Hi All. As some of your know, my brother died in a workplace accident in 2011. Actually, I hate that word - accident. They killed him. Anywho, sentencing is on the 19th of November. I thought I would feel better, but I still don't. I'm still mad. My heart hurts. News ArticleI really hope they don't appeal. That will be worse. I just want my brother back. And if I can't have that, I just want someone to say sorry for killing Sonny and mean it. And if I can't have that, I just want someone to be punished for what they did. I just want to be myself again. I'm tired of being this bitter person.

Would someone saying I'm sorry really help? I would try to come to terms with it by not expecting or wanting anyone to do anything to you. It won't help. Grief just has to run its course.

I am so sorry for your loss. I just can't imagine how you must feel. It was so unfair and they were so negligent! I don't think I would feel closure for a long, long time, maybe never. I hope you find peace down the road.

Polz I am so sorry for your family's loss. It's not something you get over. You just find a new normal. Don't let comments like peasfreely bother you. If anyone in your family will benefit from a heartfelt "I am sorry" I hope that you get it. It's hard to move past losing someone when it was completely preventable.
Hugs. I hope your mom finds some level of peace once the trial is over.

I'm sorry. I read the article. What a terrible way to lose someone you love. I can see why you feel bitter about it. I hope in time you will start to feel more like yourself.

I'm so sorry. I understand the anger and wanting them to admit fault. ((hugs)) Finding/making peace with this kind of situation is a long, difficult process that no one should have to experience. Those who haven't been through this kind of situation can't really comprehend. I really, really hope justice is served and that they aren't able to appeal. And I hope that you and the rest of Sonny's family are able to have some peace as soon as possible

polz, I am so sorry for your loss and the ongoing legal process.
I know you have heard this, but really, I think you need professional counseling. You'll never "get over" your loss. No one would. But, a grief therapist can help you process your feelings. My dear DIL lost her mother in an accident. The therapist helped her tremendously. She still grieves, but can handle it much better.
Hugs and prayers to you for peace and comfort.

Polz, I can't make him come back. If I could I would do it in a heartbeat. I am sorry you lost your very loved brother. My heart aches reading your words. I am truly sorry and please know in my heart I am wishing you peace which I hope you get after the guy is sentenced. Hopefully one day (soon hopefully too) there will be light and love in your heart again.
Again I am truly sorry.
Hugs, Elannah

"seeing the accused try to duck and hide and shift the blame"
This is exactly what I thought as I read the article. I'm so so sorry. It was negligence that resulted in your brother's death. This should never have happened.

I am sorry for your loss.
I do know how you feel. My brother was killed ten years ago. I haven't experienced closure. And sometimes I feel like I did that first day. There are days that I don't think I can go on but I don't have a choice.
I don't feel there is a time limit for healing. Healing will come when YOU are ready.

aww, polz. I had no idea. I'm so sorry! Please be easy on yourself and also please do seek out counseling or a grief group if you aren't doing these things already. It does help. I hope you find some peace. Good luck.
