Hello @Stacey81,

I can see that you’re new to the community. I hope you find it to be a support to you, but I am so sorry for the loss of your son that brings you here.

You’re not alone. Sadly, many of our members have experienced the death of their child. I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support. In the meantime, you might find some of these organisations helpful:

  • Child Bereavement UK support families with the loss of a child. They also support bereaved children. You can call their helpline on 0800 02 888 40.

  • The Compassionate Friends support families who have lost a child of any age. They have a grief companion scheme where you can get 1-1 support from another bereaved parent. You can call them on 0345 123 2304.

Sue Ryder also has some resources which can help you cope with grief.

  • Our Grief Guide self-help platform which has information, resources and advice to help you through your grief

  • Our Bereavement Information pages which can walk you through what you are going through.

Thank you again for sharing – please keep reaching out.

Take care,
Seaneen

Stacey81, I am so sorry you have lost your son and my heart goes out to you.
I feel only a fraction of your pain as the child I lost wasn’t my own child but he did mean the world to me.
I totally understand your pain from the shock as the same as your son, the child I cared for just didn’t wake up and there was nothing we could have done about it. I really hope your son’s funeral brings you some peace. I am always here and happy to talk. Take care
