    Thank you for your messages my lovelies.

    I know I did post up that he went peacefully, but I could not bring myself to say the reality of it, still he is now at peace and I feel him close to my heart.;)

    I am getting there, still feels strange though, but I suppose that is only natural.

    I know time is a healer, but we will never forget.;)

    Di,

    I am so sorry to hear about your Father's passing and my heart goes out to you. Things do get easier I promise, but you miss them each day more than ever, my dear Mum passed away in February this year after a short illness, she was just 70.

    With sincere sympathy

    Hi Claire

    Thank you honey.:A

    Your lovely words helped lots.

    That is so sad for you as well Claire, your lovely mum was only a year older than my dad, I feel for you too.
    These days that age is still young really isn't it?

    Love Di. XXXX

    Yes it is still considered young and my dear Mum was so fit and active until her illness, I still can't believe now how quick it all was.

    As you know my son has aspergers, he was very close to his Nan, yet has not wanted to, or be able to talk about her death, only this week he has been diagnosed with depression and possibly due not to being allowed (himself) to grieve. Such a difficult one, but hopefully now we will be able to get him some much needed help.

    Stay strong Hunny, allow yourself time to grieve and there will come a time when you will be able to remember your Dad with happy memories instead of sadness. Things do get better, however things are never the same again.

    Big Hugs Clare x x x

    Hi honey.

    That is so sad with your mum being so active prior to her illness as well and with it happening so suddenly, with my dad he have been ill for years and to be honest over the last 10 years when we almost lost him then about 4/5 times he always came back, but not this time...it got too much for him.

    However he was a very strong and very independent man before his illnesses kicked in, but its a blessing now that he is no longer in pain, it was so unbearable seeing him suffer til the end, yet still managed to keep smiling.

    Yes of course your son has Aspergers as well like mine, sorry to hear about the depression side of it honey that must be tough for you all and a worry too with your son being so young, with mine he have suffered with anxiety disorder for a number of years as well, and when we lost dad he was asking questions as he could not really understand, yet down the hospital he got himself worked right up, covered himself up with a jacket, then he hid in the relatives room under the table, could not move him for a while.
    Then came the questions later on.

    Hope things get better for you too honey and your son, bless you both.

    Love and hugs.
