    I am so sorry you have to gp through this an your little boy. The older I get it seems you still have trouble with greiving. Tell your son he will come through as an angel-in his dreams. Just might not have crossed over yet. Years ago my sons firnd and my daycare kid was with another sitter- he drowned at age 6

    My 19 year old sister's boyfriend was killed in a car accident two weeks ago. I know words can't really comfort but I know how you are feeling. I wish I could make her pain go away but I can't. My thoughts are with you, your son and his friend's family. I'd love to say it gets easier but I can't be sure of that right now because it seems to be gatting harder for me and my sister. my heart goes to all of you.

    Although I was very recently bereaved when my beloved father died suddenly on the 9th January, I am still struggling to find the words to comfort you following the death of a child. Since my father's death I have thought back to when my sister in law lost her daughter in a car accident several years ago and realise that I did not and still do not know the words of comfort. My mother helped in a practical way by looking after my sister in laws baby and this is how my brother found his wife. I still don't know what to say except to try to live in the present and laughter will return to your life.

    this is so sad and terrible:never try to make sense of something like this..words are not enough during times like this...do whatever your heart and soul feel like doing to survive..just hug your son, and keep hugging your son for every second of being with your child is precious...something my father didn't care about..i've never received one hug or i love you from him (except when he wanted something from me)...just be there for your son, and 'by anothername' s comments are spot on..we all are with you...never hold back on emotions in cases like this just because it "doesn't seem right"..

    Sometimes nothing makes sense. Sometimes I think it is just a trick of the mind that anything makes sense at all. The trick allows us to go about our daily lives with some semblance of routine and gives us a framework to understand our values and our thoughts. Unfortunately, this trick doesn't always allow us to make sense of our experiences. I am very sorry for your loss. Please know my thoughts are with you.
