Has anyone else divorced after their loss?

Hello Share! It's been a while since I've been on here.... and it has been nothing but drama. Right now I'm still in the Army and I'm in Iraq right now for a year tour. I loss my son Anthony on October 24th, 2006 from SIDS and he was almost 3 months old. I've been trying to piece my marriage together since, and he has been doing things that made it impossible to stay married. Now that I'm finally fed up and is going through the divorce, I'm starting to realize that he is the only one that knows exactly how I feel. I use to turn to him when I had my weak moments. I can talk to my family and friends and they feel for me, but they haven't been through it. Has anyone else on here been through this. I feel like I'm grieving 2 deaths.... my sons and my marriage!

I'm so sorry that you had to go through that alone. It's difficult when the father is a part of things, but I'm sure it's more than difficult when he's not willing to at least grieve with you.

I am so sorry that you had to go throught the birth and the aftermath of your grief journey alone. The one person who should understand and hurt on the same level that you are is not there and that...well that sucks! I couldnt imagine walking this journey by myself. Please know that you are not alone as there are many of us on a path from grief to peace. Please feel free to share as much or as little as you want.

Take care,
Yolonda
