    Sorry to hear that happened to your dad. It's all so sad :(

    There was a car crash near here Monday and the boy who died was only 20. To make it a million times worse, his mum died on the 12th november from cancer. He was going to work when it happened and it was his first day back at work since his mum died. He was an only child as well, feel so so sorry for his dad :(


    OMG That is really sad...Some people seem to have everything go wrong...That poor man must be in bits...:o

    ughh run out of things to do tidy flat done christmas tree is up cant decorate till OH is avaliable otherwise he'll moan... sorry probably not best time to say.

    Thats awful about the 20 yr old it scares me to think that people younger are passing away I know of a family it happened to recently. v. hard to deal with for anyone and would never wish it on anyone.

    So cheerful thoughts we don't want a depressing dec!
    A big thank you to all those who post on the forum and make it a worthwhile place!!!:j
