Truly feel for your loss. May God give comfort to you and your son.

Sorry dude, we are behind you. God Bless you and keep busy, as you mentioned. Find a friend to console with and maybe you could create a recipe or wine in her honor. Be sure to post.

Im not a religeous person but I am more of a spiritual person,

Brit,
First of, I hope both you and your son are doing well. Sorry I missed this earlier this year, I really hope you're getting on better these days. I quoted you only because what you wrote could have easily been something I would say. And the importance is that there's 10+ pages of good people reaching out to you in this time of sorrow. That's how I define spirituality; people with all their emotion, love and feeling reaching out to one another. There has to be strength and support it that.

Truly I hope you're doing well and the pain has begun to subside, I just can't begin to imagine... To quote a favorite artist of mine, "we come here to be a part of something, not to set ourselves apart". That's what I think of this community of homebrewers. Hang in there, and know that so many of us are pulling for you and your son.

I can't believe I missed this post for so long:

I hope things are going as well for both of you as could be expected given the circumstances. I have no idea what that must be like, but I think we all will one day.

I hope you find strength in unexpected places. God bless.

I'm also just seeing this - I'm so sorry for your devastating loss. I hope that time and good memories will help heal the hole in your heart. Please hold your son close and the good memories closer.

Thankyou for all the replies, i have not been brewing for a while, things took a downturn for me and I didnt feel like doing much of anything.
Im doing much better now though and im brewing an amber ale today!

Sorry to hear things got bad but am very happy to see you are better and brewing. If brewing makes you happy, brew as often as you can.
All the best to you and I hope you find some peace in your brew time.

 

[NickTheGreat]

Glad to see you back on and hear that you're doing better

 

[SupervisingChildren]

Completely understandable to hear that you're still grieving but glad to hear that you're starting to get back to some things you get enjoyment out of!
Welcome back!

Just seeing this thread for the first time. So very sorry for your loss, and I hope that brewing can help you in some small way with your recovery! God bless you and your family!

Well, this has been a roller coaster of emotions this year, i started brewing then lost interest again, especially with the holidays.
I'm hoping that once we get through the one year anniversary we can try to get back to some kind of routine.
Thank to everyone for your words of support.

 

[SupervisingChildren]

I hope you and your son get through the holidays with some enjoyment and that the new year brings you guys some sense of normalcy and happiness!

^^^^^Amen!^^^^^

Thank to everyone for your words of support.

Two things I learned from losing my wife: The passage of time helps and we all cope and recover differently. Some friends and family actually recovered more slowly than I did. I think because there was less day to day intensity for them.

Hope your next holiday season will be easier. Maybe use it as a time to be thankful for the good ones you had together.

Sorry for you loss, I honestly couldn't imagine. Focus on your health and then make sure you make every moment with your son the best it can possibly be.

Hope your next year continues to heal the loss of your wife and your son's mother.
