This week a child at my childrens small primary has died due to a massive asthma attack. I have been lucky enough to reach 36 yrs without having experienced this before now. The little boy was a friend of ds and recently played at our house, I know the full details of event and it is breaking my heart, I cannot get it out of my head. Dc's seem to be coping fine but they do not know details obviously. Since my friend has told me I can't stop crying. My husband died 6 yrs ago very unexpectedly, but a child so young it seems so very cruel. I really don't know what I am asking for, I just need to put it into perspective.
