Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I am in two minds whether to post about this as it is such a tragedy, but I'm so upset by it and can't get it out of my mind. I know you will offer sympathy and support. A girl in my ES's class at school has died in her sleep, aged 16. She went through primary school with him and her younger brother is in my YS's class. We both know her parents, not well, but they are two of the nicest people I've ever met. She was such a lovely girl, really bright and sporty and with a great future ahead of her. It's so sad and I can't stop thinking about what her parents are going through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 OMG - I don't know what to say - except I'm very very sorry! When I lived at home - there was a lad in the cul de sac off ours who went to bed feeling a bit rough & died. I also remember a girl at the school I went to having a brain hemmorhage in her sleep. Terrible to happen to anyone, but even more terrible to happen to such young people who are only just starting out on the life journeys.

Phonix Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Oh that'ss awful - her poor family and friends. How is your son? my thoughts are with him and all your family - even when its not someone you were extremely close with these things can have an awful impact.

BeckyBoo Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Very very frightening for all those left behind and an absolute tragedy. I cannot imagine the families anguish, nor do I really want to even try. Sometimes there is no justice and no determining reason in this life. I'm not religious so I can't say a prayer, but I'll be thinking of the family when I'm looking up at the moon and stars tonight and wishing them strength and love Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abwsco Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Such dreadful news {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} to you all and will be thinking of you and the family. Hopefully the school will offer counselling for the pupils. (My youngest daughter aged 16 has lost two friends through suicide in the past couple of years and she went through all sorts of emotions but the counselling did help) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alih Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 how absolutely awful for her family. It is so unusual thank goodness but such a terrible shock. I think every night how lucky I am as I count my kids in at bedtime. i can;t imagine ever getting over something like that. I suppose it is small comfort that she was asleep and won't have been in pain or afraid.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
