I posted the following on a friend’s memorial page for her sister that is dealing with grief, anger, and trying to process “God’s will” as it related to the sudden passing of her sister. As I re-read my words, I thought I would share them here in case they might help somone else on their grief journey.

As a mom grieving the loss of her 17 year old son, please know this.

You have every right to be angry. However, don’t let the anger control you.

People make mistakes. Doctors make mistakes (as was our case in dealing with my son’s cancer). It’s not always God’s will when people intervene and make choices.

Time does NOT heal all wounds. Time gives you new coping mechanisms and new ways to deal with the grief.

There is no time limit on grief. Absolutely none. Anyone that tells you otherwise is lying.

Journaling helps you to see your own progress through the grief spectrum. It’s for you and you alone, but on days where you feel like nothing is getting better, being able to look back on your own words helps to show you the progress you have made.

You do not have to adjust your feelings for the sake of others.

It’s hard. It’s extremely hard, but it’s not impossible. 🧡💔

Sharing this from another grieving mother... the accuracy in this is so on point for where I am as a mother going through the rest of her life without her youngest son. 🧡💔

People say, ‘I don’t know how you survived losing your child.’
The truth is, the person I was didn’t.
The person you were before your child died does not make it through untouched.
That version of you ends.
What happens instead is quieter, harder, and rarely acknowledged.
You become someone new.
Not by choice.
Not because you’re strong.
But because there is no other way to keep breathing.
Grieving parents don’t survive child loss.
They rebuild themselves around it.
A new nervous system.
A new way of loving.
A new relationship with time, joy, meaning, and pain.
You learn how to carry unbearable grief and still show up.
You learn how to exist in a world that kept spinning when yours stopped.
You learn how to live as someone forever changed.
So when people say, “I don’t know how you do it,”
the truth is… you don’t.
You become someone else who can.

Holidays without Tyrell are especially tough. However, tell the funny stories. Remember him when you’re watching scary movies or any teenage drama. He loved hard. He loved his family , his friends, and his fur babies with all he had. Remember him through the tears and in the smiles. Tyrell will always live in our hearts. 🧡🧡🧡🧡
