Godson has died , feel like my heart is going to break.

Options
Hi all, this is nothing to do with money saving at all, but I feel that If I don't write my feelings and thoughts down I am going to explode with sadness.My godson died last week, he had an accident 2 years ago that left him in a wheelchair and unable to move from the neck down.He was in hospital for nearly a year before he was well enough to move home with his dad.Well he bacame ill again a few weeks ago with a flu type bug and just couldnt shift it and he sadly passed away last Thursday:(.Since he died I have not been able to think straight and have been crying with what feels like forever.He was 17 years old , what a waste of a young life.I have just found out from his dad that his funeral is in 10 days time.I have no idea how to cope with what has happened I know this sounds selfish as I am here and he has gone r.i.p my precious godson.You will allways be remembered.
Paul Walker , in my dreams;)

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton

    My heart goes out to you and his family. It dosn't sound selfish at all, you are grieving and you must allow yourself to cry as and when you need to.
    God bless
