Just found out tonight my sons friend aged just 7 was killed in a car crash last night,I cant stop crying thinking how only 2 days ago I spoke to the little boy and now he is gone.I can still see him and hear his voice.I feel so sad for his big sister who is best friends with my daughter.My thoughts are also with his mum who was divorced from his dad and he stayed with his dad at weekends.If only he had stayed at home he wouldnt have been killed.God I feel so dam upset.What this boy must have went through.Poor little boy he was so gorgeous and kind,he was thee best.He had his whole life in front of him.I just dont know what to say when I see his mum as she lives opposite me.Its going to be awful on monday not seeing him walk past for the school bus.

((((((((((( mazer )))))))))))) I'm so very sorry for your loss. It's never easy when a child is lost....so many unanswered questions

I cannot imagine how his mum is feeling right now. Devastated I'm sure is an understatement. And it's so hard to try to explain to children why something like this would happen when we as parents and adults can't even find the answers ourselves.

One thing I do know though is that by playing the "what if" game, makes acceptance of this horrible situation harder to deal with. Please try hard not to go there as it will only cause more pain.

I think in situations like this when we don't know what to say, it's best to say nothing.....and just hold that mum in your arms and weep with her. There are no words that can console her heart right now. But a hug and a knowing look of love and understanding will help more than anything in the world right now. Oh, and listening....if you can sit and listen to her talk. She needs to talk and to find her way through this. I know it will be so very hard to do....

I wish you and your children well. I will keep you and the child and his family in my prayers.

How incredibly sad. I am sorry for this loss

There is no pain on earth like the loss of a child. If you want to help the mother that lost her baby, just listen and let her talk.
It is a shock when a death occurs from a sudden accident like that..My sister died with her unborn baby when the car she was in got hit by a drunk driver. At the time the Los Angeles police was after this guy without using their lights or siren. The shock of finding out my sister was dead like that took a long time to believe. I am sure that little boy's mom in in shock too. How sad.

I'm so sorry. I have young kids and can hardly imagine having to face the loss of one of their friends, or trying to explain it to them. Best wishes to you all.
