    Have washing to go sort before kids can get into their beds, not that they have any intention of going to them yet, but needs to be sorted.

    Scaredy - meant to say try some tiger balm on your neck. I have been using it and it does help. It burns but in a nice way!

    It makes you grateful for your lot when you hear sad news like that. How do the parents come to terms with this? I hope that the family receives all the help they need.

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    As a parent I know that guilt would be the worst thing for me. I would go over the past few days/weeks/months wondering what signs I had missed; why she didn't feel she could come and talk to me; why she didn't talk to someone else; what I had done/not done. It would tear me apart.
