Which was the saddest day/moment of your life??

Question

And why??

Answer 1

The day my mom had a sudden massive stroke, went into a coma, and died two days later.....outta nowhere.

Answer 2

I've had a lot of joy and saddness in my life. That is part of having a full life and not being a barbie doll (plastic fake life).

my saddest day was,
The day after I got married my mom commited suicide -
She had a long struggle with MS and fibromyalgia which had already taken a large toll on our family and caused her to go into serious depression. This is a sadness that is never forgotten completly (11 years ago now)

That said I have a beautiful little family now and my dad is happily remarried to another wonderful woman. We are still a fortunate family.

Answer 3

The week my dad died. He had been ill with lung cancer for almost a year, and it was terrifying watching him go from a seemingly-healthy 57 year old to a pale, wasted wreck. The last week before he died, he lost the ability to communicate (the doctors said his brain had atrophied) so all he could do was moan and move about helplessly. We had no idea if he could hear us or knew what was going on; all we knew was that he was in terrible pain and couldn't lie still. Finally, when the hospice nurse told us it was time, we said good-bye and told him he could go ahead and leave us, that we would be sad and miss him but we'd be okay.

All of a sudden, a look of relief came into his face. We prayed with the hospice Chaplin, and he died almost immediately after. That's when I knew that he'd been holding on through all that pain just to be with us, even though he couldn't tell us so. It made me realize how much he loved us, and it made me so sad that I'd never be able to tell him that I loved him again.

Answer 4

So far although I've had sad moments/days, the saddest was the day my Dad was interred at Arlington National Cemetery and I truly realized I would never again see him or have the benefit of his wisdom and unconditional love.

Answer 5

The day my first child moved out into her own place. It was just really weird having her gone all of the sudden.

Now, having raised three children, we are empty nesters and it still feels strange to us.

Answer 6

The day my son went into a coma from a brain injury in a car accident.

Answer 7

when i was diagnosed with cancer, and the thought of being mortal hit me, and connected with the recognition that my greatest desire of marriage would never be achieved in this life, nor possibly throughout the entire mellenium. No wife, no glory, no exaltation.
That wasnt actually just one day, but it was one event.

The next worse experience did happen in one day. When i was betrayed by my faith in brethren at church who displayed complete conspiracy and a secret combination existed even in my church of choice. Such a revelation of sorcery and secrecy and lies, became evidence that I have never returned to church. and when I told one of my best freinds about how i could never return to church, I was dissfellowshipped, even though he misunderstood that I never lost my testimony just that i couldnt go to church anymore because of the Poison in the air that ruined my trust in them. of course it was just as sad to never hear ffrom him again either.

Answer 8

well, I lost my bf and baby at 24 and then I had a stroke at 30. I think if bf was alive he would help me get through this. Im learning how to walk again

Answer 9

Probably the day my dad died. It was so sudden and everyone was in shock. I don't think I need to say why.

Answer 10

It was May 1982 when my grandpa was buried. They played taps after a 21 gun salute. As taps played, it seemed I died with him.
