I have held many titles in my life such as wife, daughter, sister, aunt, therapist, elected official and board member, but the title I have cherished the most is MOM. On Sept. 19, 2020, my world collapsed, and my life changed forever. My 18-year-old-son and two friends ran a stop sign and were hit by a drunk driver. My son and both drivers were killed in this horrific car accident. I could have never prepared for this day or the grief I have experienced over the past three months. As a professional counselor, I have had many trainings on grief. I am familiar with the stages of grief and I have assisted many clients in their own journey through the grief process. I realized very quickly that none of that mattered and I was entering uncharted territory.Â
