide herself, and im now terrified she will attempt again given she has a "new" "definate" way of doing it. She isnt in that place right now but it could come back. Im only thankful that we live to far away for that option to be readily available.
I havent posted for advice just somewhere to write it down.
