The loss of a child

[ST52v]

I got one of those phone calls this morning that we never want to get. One of my best friends from High School lost his 5 year old son. He is at the bottom of the worst year of his life. The divorce started about a year ago and the constant struggle to keep his house has been toped by this tragedy. They were just going for a ride on the tractor when Eddie slipped and fell. Please hug your loved ones and keep my friend and his family in your prayers.

So sorry to hear this...my brother lost his son 12 yrs ago...he was only 12 yrs old.

It was very hard on the entire family.

Prayers are with him and his family.

Sorry to hear that, losing children is a nightmare for everyone involved in it.

I cannot fathom the pain your friend must be in. It breaks my heart and nearly brings me to tears just reading this about someone I don't know. Makes all the things I stress and bitch about seem as insignificant as they truly are. I hugged my girls just a little longer last night at bed time. A prayer for you and your friend, I'm truly sorry for the loss

It breaks my heart every time I hear of the death of a child. I would not wish that loss on my worst enemy. We lost our 10 month old son to SIDS 15 years ago and it still hurts. Tell your friend he is in my prayers.

You almost took the words right out of my mouth. I have a 5yo son and it almost brought me to tears reading this. I hope your friend can find comfort in the times he got to spent with is son. The Pain must be unimaginable.
