A close friend of mine and her three year old toddler died in a car accident on Tuesday night. I'm doing all i can to carrying on as normal for the sake of my unborn baby but i fell so overwelmed with grief i cant begin to tell you how sad i feel inside. How does anyone ever get over something like this i'm devastated

i'm not going to say i know how you feel but 2 weeks before seren was due a childhood friend of Rob's died in a car crash, i had know him 3 years and he was the sweetest guy. my boss is a busy body and it was the gossip de jour in the town where i work and so my bosses theory was that as he and his twin brother were young (22) they must have been drunk and speeding. in fact they had a tyre blowout and lost control, no alcohol no speeding no way it was their fault, my boss wouldn't beleive me when i tried to correct him and just kept saying that young hooligans get what they deserve and it might make these young barry boys think. he was such a nice guy and my bosses words made me feel sick, how could he be so heartless. he was the nicest person, so kind, always happy, it wasn't his time his twin Scott is still a shell and i'm in floods of tears just writing this. it will always hurt, but with time it does become easier to come to terms with. message me if you want to talk :)

OMG hun thats awful! im so sorry to hear that!

its an upsetting thing for anybody to go through, but your pregnancy hormones will prob make it soo much harder! no one will expect you to be acting as normal, so act however you feel! if your sad, have a cry! if your angry, slam some cupboard doors! your better off getting it out!

i dnt think you'll ever get over it, but it will just get easier with time. and your baby is something positive for you to look forward towards, this doesnt mean you'll forget your friend and her child. but you'll just find a way of being happy.

im so sorry your going through this hun! * HUGS *
