Scenario

When couples grieve the loss of a child differently

My husband and I lost our 16-year-old son in a car accident eight months ago and we've become strangers who happen to share the same unbearable grief. He throws himself into work while I can barely get out of bed some days, and we don't know how to reach each other across this chasm of different ways of falling apart.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who love each other are drowning separately in the same ocean of loss, unable to find each other in the darkness.
