Went to see a clairvoyant last night (sad story)

[juniper68]

we didn't get a message (it was a clairvoyancy evening) but the ones that did were gobsmacked by his accuracy. He even knew someone had their 'late' boyfriends toenails in a locket??

Anyway, there was a mum there from school and her son is in my son's class. She tapped me on the shoulder and we had a quick chat. I don't know her very well but she's nice. On the bus back home she got on before me with two others so I sat at the back with her. She looked upset and then told me it's because her baby (8 months) got killed by a drugged driver before christmas I'd heard this story but didn't know it was her plus they've just moved here to get away from the village where they lived and it happened.The whole family were there when it happened as they were walking to buy shoes and clothes for the baby. She was talking about the baby and how he'd been shaking his bottle just before it happened and had milk on his face. And how she wants to kill the driver as he'll be out in 5 1/2 years. I just crumbled and was in floods on the bus but I couldn't control it. I just don't know what to say or do when I see her next. I want to invite her round as the boys get on well.

Something has come out of this encounter - you now can help this lady - even if it is just to be there for her and share her pain - you may have made a life long friend.

I can't even write how I feel, this is so sad.

Ouch! so sad, please invite her round.

I was thinking that too Twinkie, I certainly hope so.

Maybe this is your opportunity to help her? Friendships can be formed in the most strange circumstances, and maybe this one is forming for a reason. If you get on with her and feel you could be of help, then why not suggest a meet up?? Perhaps someone (like oyu) who isnt directly involved (like family) will be of more help in some ways. Good luck and good on your for caring.

strange you were brought together at a clairvoyeance though....maybe its a sign?? I would invite her round. She understand and will know how upset you are after all......

Oh God, well like the others have said she's been bought into your life for a reason and you hers so yes do invite her round.
Feel too upset to say anything else.

It's really strange but when I helped out in the class I felt so drawn to her son and gave him extra help with his writing as he was struggling but so were others.

hope she's able to visit you , poor woman

So sad.
I can't begin to imagine their pain.
You could be a good freind to her+

Oh god How unbelievably horrible. Such a vivid picture she painted too - you hear about these things but don't think about the detail like that IYKWIM.

I think you should invite her round. She obviously likes you or she wouldn't have opened up to you

message withdrawn

Terrible, awful, what she and her family must be going through - everyone's worst nightmare..

Of course invite her over, she may well appreciate that you did show your feelings very clearly about what had happened.

What can you say to something like that? It's your worst nightmare, and it happened to this poor woman.

Invite her round. If they've just moved then they probably don't know that many people and seeing her son playing with yours will be good for her, to know that he's OK. Maybe it'll help her to...

I would have broken down too, in fact I did just reading you post, let alone hearing it from the mother.

Yes I'll definitely invite her round. I lost my sister last year and even though it's nothing compared to what she's going through we both know the rawness of grief.

I do believe people are brought together for a reason sometimes and this seems like one of those times. As everyone has said - you can be there for her and help her through. It's such an unbelievably sad story, makes me feel sick to even think of it, but you can be there for her.

I'm going to go and hug my ds now.

Thats terrible, the poor woman (don't know what else to say)
