Episode Synopsis

Losing a child is one of the most devastatting experiences a parent can go through. The grief that folllows can be overwhelming and it's difficult to know how to deal with the emotional pain.  In this episode, I interview Cynthia Spillman who lived through this nightmare. She woke up on the 20th of November 1987, not knowing her life was about to tragically change. After a lorry hit her car causing it to catch fire, trapped and powerless, she watched her 5-year-old son burn to death, while her daughter survived  but was severely disfigured. We talk about her difficult journey and explore the complex process of dealing with grief after losing a child. Join us to hear her story and how she managed to rebuild her life.
