The loss of a child....

I know what you mean about it not being right. YOur children are supposed to out live you its the natural excepted order i have seen people in lose of a child it is truely so sad and i hope to god i never have to go through it dont know how i could to tell ya the truth. My heart goes out to these family and i will make sure to keep them in my prayers too.

I will pray for them and I am sorry for their losses. No parent should ever have to go through that pain.

I cannot imagine how she must feel. I will keep her in my prayers. Those families will really have a long hard road, just dealing with what has happened. I know when my sister was killed in a car accident in 1990 and she was 19. It was so hard for my parents and it still is. This is just not how it is supposed to be.

How very sad. It is always tragic when a very young child is killed by an accident like this. It is not fair that any mother should have to give up her child in this way. I think about the accident with the Hydro truck a few years back. People tend to blame the parents, but any parent knows it is IMPOSSIBLE to watch over your children every single second. Prayers go up for these families.

I will pray for these two families. You are right all we can do is ask him to help these families to make their way through this grief. I cannot imagine losing my child.

I send my prayers as I know what they are going through my son was taken from me and he was 18 and it doesn't matter what age. It is not the way it should be, it is the most heart wrenching pain that I would not want anyone to ever experience. My condolences to the families on their loss.

You are right my friend. Losing a child no matter how old they are is devastating for the parents. My prayers go out to the families.

That is just terrible- I bet the mom feels worse than ever- I can't imagine loosing a child ever- and then thinking they are one responsible for that loss- I am guessing she was driving- So she must feel absolutley terrible-- accidents happen I know- I have flipped my 4-wheeler over a couple of times- I will pray for your friends family- How sad. I hope that they are able to pull through this- with the support of family and friends and God. I saw the other post and was very sad for the women who lost her son in the driveway- I cannot imagine loosing a child- My daughter is my everything

That is horrible and I have to agree that I cannot imagine EVER having to deal with the loss of one of my children . We are supposed to die before they do and pray to God that I never have to go through anything like this . A good friend of mine lost her son at sixteen and I had to take the call and be the one to tell her that her son was never coming back . I never want to have to go through anything like that ever again and don't know how anyone emotionally can ever overcome something like this . It does not matter if a child is six , sixteen or an adult as children are supposed to out last their parents . It does make it harder when you hear that it was a child and a young child because you realize all that they will never get to experience in life because of one mishap and how quickly what we had today can be gone tomorrow . I will definitely pray for these two families and any other families that are going through the loss of a child as it is definitely the hardest thing a parent would ever have to endure and it would be a part of you that could never be replaced no matter how much time ever went by . That is so sad to think that yesterday a family was whole and today they will never be the same again . We truely need to look at what we have today and treasue it always as we never know what tomorrow will bring . Take Care .

Speaking from experience, I do not think that there is anything you will ever experience that is more painful than losing a child, especially a young child. It makes it so much worse when it happens unexpectedly like with their accident, or our house fire. You are right, it is not the way it is suppose to be, and no parent should ever have to suffer through it. My heart goes out to this mother, as there is no loss greater than this. My thoughts and prayers are with all those involved.

Oh, those were really tragic stories. But don't worry, they often said that there's a reason for everything although it's really hard for us to see the reason. Let's just be assured that God won't give us all burden we couldn't carry. God will surely help those both families get through this. I would just like to share a part of a song that I usually hum/sing whenever some bad things happen. "God is too wise to be mistaken. God is too good to be unkind. So when you don't understand, When you don't see His plan, When you can't trace trace His Hand, Trust His Heart." I guess all it's trying to say is that no matter what happens, however tragic things may seem, God loves us so much and we just have to trust that love. He already has proven that love when He had given up His one and only Son to die on the cross for our sins. May both families keep on serving and trusting Him no matter what life brings. :)

This is terrible. I will keep them in my prayers. I had recently had a friend lose her son due to carbon monoxide poisoning, her parents were also lost at the same time. They were baby sitting her son for her at their home and had a malfunctioning furnace. She came to get her son only to find them all in their beds no longer with us. Her sister called ma and i missed the call but got the message and couldnt get a hold of anyone so i looked it up on the internet to get the details and i was horrified, and just couldnt believe it and i had so much grief even though it wasnt my family that i almost couldnt stand it.And once i was finally able to talk to her there were so many things i wanted to say but just couldnt because you dont really know what to say without making things worse so i just let her know that i was there for her and if there was anything she needed to let me know but i had such a strong heartbroken feeling with a friends child i think if it were ever my own i wouldnt, couldnt bear it

Oh so horrible..I can't imagine also if my child will be lost at a spurn of a moment. I will go crazy about it. Or maybe speechless for the rest of my life. Well God is so wonderful to me and my family that it can't be happened. I'm always praying for the safety of my family every now and then. I will pray for them also. thanks for sharing this. :)

I will pray for those families as well. I can't imagine losing my kids. When I do, I get all blubbery. I honestly don't think I could take it.

OMG That is really awful and so sad. I will certainly pray for these families and ask god to help them through their grief. Its just so so sad.

She is my friend and her name is rosaflorance, probably you would have seen my responses there. I am planning to offer a holy mass to her son on this Sunday. I will certainly remember Jill and her son in my prayers.

the family is in my thoughts an prayers. god bless her an her family. i couldnt imagine loosing my child

These stories are so gut wrenching. I am a mother and I can't imagine in my lifetime what it feels to loose a child (knock on the wood). I can't just imagine the grief and sorrow. I will pray for these families because it will be hard on their part. Hope they can find comfort that their children are now in a happy place with the angels like them.

I was heartbroke to when i read the story and this makes me sad too.I will pray for the families.That they can make it through the hard days.

Being a mother, I can't imagine what these people are going thru. I'm like you, I don't think I could go on if anything happened to my child. I would want to die too. I will keep them in my prayers. Sorry for your and your sister's loss.
