How awful, my condolences.

So very sad for you and your family. My heart goes out to you .
Oh Shirleyone, many thanks for sharing on here, it must have been hard for you. My deepest sympathies and condolances go out to you and your family. Your son was only a year younger than me.
If it helps you to talk about Colin, then I am sure you will have many readers and forum friends wishing to help in any way they can x
Shirley, as a mum you have had to face our worst fear losing a child.
This life is but a blink of the eye but the deep waters of eternity are forever.
May peace enter your heart as you journey on this road of grief. Thank-you for sharing with us at this terrible time. I am sending you a cyber hug and hope as you think of all his childhood memories and as a young man you will have a smile through your tears. Your tears are so precious .......
Bless you at this time. xxxx
So very very sorry to hear this

I'm so sorry for your loss Shirley,so sad to lose your son to this terrible illness.May God comfort you in your hours of grief and your beloved boy rest in the arms of Love.
I am so sad to read about your loss - how dreadful. Words seem inadequate - but please know that my thoughts are with and your family. May your son rest in peace and please god you too find peace. With much love and every best wish, Auntymary xx
I am so sorry for your loss, words do not bring him back, but I hope it comforts you to know we are all thinking of you. I have COPD, also brittle asthma. But my worst nightmare was 2 years ago when my son was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis in his lungs. He is 38. The damaged it has done cannot be reversed. He has just been referred to the Royal Brompton where we hope they can help as he has the chronic condition.
I can understand what you are going through as I live in fear, not for myself but for him. I have survived to age 60 against a lot of odds including collapsed lungs and even cancer. But this has rocked my world.
I shall keep you in my thoughts
dear shirley, i am so very sorry to hear of your sad loss, i was 38 when i was diagnosed, my mum died the year previous at 61, it must be heartbreaking for you, please feel free to chat anytime, this site has helped me and hopefully it will you as well love and best wishes xx
you must be feeling full of sorrow ..am so sorry to hear your dreadful news. reach out for all the love you can get - it helps in grief. Know that although it is hard to believe, that the pain will feel more bearable over time and your smiles at your son's memory will come more often. Take very good care of yourself. What would Colin be saying to you now ? maybe have a conversation wih him, that seems to help a friend of mine whose young son was killed.
I am so sorry at a very yough age Thinking of you and your family god bless,
I am so sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you and your family xxx
