Hi Dee
How incredibly understanding you are and I think it's so kind you want to reach out to your sons friend,
Maybe speak to your son first and say that you want to check in and maybe can be another person that he can reach out to, we all know how lonely and difficult this journey can be x
Maybe even give him the number for LFF helpline x

Thank you .my son hasn't read the article and only has one piece of information.Hes only just turned 16 and his friend just turned 18 after what happened with his dad I don't know how he would take that's why is so difficult to decide what to do
Hi Dee, it's just a thought but would you be able to reach out to your sons friends mum or dad. I know I would have appreciated someone with lived experience reaching out to me. His parent might then in turn then be able to pass on your support.
A couple nearby us experienced the same thing many years ago. I glance at the lady many times prying she would perhaps confide or offer me words of knowledgable comfort, but she never has.
She does go out her way to speak to me though and exchange a few words, so perhaps her way of acknowledgment. Perhaps she doesn't want to rake up her past. But it so would have made me not feel so isolated in those early days.
You have in your mind its such a foul 'rare' crime, no one else could have possibly experienced it, but sadly as we find out each and every day on this forum that's not the case is it?

You learn SO much on this journey - it changes you and certainly re-shapes your thoughts.
