I would like to know how you are dealing with your grief of your only child. I feel very cheated not being able to have any grandchildren to spoil or to even plan a wedding. I feel so lonely. He was going to take care of me when I got old. I can't think of a reason to even go on without him. Everyday is just the same. He brought joy and excitement to my life. Sometimes I feel that life with him was just a dream. I feel I have nothing to look forward to in life.

Linda, I wish I could help you I do have other children, But what I do, I keep in my heart the time I did have with him and I have the belief that I will be with him one day. If I didn't believe I would be with him one day I could not go on. The days I feel like I just want to give up I ask myself "What would he want me to do" and their has been so many days I have to ask myself that. Please know you are not alone I know you feel you are but we are here for you.

Oh Linda,
when i read this i just so wanted to give you a big hug.
What can i say .It must be the worst thing possible.
I can say that because i have other children and grandchildren.
However i cannot bring my only son back he was so unique and so loved.
However that love is also spread around with my daughters who are so special each child is unique.
It would take another mother to explain this kind of loss
because they walk your in your shoe's.
I can only imagine.
However we all have our memories and other's who new your child .
Get them to talk to you .
You can always talk to us here at angel families.
We love to hear about our angels.
Hugs to you . i know you are not alone in this situation
Can other Mum's please explain how they cope being only child parent's.??
Because you are the one's that truly understand Linda and her feelings.

Very true Angela.
I don't know how you feel Linda, as I have another son and still sometimes feel cheated that I've only 1 now.
My son's best friend passed over on 15 March age 32yrs from cancer and he is an only child. I am in contact with his mum, but it's very early days for her. When she's feeling upto it and gets his pc sorted out, hopefully I can get her to join Angel Families. She would then be able to give you her thoughts on it.
Until then, try to live in the moment and not look too far forward.
Love and Blessings Denise mum to James Kneale xxx

Angela,
Crystal was my only child. When she left my whole world fell apart. Its like Im no longer a mom. I am very fortunate to have her daughter with us. I dont know if that is selfish of me. Because Brianna has neither her mom or dad. Her dad was killed a year before Crystal. I get so angry at times at Crystal for leaving because she is the one that is suppose to be raising her daughter. Not me!!! I cant be her grandma and spoil her rotten because I have to raise her. Dont get me wrong I love Brianna with all my heart, its just not fair that she has to go on with out her mother or father. Sorry I got out of track. Its just not fair, Crystal was all I had.
