Today has been a day

Sleepless nights and anxiety have heightened my grief in such a way I feel like the wind has been knocked from my sail.

My heart feels heavier than it normally does.

The ache I carry every day hurts so much more.

I’ve been blindsided by a massive way.

Today, I’m missing my beautiful boy even more than yesterday.

There isn’t a moment that goes by where I don’t think of Jack, he lives in the forefront of my mind every day.

I share this, not for sympathy, I share this so that those who are walking a similar journey know they are not alone.

We may look ‘normal’ to many, but inside we are screaming and trying our best not to fall apart.

Today, I feel more broken than I did yesterday.

Today, I’m missing my beautiful boy more than I thought was ever possible.
