My past story is first hurricane sandy took my house, them found out my WH cheated with a hooker for BJ's and now my son was riding his motorcycle with a few friends and person cut him off and slammed on his break going from 70mph. to 30 in a second my son when head over heals over the handle bars then let the scene. Long story short my son is in the hospital with no feeling on his left side for a few days and now starting to get some feeling back. The man was arrested and charged with road rage with the intent to kill. Plus more tickets. I just pray for no more. I'm not sure how much more I can take.......

I'm sorry, 27.
Best wishes for a swift and comfortable recovery for your son.
My life is as complicated as yours, but in different ways, and what I've had to learn is, unfortunately, to basically compartmentalize.
If you can live only for the day, in a moment, and take each event or issue as it comes to you, it helps. Some of the issues of life are huge, dramatic and terrible, but in the scheme of every day, it can actually be calming to only "Live In the Now", as Wayne and Garth say.
It's really helped me to put some major life changes and issues into more perspective and making lists when you can focus helps.
Giving yourself some space to just grieve and then put it away for a while is good. Another thing that helps is appealing to your senses and breathing and counting.
I wish you well and I wish you peace.

Saying prayers for you and your son.
Sometimes all you can do is breathe and count the minutes till you take another breath. And that is ok.... just don't forget to breathe.
Hugs,

Gosh, you're right about that--"how much more..." Definitely over the top. Wow.
It is true. You're forced by sheer mental exhaustion to take one moment at a time and breathe. Take care of yourself. Drink, eat, and take care of your son.
Prayers coming your way.
