I will talk to anyone that wants to listen...I lov talking about my son❤

I lost my precious 4 year old son 2 months ago.. i hate April 15.. i feel like i hate the world sometimes.. i miss him so so much!! I miss hearing his voice& holding his little hand.. the pain that comes after loosing a child is UNREAL...it can EASILY make you go crazy! Seriously crazy! I want to look at pictures and videos but everytime ive done that i get really low& in a weird state where im questioning if life is even real..i have to be careful how often i look at pictures because it is too hurtful.

That's disgusting..I lost Roy after 50 years I get my own back by saying you have it all to come it's abhorrent!!!!! people need to know and have more sympathy for as long as it takes .. but life goes on iv been told .. she is stunning and in God's trust xxx❤️❤️❤️❤️

I lost my only daughter , Saffron in April 2024. She was 9 yrs old😢 as a single mum i cannot envisage a future without her. Thanks for all ypur videos❤

Thank you for the reminder regarding the frequency of car accidents. I remember a text came in on my phone a few years ago while I was driving. At that moment, I was the first car sitting at a red light at an intersection. The text came in and I read it which made me hesitate a bit to go through the light. As I read the text, a car came speeding through the light from my right to run the red light to get through. Had I not hesitated to read the text, I would have been hit broadside by that car. I don’t advocate being on your phone while driving. I was just thankful that day that I didn’t advance as normal once the light turned green for me. I hope to be more careful as I encounter intersections. Life changes so fast.

It hasn’t been long, Brooke. Two years really is not long (and there’s been total upheaval in your life as a whole -- not to mention everything that came before that - that it’s beyond weird that anyone would be telling you to get over it. I think I might have posted it here before. Pastor Tony Evans lost 8 family members in 2 years ... his dad, his sister, his wife, .his niece ... .... .... and others and it was like every 3 months here came another one, one on top of the one before. His faith is in Christ and it’s different mindset of loss but it’s painful to go through, nonetheless. We have an “interesting” view of “time” in this modern culture, here in the US, and as microwave/ same day delivery/ impatient people, we think like children. No, we are not there yet. We just left the house. In fact, we’re still in the driveway😞 . ...but no, Brooke, two years really is nothing. This life is a whole process.🌱 Blessings

This was really helpful. Olive Garden was my daughter’s go to celebratory restaurant also.

I watch you every time you are on and today was an awesome show. They all are. I felt so bad when you said that you can't bake Libby's Favorites Things. Can I maybe suggest something? What if you "tried" baking one of her favorites and then take it to someone from You and Libby. Or make some cookies and put in small containers and label them With Love from Libby and take them to an Assisted Living or Convalesent Hospital for others to enjoy from You and Libby. I'm sure it will be really hard at first but I hope it might help. My Best.

Thank you for being so vulnerable- both of you and sharing your losses.

Wasn't that Jenga visualization amazing? What was your favorite part of the interview?

How do I deal with my family talking about family members who have passed. But they attach such a negative narrative… like talking about how they traumatized them or talking about how they can’t live life because they’re gone. I lost my mom recently and my grandma and sister have been making it so hard on me with this kind of thing. I feel horrible because I don’t like when they talk about people in my family who have passed. I lost my father 2018 and a few more the same year. I just don’t know how to be there for my family anymore. We never had a strong dynamic

I’m very sorry for the loss of your child. And wow that you hear to help us help others in their grief. Every time you help it’s a hug from Libby.

Such great examples of grief and wonderful advice. Your boys are so lucky to have you as a mom. And so was Libby.

my brother died november 16 2013. the whole week is near impossible, and the actual day has me crying in the bathroom all day at school. i’m so sorry for your loss ❤

I just went to visit my in-laws out of state, a place we have gone a lot with our 2 kids and I totally get it. It has only been 5 months since my daughter died & I realized that it was way too soon for me to visit all these places we all always go to together. Everything just felt wrong, different, not as good as it used to be if that makes sense. It just felt sad & I felt a strange cloud around us all that just felt sort of like anxiety or tension that never was there before.

You do incredible things to honor Libby!🩷Just as a suggestion, I know many grieving parents who still buy their child's favorite things and leave them out at their house/grave or memorial. For some it's nice to still buy things.

Brooke Carolck hello anyway I'll be sure to tell family vlogs about you and your family i just hope TH-cam will let me say your full TH-cam name just because your TH-cam name has the word S u c k s in it as well:).

I also vacation in the outer banks. Had you seen us, we might have been one of those families that triggered you as I have two adult daughters and a son. We would look totally normal and happy all together on the beach. But what no one would realize is how deeply we are grieving the loss of my daughter’s baby girl Violet this past March. My world has shattered. I cry every day for my pain and my daughter’s as I am helpless to take her pain away. I am sad angry jealous-all the things at any given moment. In a crowd I often look around, certain that I am the saddest person in the room. I can’t look at a baby, walk down the baby aisle of a store, or go to a multitude of places that just feel too painful. But no one knows this and I don’t know their story either. Thank you for your videos, our losses may be different, but we are not alone in our grief. Hugs ❤

1000% agree with all of this. I have had many moments like you said "have to go!". Also that huge sunken feeling when you realize, what a minute he would be older than that now! Tsunami of waves of grief and joy and guilt. 100% agree. ❤

Hello QUEEN ❤

Thank you for making your videos, Brooke! It’s always nice to know we’re not alone in our grief & I was just thinking the same thing about vacations!

I know what you mean. I went to New York with my friend. My husband and I talked about going there but we never made it. I was so proud of myself and had such a good time. I knew my husband would have been proud too that I went and had fun that’s all he ever wanted was for me to be happy. I never felt the guilt but I’m finding lately when I’m happy for whatever reason I become very angry. He should be here sharing these moments with me. I feel the dark cloud over me all the time now and it’s pretty scary. I thought I was doing better. I guess I have to ride this wave once again

Very true!💕

(For me) I do think there is going to have to be a timeframe on how I’m going to practically manage this new life of mine. Lost twice in 2023, six months apart. I’m going to have to now set up ways that I can function and that it won’t be all consuming and debilitating for me. What are my goals? What’s my new life action plan? How do I get there? This changed everything. Now I have to recalibrate. And for the rude people (my relatives,) I’ve told them directly “with everything I’ve jusr been thorough, I’m not doing this with you.” They now no longer have anything at all to say. That’s perfectly alright with me. If you can’t say anything helpful, saying nothing is even better. Peace and love 🌱

Thanks for saying what I was afraid to admit..

gried stays the same but we learn to grow and cope with the losses

Healing takes work and sometimes a lot of time. I had to learn to be patient with myself. I like using a mindfulness book called 30 Days to Overcome Regret by Harper Daniels.

😢 heartbreaking

Thanks David. I just lost my dear Dad 8 weeks ago. We were very very close. The world without him is joyless. I know it will get better. But it is so hard. I do have 4 grown kids so I don’t have that type of loss. I call those breakdowns, grief spasms. Fathers Day weekend was so difficult. I miss him every minute.

Thank you for this video

💚

Yes! The internal dialog is strong! People would be totally shocked if I let them out!

How did you navigate your daughter’s loss.? Can you talk about that? Can you talk about what helped you get through the ruff patches. I know you still grieve Abby, but seeing you (And I did buy your book } ; but I cannot focus to read right now. Could you speak about how you got through all the lose you experienced, after Libby passed. God bless you, you give me hope.

Was the loss of your daughter the cause of your divorce? I know it does break people part. You and you Ex seem to have a great relationship, even though you are not together.

It gets a little easier with every day. ❤

I could not do it. I'm so sorry. I'm crying for you and us. 😢

My heart breaks for you I know how hard it is💔

I'm so sorry, Brooke. My heart aches for you. She was so very special. Almost two years into my own loss and a part of me is still in shock and disbelief. I am always hoping that tomorrow will be better. Much love. ❤️

Mine is Wish you were here.. (Pink Floyd) Casey struggled with mental illness, drug and alcohol abuse along with aids. He was messed up but he was my son. My oldest daughter was reading your book and made the comment that Libby dying is worse because she was sweet and young. I think it is true but I also miss and loved my broken son.

Oh I truly understand today is Tuesday and I have been thinking about my son all day. Seems like everywhere I turn. I have a reminder. It's a big wave today, but we will get through it❤

Hi Brooke, you are so good and strong to accept how your brother comments on your grief and talking about beautiful Libbie. If any family, friend or acquaintance EVER said similar things to me about how I honour and grieve over my beautiful daughter, Paris, I would not be able to tolerate them in my life. Well done for putting up with it and being understanding to your brother. I really find it hard to understand how he cannot accept you are coping so so well and also helping so many other bereaved parents too!!!! I feel you are SOOO inspirational!! Sorry to say this but , who needs a brother/relative/person like that in their life? It is hard enough to function after such a devastation, without having to put up with such negative people. I do not mean to cause any offence!! Bless you, Brooke-we love you. Thank you for all your amazing videos. love and hugs from Colchester, UK xxxxxx❤️💞❤️💞❤️

Thank you both for sharing once again. I had a weird experience when I was on a business trip across the country a couple of weeks ago. There was a young man who looked so much like the friend I lost. I feel you when you say you just want to hug the girls that remind you of your daughter. I stalked this guy for like five minutes. lol Even his mannerisms were so much like my friend - the way he dressed, he was taking goofy pictures with his girlfriend just like my friend and his girlfriend would do. I just wanted to stop him and say something, but how weird would that be - hi you really remind me of someone close that I lost last year. Can I get a picture with you? 😂 i just miss my friend so much. I want him back!! 😢 Thank you again for this video. One of these days, I’ll remember to jump on when you’re live.

Thank you

absolutely.

I love listening to you both. I once heard someone say after loosing their child that you've not only lost your child but you have lost a lifetime with them. That you always wonder what if...

Hi, I am glad that your talk is about hobbies and interests. I have started sewing again. I am starting small. I found patterns for bucket hats. I was making grocery bags. You are right. I am not just sitting around and depressed. I found out that I can live again when I am sewing. Thank you so much for saying the things you say. You are amazing. Have a wonderful week. And God bless.

So glad I got to jump in and say hello. I listened to the replay on my drive home...I often do. It was cool to hear that David goes through and reads the comments..ive always wondered bc I've thought of dropping him some love too. I appreciate that he shares so much as well...I am an emotional person like he is...and these videos really help people with all these raw feelings no matter what. Appreciate you both always so much. ❤️ and I have to say I'm so sorry your brother makes such an effort to show his discontent related to libbys death. I'm sure he has moments alone quietly that no one will ever see where he suffers...which is also very sad 😢. It seems all the frustration he should direct toward his own losses and grief, is redirected as an irritability toward you or maybe grieving people in general...idk. Was he also this way when your parents had passed? I feel like he needs that good will hunting moment where he's just pushed into releasing all the pent up anger and emotion he has. I hope you guys stay close though and he comes around more. ❤

Hey Brooke, I’ve been following you since my little girl Gaia - 5 years old passed November last year. I do understand you because looking at little girls breaks my heart, seeing mums & daughters holding hands… the list is long. This pain is cruel. Sending love to you guys. X
