My 28-year-old son, who was healthy and very active in sports, passed away on August 20th, 2021, while playing football. He suddenly collapsed, and we rushed to four different hospitals in an ambulance, but none of them helped him, and he died on the way. He had received both of his vaccines and suffered a cardiac arrest. We are all in shock and can’t believe he is gone.
Every morning, I feel like he’s still sleeping in his room. My younger son is also struggling to move on, and my husband is depressed and taking medication.
Sometimes, I feel so miserable that I’m still alive and my son is gone. He was just starting his life and had big plans for his future.
Life feels so unfair. People who are very sick want to die, but young people are the ones who are passing away. I don’t think I will ever fully recover from this. Every day feels like a battle where I live but feel like I’m dying inside a little bit.
The smiling face you see in the photo is my older son, the one who passed away.
Last Christmas, we had lunch together, and this Christmas, he’s gone. Please love your family because you never know when someone will be gone.
