not very christmassy need to say this :-(

Woah you guys made my eyes leak again.
I wish i had the faith in me that you guys have - I did a wonderful job of passing the buck this morning and cams support worker at the school has promised to talk to him about his worries and to explain death to him in a way he hopefully understands.
I think the hardest part of this is that Cam at 8 has more idea of his own mortality than my eldest has at 11. I do believe thats its an important part of Cameron accepting who he is and Im hoping that the school can give him the answers he wants without the emotion that me and dh show.
Thanks guys for listening x x x


And you just made my eyes leak....you are a very strong woman Louise, I can't even begin to imagine how you even find the strength to get out of bed everyday & face up to all that lies ahead of you. Cam is a lucky boy to have you as his mum. xxx

Big hugs to you & your whole family. :hug: :grouphug: :hug:
 
This has made me weep. It must be so heart-breaking for you. In the words of my DD's favourite book, 'Love, like starlight, never dies.':hug:
 
Awful thing for such a young one to have to even think about and I think he's been brave to tell you his feelings, even though they're upsetting.

Hey Louise sending you and your family huge :hug:

I agree with Tinks what a brave boy you have, I hope he gets some answer's from his support worker, I think you did the right thing in 'passing the buck' I can't imagine how difficult it must be to try and answer those questions without getting emotional, and your only trying to protect him from seeing you upset. You are very strong, and you've got the support of so many people your family and friends and all of us here on the boards.

I wanna get in my car and come hug you all! But I am meant to be working so will have to send you :hug::hug::hug: instead
 
I think hugs answer lots of questions that words just can't and Mummy hugs are the most special of all . I think you did exactly the right thing .

You are all so brave :hug:
 

you are amazing :hug: whatever you tell him will be okay. He is one brave boy and you are so lucky to be his Mummy.

My Neice had similar thoughts when she was young, as a family we found this a worry, but for us religion helped i.e. Sunday School, but I know this isn't for everyone.

Big hug to you both :hug:
 
Sending you a big hug Louise. Don't know what to say as I cannot even imagine what your family are going through.

Take care
Tina
