"I've been told that losing a child is the hardest event a person will ever have to endure.

I get why they say this. Death is hard enough to accept, even when a person who has lived a full life dies of old age. When we think someone was 'taken before their time,' it's even harder. And it truly is difficult to lose a child. I mean, mind-numbing, soul-scrubbing hard. Trust me."
