I feel so sad
Hi Moms, Im new to this site. I have been looking for a site that I could talk to others that understand what Im going through.My beautiful son was murdered on Dec 11, 2005, but it seems like it just happened yesterday. My son was 21 yrs old and had just become a father. His baby boy was 2 months old, when gang members shot him just to make a name for themselves,to me that name they made for themselves is cowards.The sadness that feels me is so unbareable at times, I just dont know what to do. Please if anyone can just help me, understand how to cope with such sadness and grief or just to share your thoughts with me I would appreciate it. God Bless all you Moms |

Re: I feel so sad
Welcome, here you will find support that you won't find anywhere else. I am sorry that you had to find us though. My son Gerrick was shot and murdered in our own home 50 months and 14 days ago and it feels just like it was yesterday, I love and miss him more and more everyday. I am so very sad all the time, depressed, anxious, stressed and have developed many medical conditions. Take it one minute at a time, and read down the posts to, "No you are not going crazy, you are in grief". You are right about the pain being unbearable, it is. |

Re: I feel so sad
Hi Alice, I am so sorry to hear about your son. But, I am glad that you found this site. You will find that you are not alone on this journey of grief. There are so many wonderful people on this site to give you words of comfort and encouragement.I get on this site every morning and just reading what the mothers posted gives me strength and encouragment to make it thru the day.It will be one year on May 6, that my oldest and only son was murdered.He was 34 years old. He also was murdered by a gang member who claims he did not know my son. My son, Gene was my rock, my strength, my life. My life stopped that day. I miss him so much.I have been so depressed these past couple of days knowing that it is going to be a year that I have not seen, heard or touched my baby. I would like to share this poem with you by Susan Matson. I hope it brings some comfort to you and know that my heart and prayers are with you always. Take care and God Bless You. Murder Grief Murder grief leaves scars on those left to survive. It wraps the stongest spirits and twists so many lives. Murder grief is harder than other grief to bear, because it's done by evil and the devil doesn't care. Murder grief continues to tear apart your heart. It stomps upon your feelings and breaks your life apart. Murder grief makes friendships harder to keep alive. People now avoid you as you struggle to survive. Murder grief isn't pretty...it's black, cold and gray. As it hovers overhead it refuses to go away. Murder grief engulfs you as it drowns you in it's pain. It snares the strongest persons into feeling they're insane. Murder grief is destructive as it descends upon your mind. You must confront it boldly and to yourself be kind. Murder grief is controllable if your faith in God stays strong. He'll give you strength to face it and the courage to live on... |

Re: I feel so sad
Alice, I am so sorry that you too are walking this very hard road of grief. My 28 year old daughter Melissa was murdered on Dec 13, 2005, just two days after your son. She was murdered by a married couple who were suppose to be her friends. They murdered her and then put her in the trunk of their car, drove it to the desert and burned the car. She was found by a trucker going down the road very early in the morning. She was suppose to arrive at Newark Airport on Dec 14 to spend Christmas with her family. I went to pick her up at the airport but she never got on the plane. At that same time was when they found her body in the desert of Las Vegas. I pray that God will give you strength and comfort each and every day. Please feel free to email me at anytime. This is a tough road we all are on but with God's help we'll make it one minute, one hour and one day at a time. As it says in Psalms, "God is close to the brokenhearted". He knows how much we hurt and wants to keep us safe in his arms. I pray you hold tight to the memories you have of your son. I remember when it hurt too much to think about my memories but now I think of them all and can smile and laugh at the cute things Melissa used to do. One day we will all be with our sons and daughters again and that will be glorious. Hold tight to the hand of Jesus. God Bless you. Hugs, Maura (Melissa's Mom) |

Re: I feel so sad
Alice,Although we are glad you have found us one thing we never want is to see another mother need to be here.I have been visiting this site a few months and I just hate to think of what it would be like to not have the support I get here. Lord knows I don't get any anywhere else.My 17 yr old son Andre' was murdered 10/06/07.I don't know who killed my baby or why.This pain can only be understood by the mothers here no one else could understand what we go through.I pray you will find the same comfort and support I have found here.GOD be with you. |
