Hi, Nancy!
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My only sibling, a brother, was tragically killed by a drunk driver nine years ago on Dec.2. He left two young children, and I know what we all went thru that year, and have every year since. My mother lost her husband after only 10 years of marriage and truly never recovered. After my dad's death, my mom lost both her parents, three brothers and a sister before her own death in 2001. She said many, many times that the loss of a child is the worse pain one can experience, so I truly feel for you. My prayers are with you and your family.
