March 2021 has been the hardest month of my life. I lost my brother in law on the 1st of the month and life hasn’t been the same.

He was more than just my brother in law, he was my confidant. We had a very close relationship. After losing him, it seems like everything is falling apart. Andrew’s passing affected each and every family member, it is the most painful thing to see and experience.

His death was so sudden, he was hospitalized on the 24th of February, a week later, we was gone. I still do not understand why it had to be him, why weren’t we given the opportunity to say our last goodbye.

I still do not understand how God works, how he takes people away from us that mean the most to us. Why him? maybe one day I will get the answers but for now, I cannot come to terms with his passing.

It has been hitting me lately, I am finally in my grieving process. I feel lonely even when I am surrounded by love. I feel like I have no shoulder to cry on and I feel like I cannot explain how I feel because I am confused by this phase of my life.
