    Sad to read this I was devastated when I lost my mum still hits me like a brick when I least expect it. The most important thing is to give yourself time to grieve and everyone does that differently. Hope you have someone to give you a hug and help you get through this horrible time xx

    Bless you. I hope you will be OK.

    I am so sorry for you too sweetie. :( (((HUGS)))

    Thank you jaylee, I appreciate it x x

    It has been (and still is) so so hard. :( He was my best friend and the person I could turn to for anything, I was a real daddy's girl. Everything is still so raw right now.

    Sorry Faith, didn't mean to hijack your thread. I just had to post to pass on my sympathies, and to say I'm thinking of you.

    Take care of yourself x x

  • Oh Faith I am sorry but as others have said I'm sure your mum knew you were there.

    Take one day at a time and don't worry about asking people for help or taking up offers of help.

    I am so sorry to hear of your loss faith. Your mum sounds like an incredible person. I am sure her life was made special by all the love you shared. Take care
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.
