Shocking deaths?
Has anyone had a family member who died under shocking circumstances?The man who would have been my father-in-law was a hit-and-run victim when my future husband was just 12 years old.
The police identified the driver, but no charges were ever bought due to "lack of any witnesses".

Just my Mum, who most members on here will remember. Mum suffered a brain haemorrhage on our cruise, just 2 days after my 60th birthday. After more than 3 weeks in an Athens hospital she was repatriated to the UK for her life support to be switched off 5 days later.It was a traumatic and shocking time for me and the family.

My maternal grandmother died after bleeding to death after a failed back street abortion in 1951. Even today even though abortion is legal in the UK thanks to the efforts of David Steel, women don't have an automatic right to have one - they have to pass a few `tests` first before the procedure is carried out.

A friend his name was John Luper, he and his family were robbed at home. His wife and family were tied up in another room. It's not really known what happened to John but he was found dead. He was diabetic and there was evidence the gang had fed him marmalade.The gang have never been caught, there is more to this case but it was never proved so I can't really write it here, a terrible waste of a life though. Details of it are online if you are interested.

Tasha died unexpectedly, a stroke in her kitchen, Grace found her which has been hard for a little girl.My great uncle had a fit and fell into a fireplace sadly burned himself and the house down.
My youngest sister died only 3 years old, she fell from a climbing frame, they changed the flooring there a few years later it's all soft now where the concrete was a killer.
My last baby, I'd had a number of miscarriages but this pregnancy had gone perfectly, we were so excited, but when he was born he was so pale and almost transparent, so delicate, he died in my arms two hours later.
God this is a depressing thread
