This puts life into perspective........ (1 Viewer)

I was just sitting here this evening, watching TV and keeping an eye on the city score line when I got a text from one of my daughters. My son, who I am extremely close to, has two young boys aged 11 & 13. He has been separated from the boy's mum for years but has those lads week in, week out, taking them away on holiday etc. He lives for them. But now his life has changed in a few days. His ex-partner, the boys mum, died today after being in a coma. Her heart just gave out. She was just 34. My poor son works shifts at JLR and has had to take time off to try to work out just what to do. He has his boys with him, but they must be devastated.
I feel numb.
Sorry for the negative post but I just felt like off-loading.

God bless to you and your family, I could never imagine your hurt and pain that your son and them poor kids are feeling, thoughts are with you all, you are totally right, football or any other sport is insignificant at this tragic time!

You're right H. Does put things in perspective.
Thoughts with your family mate.

Oh sh** Houch, that's awful news, but I guess some light is that they have spent lots of time with their dad, so he's not a stranger. It's going to be tough for you all, but I know you'll play your part to help as much as you can.

He's taken time off from work and has posted pics on Facebook that he's taken the boys away to the seaside for a few days. He says they seem to be coping but it's still early days. Apparently, she took ill on Sunday and was rushed to Walsgrave and then on Monday blue-lighted to Queen Elizabeth Renal Unit but slipped into a coma and passed away. So sudden.

Just awful for you all
Her Family will be massively hurtlng as well
Time will heal but it'll be a trying time for the kids
Sure your son and all the extended Family will pull together to compensate
B
Life is just so random the way the cards are dealt
Chin up best wishes Houch .
