Our 23 year old son passed away as he was battling colorectal cancer. My husband and 3 boys are just struggling in life now. We prayed desperately for our son to survive but everything that could go wrong went wrong. My oldest doesn’t believe anymore saying if God was real why weren’t our prayers answered. Why did his brother die. I’m heartbroken. I don’t understand why our son died. I know he is in heaven but I’m crushed why we have to live the rest of our lives with such grief. I now pray constantly that our other 3 find their faith and know God is still with them. Find the path in life they are supposed to be on. Find some happy peaceful moments on this earth.
