Oh gosh. So sorry to hear that, @Monkeychunky I do hope you are ok. That's the reason I said in my post about our experiences possibly helping others. Like @bluebellation has just said, mine would include alcoholic parents. Not the death of a child, but early and tragic death of my sister. Among other things.

I don't want this thread to be something that opens wounds. But if anyone wants to use it for support, that would be good if it helps them. to you both and thanks to others for their contributions. It confirms what I was thinking. (I have 4 days off with DD and this usually means thinking / musing time for me. Helps to write things down too. Mumsnet can be a godsend at times for not feeling alone)
