For six months, my mornings began the same way: alone, clutching my son Luke’s hoodie and breathing in the scent that still felt like him. He was seven when a sudden accident took his life, and in one moment, the world I knew ended. Grief hollowed out our home, and my marriage didn’t survive it.
My husband left, not out of cruelty, but because he couldn’t bear watching me fall apart. Friends faded, family gatherings felt unbearable, and even the sound of a baby crying could undo me. I learned how isolating loss could be, how it reshapes everything, leaving you unsure whether life will ever feel whole again.
