Oh god . How sad.

actually I note the headline on the front page has been changed back to "eldest"

How devastating for them.

just heard on the news- how terribly sad

so sad thinking of the cameron family,

How sad. My thoughts are with them at such a terrible time.

Very sad

This is very sad news for their family, i had no idea he was soo ill

How very sad

My heart goes out to the little ones family!

Really sad news.

My prayers are with the family at what must a desperately sad time.

It is very sad for them. No parent should outlive their child. Poor family.

how awful....the loss of a child is something too awful to have to consider.

thinking of the cameron family, and also all those mumsnetters who know only how horrifc it must be.

all the party leaders were just expressing their condolances at 12, and they have suspended prime ministers questions for the day as a mark of respect, so very sad, Gordon Brown will be feeling it too after losing Jennifer at such a young age

God, how awful. Poor kid, poor family.

So sad

My heart goes out to the whole family.

Such sad news. My thoughts are with his family

Very sad
I'm glad they've changed the headline now. It didnt sit right with me.

How terribly sad

awful news

my thoughts are with the family

Article reads eldest son now.

How dreadfully sad for them all, and all those who knew Ivan

Politics irrelevant.

Very sad news Poor family

speaking as a mother who has lost a child, I really really feel for them.

I hope the media allow them some privacy

and i thought gordon browns speech was particularly poignant - do not underestimate how hard it must have been for him to stand up in such a public way and speak about the death of a child - the Browns must be reliving their loss too, as will be every parent who has lost a child.

so sad

My thoughts are with the whole family.

terrible shock and so sad.

Was sad to hear this, this morning.

How terrible for them all. Thoughts with the family at this sad time.
