My wonderful son

by Kay
(Australia,nsw)

Dean Bradley Burgess
My handsome young son, with a wonderful sense of humour and a big heart was killed on May 11,2010 in a motor vehicle accident. He had only landed his dream job 4 weeks earlier as a plant operator driving heavy machinery, and was on his way to work.

I am so empty and lost, I feel like my heart has been torn out and ripped in half. He was a wonderful son. I adored him so much. The pain is almost too much to comprehend. My life as it was is now over. it will never be the same .....Kay I am thinking of all of you who have lost a loved one .

It has been just over 1 year since you were taken from this earthly plane.I am slowly ...getting through each day some dragging myself around,some just ok.Today I am a mess crying .....no make that sobbing so hard ...I felt a huge build up of emotion,lying just below the surface.Today it has broken through.....I adore you my wonderful son,I miss you more each day...I want to hold you so badly like a mother should .I close my eyes at night and imagine I am holding you.I am so sorry that I am as weak as this...I have really tried so hard.Truth is I feel like it will take a lifetime to heal....The pain is still so very very intense,my heart feels like a gaping wound that is raw and aching.

I know what you are feeling, I've been there since 17 August 2008 when my precious son was killed in a motor bike accident by a drunk pedestrian.

All I have to offer is that although for me it has been almost two years, the pain does not go away, you learn to cope with it. I still cry every day and hope to wake up from this nightmare.
Please know that there are so many mothers that are willing to listen, I am a member of a group Ängel Mums. We meet once a month to share experiences and just talk. We give each other the support we all need. Many have been in Angel Mum's for 15-30 years and still the pain persists. So don't give up, join a group or start your own group... it really does help.

A Mother's Heart
by: Anonymous

Dear Kay,

I too, could not go in public places or hear music; I would be engulfed in tears all over again. It took a few months before I could hear music and then I got to the place where I wanted to hear music that spoke to my heart. It takes effort to face each day, but you keep moving one step at a time.

Time does not erase anything in my opinion - let alone heal all wounds, but perspectives change over time. Our hearts and minds are slow to sort and accept, which I believe is a gift. The shock is overwhelming enough. Keep writing and give me a personal note when you can. I will be pleased to correspond with you.
Blessings, Gracie

I am going mad
by: Kay

I am trying so hard to cope with losing my son 23, but it's not working. I can't even go into a supermarket or around a large group of people i have these feelings come over me, that just engulf me and I have to get away. It has been around 9 weeks now since my sons death. I still am having trouble realising he is never coming back. I just don't want to go on with all this pain. Even when I hear music it's like a knife through my heart.

Lost My Son Also
by: Linda

I am so sorry. I know what you feel. It does not get better, it just gets different. I lost my son on April 3, 2010 in an automobile accident. I am at a loss as to what to say. The pain has not gone away for me, and may never. I miss him so much, like you miss your son. I can only hope that you find some peace in family and friends.
Thinking Of You,

Loss of Son
by: Brenda

I lost my 27 year old son on May 21, 2010. We are not even sure yet what killed him. We are waiting on the Medical Examiners' report.
I know the terrible pain that you are feeling. Sometime I even think I want to go to him and make sure he is alright. I have so much guilt about my son that I could have done more to help him. He was very sick with Diabetes.

I miss my son so much and tonight has been very hard for me. I wish there was something I could tell you that would make it easier but I have not found that answer yet. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
