Thank you for replying. Neither of us can sleep anymore. I look at his photo and just shake my head
I try to keep busy…push it all away i guess
My son has down syndrome and had been complaining of neck and chest pain for over 2 years and all the gp gave him was paracetamol and honey with lemon
I feel so angry as he had known heart issues but was never checked
I am so sorry for your loss. We lost our son on 2/3/25 suddenly and unexpectedly. One minute he was talking to me the next he had gone. I know how you feel when whatever you’re doing all that goes round your head is them. My son had epilepsy and thickening around the heart but nothing was ever mentioned to me that any of it could be fatal. He started fitting last November after being fit free for several years. Despite taking him to the hospital several times even when he had had 40 fits in one day they still didn’t do anything. I now keep thinking that if they had done more he might still be here .

I lost my 16 year old daughter in January, very unexpectedly. Today I feel like the fog of denial has lifted and it suddenly feels real and overwhelming.
I am so very sorry for your loss. So young as well. It’s absolutely heartbreaking. Everyone on here is so supportive. Take care xx
Im so sorry. Its a pain no one can truly unserstand.
I don’t think anyone could understand the depth of pain. Some days it is crippling. xx
It really is. The coroner told me yesterdqy my son died of acute pulmonary edema due to cobgestive heart failure. He gad 2 known heart issues inc a leaking valve and had been complaining of sore throats, chest pain and vomiting for over 1 years yet his GP did nothing except give him paracetanol and honey and lemon drinks. My son had down syndrome and autism and couldnt explain how he really felt. Im so angry and am speaking to a solicitor now
