A CHILD who was hit by a bus while visiting his gran in hospital has tragically died as heartbreaking tributes from his family pour in.
Four-year-old Jan was struck down at Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother (QEQM) Hospital in Margate, Kent , at around 4pm on Thursday.
An air ambulance was called to the scene and a cordon put in place.
Little Jan, the youngest of five children, tragically died just six days after his cousin’s mum passed away.
A GoFundMe was set up by the boy’s mum to help pay for his funeral.
It reads: “My name is Azaria, today on the 7th of August 2025, me and my family went to visit our mum at Margate hospital.
“And my son who is only four-years-old fell under a bus and he died immediately.
“I am so lost, he was my son, my most beautiful little Jan. I don’t know what to do I can’t believe you are gone from me.
“I can’t believe they couldn’t save you, I can’t believe this happened.
“I didn’t even get to tell you how much I love you.
“Please if anyone can help us to make his burial as beautiful as he was please I will be so grateful.
“Everyone is devastated, but that word doesn’t feel like enough to explain how we are all feeling.
‘Our sweet funny boy with a cheeky smile’
“Our sweet funny boy with a cheeky smile that could make anyone’s heart full. The smile that we can’t see again. Can’t hold him. Can’t cuddle him. Can’t hear him. Can’t have him sleeping in my bed tonight.
“But I can try to give him the best and most comfortable burial. My baby I wish you were in my bed tonight cuddling. I love you my boy.”
Jan’s cousin Kyia, 32, told The Sun the family is “beyond broken” having lost a baby of the family in “another horrific way” so soon after her mum died.
She said in a touching tribute: “I can’t believe I’m even writing this.
“He was just four-years-old, the youngest of five. His mum and four older siblings along with the family are beyond devastated.
“Not only did I lose my mum six days ago, now but we have now lost one of our babies of the family in the most horrific of ways.
“I have no words what is even happening to my family at this moment in time, it’s unbearable.”
A spokesman for Kent Police said: “Witnesses, CCTV and dashcam footage are sought by officers investigating a fatal collision in Margate.
“Kent Police was called to Ramsgate Road shortly after 4pm on Thursday 7 August 2025 following a report of an incident involving a bus and a pedestrian outside Queen Elizabeth Queen Margaret Hospital.
“The bus, a white single decker vehicle, was travelling near the entrance to the A&E department. It is reported that the pedestrian, a four year old boy, left the hospital on foot and a collision took place.
“The child was taken inside the hospital and a short while later was sadly confirmed deceased. His next of kin has been informed.”
Kyia’s mum Taz Green “suddenly and unexpectedly” died the day before turning 52 – two months after her gran passed away in yet another tragedy for the family.
Taz, a mother-of-five , was discovered dead at her home in Ramsgate, Kent, by her teenage son on Sunday morning.
Paramedics were called to Taz’s address at roughly 11am.
Despite their best efforts, the grandmother-of-one was pronounced dead at her home.
Her family are now waiting on the results of an autopsy to uncover the circumstances surrounding Taz’s tragic death.
Taz leaves behind her husband Peter, her five children Kyia, Jack, Jay, Kian and Kaelen.
Kyia said: “We are in such desperate need of our mum.
“Mum was such a free spirited, life of the party kind of wonder woman – none of us ever thought she would not be here.
“My mum loved horses and anyone who knows mum knew that and we would love to have my mum a horse drawn carriage because she was a queen and she deserves the very best send off.
“We all feel helpless and I don’t know what to do without her.”
