2 months ago my 6 year old son and I were run over by the school bus on our way to school. I have a younger son but I miss my 6 year old every single second of the day and really would love to speak to any other parents who lost a young child in a sudden and tragic way. thank you

i know who you are too, i am near by NIKIJC.
are you out of hospital?
only another parent in your position can come anywhere near understanding your pain
i so hope you find some comfort on here

Dear god, that is awful. I am so sorry for your loss.

That hurts just to read it..... what you're going through must be unbelievably painful. Nik - surround yourself with those you love and those who love and want to care for you. Grieving is complex & personal just allow yourself to follow it's path for now. So sorry to read this post and hear how painful it is being without your son. Take care & go easy on yourself x

I cried when I read your post. My son is 6 and I cannot begin to imagine what you are going through.

The thread several people have mentioned sounds like a place that might help you.

So so sorry for your loss. Breaks my heart to think of it.

take care.

Oh, how awful for you all. My heart goes out to you.

I hope that you can find others on MN who can help you through this horrible time.

Oh, that must be unbearably sad. I do hope you can find the support you are seeking on the bereavement thread. Bless you and your boys.

So sorry to hear that you have lost your little boy, my ds died almost 10 years ago, we where crossing a road together, he didnt stop on the island in the middle but carried on straight into the on coming car, he died the next day. I have been in the terrible place you are in, it will get better, you will learn to cope with it, I never would believe I could say it but it is true. I send you hugs, take each moment as it comes, you will come through it , I believe some people just arent meant to stay here, xxx

Thank you everyone for your very kind words of support xx I live in Wiltshire and the school was Woodborough, It happened on March 14th, so 6 months ago this month. Life not feeling any easier without him. I would love to hear from anyone, especialy those who know of any support groups other than cruse and winstons wish that I am already involved with. Thank you all again xx

Thank you for your support, I am so sorry about your son, how old was he? Thank you for letting me know there is hope my feelings of such despair will lesson. I know people say it takes time but at the moment, I just can't imagine a time when I may feel even half of a normal person again. Do you have other children? xx

Hi I am so so sorry. My friend has recently lost a child in a tragic accident and I think compassionate friends have been of a small help. It is run by bereaved parents so they will understand exactly what you are going through.

you can PM me if you'd like - I was in a very similar accident but my son was six months old. This was 8 yrs ago now but I would be happy to chat if you feel it would help.
