    Good morning all...

    A bit of a tough read back with tears in my eyes...

    lots of love to ILTS and to Bubbs and her sister.

    I was talking to a friend too on Saturday and had a very similar conversation about grief...and believe me it is so unpredictable and difficult to deal with...it tends to hit when you least expect it and when you least want or need it to...and it can cut you down in an instant.
    But the positive is once you know that...you can sometimes overcome the triggers or at least be prepared a little for them.

    This week our DS starts his AS resits from last year and in a couple of weeks moves on to the current A2 exams....he is in bits with nerves and at a total loss because his little wing man is not beside him...

    Grief is a *******.

    And for you, I always make it a priority to get the extra time candies on timer levels, everything else seems to fall into place (though I do not know what the requirements are on 1723, at this rate I never will :mad: )

    I was thinking about yopmail but as you get entered into a draw supposing you won either

    • A £500 voucher valid for booking selected flights, hotels or holiday packages on lastminute.com
    • A flight and hotel package for two people for up to two nights in Barcelona, Budapest or Prague

    And they contacted you and you didn't check your email :eek:

    We just have, cough cough, rather a lot of email addresses between us ;)


    Do what I do - forward all the odd email addresses to a single 'collection' address, so you don't miss anything regardless of the address it is sent to.

    Thank you all....I think I'm just on a downer....yes I hurt for what we have been through but it has suddenly hit home that as a mum I can't take away the pain that is hurting DS too.

    One day at time...one exam at a time and we will get through....but sometimes my resolve slips and my head just wants to rewind to a better place x
