This story was submitted to the site by Babyghost56 from New Brunswick, Canada.
I was a married women with 3 young boys. One an infant, a five year old and a six and a half year old son. I was taking a hairdressing course at the time, and would stop at my mother's on the way home for coffee. There was something really bothering me about my five year old son that I tried to explain to my mother that I couldn't put my finger on what it was.

This gut feeling became problematic for me to the point of crying and I just did not know why, this went on for a month. On a Friday evening my mother and I had agreed to go to bingo that night. I had to call her to let her know I would have to pick up a few groceries before hand.
My mother's home has two stories each with a phone that had two separate phone numbers. When I called there was no answer but a loud burning.....as if I were listening to an open forest fire with the snapping and cracking of the wood. I was memorized by the sound so much so that the operator came on the line and asked if I needed assistance, I asked if she could check the number I was trying to reach, she replied with there was something wrong with the line.

I panicked, I thought my mother's house was on fire. I looked at the top of the stairs where my five year old stood and told him to make sure your father bathes you before bed. I ran to my car, I was so upset, I drove through stop signs and red lights. When I reached her house.....there was nothing. I went inside only to be greeted by mother with her company. I mentioned about her phone lines, she already knew and said she couldn't call to inform me that she couldn't go to bingo. I was just relieved.

So I went to do my few groceries and decided to do something I had never done before which was go to bingo by myself and so I did. When I was approaching my home, I noticed a Hugh plume of smoke in the night sky.....it was my house that burnt that day and I lost my five year old son, the very one that I was so upset about. I was as close to being told as I was allowed to be.

The reason why I always stayed home with my kids and never left them with anyone. Not worth the money or the fun going out if I had to worry about the kids. I only felt good it I was home and watching them.

I'm sorry you lost your son. I wish these signs were way more specific and couldn't be ignored/overlooked. I keep having a feeling like i shouldn't leave my babies totally alone with anyone, even their own father and grandmother(his mom). He is pressuring me hard to get a job, which means him or his mother would have to watch the babies while i work, instead of me being a full time mom. I don't trust his mom, who talks subtle shyt to my first baby about me(right in front of my face, thinking it goes over my head) and called me "trailer trash" to him in a text behind my back(as if she's class...
