Five days before her high school graduation, my daughter got run over by a hit and run druggie. She was in a coma for two days then didn't make it. I've been numb ever since.
49 and so far nothing drastically life changing. Had a couple of doozies that come to mind. I went to my mom's house and found her half conscious on the floor. The BIL was on life support and watching the heart beat monitor slowly count down to zero when they pulled the plug. I'll never forget both of those moments.
After reading what some of you had shared, I feel I got off easy.
I wish peace to all of you.
Definitely share that opinion
We were not destroyed as family by our experience
At 70 though I am more worried about my son and daughter and their family/future than almost any other time in their lives--
And after having a chil service cancer I find that an awful truth...
The sudden death of my childhood friend and wife of 37 years. She was the picture of health and suffered a blood clot in her brain. 9 years have passed and it is still on my mind every day. It dramatically changed my perspective on life....don't take a single day for granted and if there is something you want to do, get to it!
I haven't seen much in my [roughly] two-and-a-half decades.
The first woman I asked out committed a crime [without my knowledge] [on one of our first dates] and made me the fall guy. She confessed to it fortunately, and got away with a slap on the wrist. She told me she had an addiction, and I spent the next few years trying to help her get better, stay out of trouble, and not kill herself. One day she attacked me, and I just drove away. The world has been a bit more monochrome since then.
Haven't really tried with women since. I'm bogged down in intense studies, so instead of moving on and finding someone else, I'm often stuck in my room and left to ruminate on it.
I'm just really tired. I want a breathe of fresh air. I like these forums because I can talk about cities. I want to move to a city and bask in its life and energy. I'm so incredibly sick of these soulless suburbs. I walk at night to get away from my thoughts, and I just see single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after single family house after. It's numbing.
Sorry for the off topic rant. I can't really say this to anyone I know in real life. I just have to type it.
I was married for 26 years, he changed. In the end I had to get the restraining order and file for divorce. Was married in 1993 until 2014 and I had an astrologer tell me my marriage was going to implode. It took me a few years before that point to leave him. I think it was for the best. I never felt like I wanted to reproduce with him so I made sure he got the snip.
The death of a child, passed away on 12/22 with no warning buried her on 12/24. Nothing can ever prepare you for the death of a child. Our family will never be the same.
