Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a Child

Our beautiful 25 year old son completed his Master's Degree, was crazy in love with a girl for 7 years, who eloped with another guy the night before my son hung himself. There is an overwhelming crevass in my chest that used to hold my love for my first born. I adored him, and had no idea he was so very miserable. How do we carry on? My husband found our son at the conclusion of his last day of work in a place he'd worked 23 yrs. It should have been an exciting, but now life's a void. Help?

Daughter is finally starting to talk to me. She worries me, such a good girl, so kind and loving. Husband talks only a little, works most of the time at the new business---very overwhelming, but satisfying for him. He's exhausted.
