This is an organisation begun in January 1969 by bereaved parents, in the UK, whose children had died. They discovered that through talking to each other about their children and how they felt about their deaths, they found that they were more able to cope with their tragic losses.
The Compassionate Friends is now an international stretching all around the world. To find your nearest branch or chapter go to the UK website: http://www.tcf.org.uk. There you can join the Forum and liaise with other parents having to endure life without a much loved child.
