I am so sorry for your loss. I too lost a child, a daughter. She was only 6 weeks old but already an individual and my dreams for what she would become where many. But I do not know fully how one endures the death of a full grown child. I know a little of it because when I was 15 my Father (not a JW)lost his only son from his first marriage.(He still had 2 sons from the 2nd marriage.) My brother was 30 and died in a car accident. I do know also that my Dad was never the same again.
As I have said many times before, my life was rescued due to H2O. I am also very grateful for this board and all the people who run it and participate on it. I am glad that you find some comfort here.
If it helps at all, time does help heal and helps you endure. I will never forget my daughter and I will always think of her and miss her and wonder what she would have been like. But time does make it bearable.
My heart goes out to you.
