The natural death of a loved one that is older for me has been a little easier then the loss of my child before his time. It will be 10 years next month and the pain is much deeper than my grandparents which I spent more time and loved very much as well. We all have different ways to mourn and I think talking about it helps to make it easier on us. Nice post thank you.

I cannot imagine what it would be like to loose a child. I have two boys of my own and we managed to raise them to be grown adults. I thank you for sharing your perspective and for bringing a deeper awareness of the differences. I suspect you are right as our connection to a child is the deepest, perhaps even more so than our spouse. The deeper the relationship the deeper the mourning. My thoughts and prayers go out to you my friend. Thank you for having the courage to share and write about it. I appreciate that greatly!
