I just lost my husband, best friend, guide and companion 12 days ago. We were together for 37 years and we were so close. We were one unit ! I have a overwhelming feeling that my life makes absolutely no sense, my existence is absurde and I don't belong in a world without him in it. The word sad doesn't even describe what i'm feeling, I just want to die asap ! But I know though that I will never suffer from a loss so much ever again and I will never allow myself to get attached to anyone ever again. When I recover from this I will be free because the worst has already happened.

Same feeling I have about the loss of my mom. Isn’t it empowering though to be able to endure and know that the worst has already happened and we couldn’t get hurt any less.

I lost my husband and have been grieving terribly. Shockingly, everyone scattered! Sometime later I asked a 'friend' if she would get together with me. . . I needed to talk. She said emphatically 'NO! I ONLY WANT TO BE AROUND HAPPY PEOPLE!' . . . I never saw her again. That was not the only instance of such rejection. There are no words.

That is shocking , in your time of need! Clearly not real friends 😢

My father and i were estranged, i found out yesterday he is in the late stages of brain cancer. Im devestated. I have written him a letter and im going to see him this week. I have no idea what to do with myself. All I know, right now, I need to be with him. I need him to know I have forgiven him and have nothing but love and gratitude left for him. I am a woman because he was a father. We cant reverse things. We can only do what we want or need to today. Thats all I know. I feel he taught me that. It hurts like hell. I dont know when things will get easier and I dont exactly know how. But this talk was deeply helpful. Thank you so much for your work, your time, and your compassion. Its immensly appreciated.

Very helpful! I lost my husband suddenly 4 months ago. Thought he was healthy and he passed quickly. So shock, fear, PTSD. Working on “letting go” is a journey. Lots of people “shy” away from grief.

Yes. My precious husband of 17 years just died suddenly from a massive heart attack. Tomorrow will be one month since he left. The most terrible grief one can imagine without actually dying from it. I understand I hope your recovering and not suffering so much. Jesus said there will be a resurrection of the dead back to earth. John 5:28-29

I agree, there is a time & place for a stiff upper lip. To get thru the task-oriented things, you can’t just fall apart at every turn. Find the people you trust, yes.

Some calm British people speaking sense. What a treat 😊👍🇬🇧

I wish I knew this was available but has helped I’ve lost my mom my best friend and a man I thought would be a big part of my life They are still alive

Jesus loves you so much! Please allow me to share my best friend's story with you. This family knows where to turn in times of grief. Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a tract form as well, so if you or your church are interested in having them to pass out, please go to libertyfaith.net and you will find the contact info there. God bless! Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzread.info/dash/bejne/d5yjxMWKipm3kps.html

A very special session full of wisdom and compassion. Thank you

I hadn't really put myself in the position of someone who'd suddenly lost a relative through COVID, or anything else really, but now that my youngest daughter who's at uni, has to self isolate due to her housemates testing positive for it, and knowing she has asthma and has had a cough for weeks, this video has bought the reality of what it must be like to me, and got me tearful. She sounded buoyant yesterday thankfully, so, I'm hoping I don't have to experience it in this instance. Thank you for your advice

I lost my mum in Apr 19 in the Maldives suddenly but not from COVID and didn’t get the chance to say goodbye as I live in Australia. I had planned to go spend 3 months with her in Aug 19 but was unable to go and still haven’t to bring closure. Been working on acceptance. I planted two rose bushes in her name, one on when she passed away and one the following year Mothers Day n I continue to do art n embroidery as a way of healing from the immense loss. May everyone find some form of therapy to help through different grief experiences that we are all collectively experiencing due to uncertainty of life itself. Much love to all here. Really awesome conversation here n absolutely love the knowledge my Julia

wish i could move on and not dwell but it's simply impossible to ignore the pain/sadness. lost my twin brother to suicide in april 2023, i had struggles before it happened but now, as i'm sure u can understand, i'm completely broken. nothing makes sense, hopeless feeling, despair, anxiety & depression, feeling like in a trap and constantly punished, i go through the motions of eating and trying to join in with family but i feel so alone, weak, scared. no enjoyment in things, overwhelming love for my wife, children, family etc but it's almost like the love is hurting me and making me fearful of everything. i don't know how people get through this, i feel like i'm getting nowhere or getting worse. desperate, terrified, no peace. i try to rest but feel terrible, try to join in but feel terrible, look back and feel regretful, look forward and feel terrified, try to be present but feel broken. sorry to talk like this but i'm having days when it's all too much for me. bad sleep and always dreading the next day

Love the bookshelf arranged by color on the spine.

Living loss is a real thing. Nearly 40 years ago I felt such loss when my 1st marriage ended but people would say things like well no one died, you’ll find someone else etc. True no one had died but something in me had. In the years since both parents & someone else very close to me have died & the range of emotions were very similar to what I felt in divorce, though deeper & longer lasting. I was brought up to just get on with it, that reaching out for help was almost a weakness & that people have their own issues to deal with so why would they want to have my problems on top of their own. I guess I’ve become a bit of a dandelion.

I'm so sorry for your enduring your losses unsupported. I want you to know even 1 year after this post, and the many years of the losses, I pray you have through this conversation and hopefully you kept looking for others, found some support. Sending you Love and light. 🤗❤️ 🌸🌺

Thank you so much for all the contents developed in this talk. It was worth listening, full of insights, love and connection healing, listening to our pain and accept help from others and rebuilt self love. So much appreciated Julia. Many blessings.

Thank you for yet another outstanding event.

Feel that people in hospital care home need at least one visitor to support both of them.Allowed visitor as someone dying but not to help them live.

Maybe you could ask him whether or not he feels comfortable speaking about the loss and his grief to you, saying that you ask because you care about him and wish to understand that part of him, if he is ok with that.
