I had fostered for many years. I haven’t decided if it is something I want to continue. There is a possibility that once I do feel I want to carry-on. I will look at shared lives and look after adults with disabilities x

My husband and I didn’t really talk about my life once I was on my own. I always told him my life would be over without him. One thing he did say was to stay in touch with my friends in the states and here because I would need them. Along with my family, which I am.
Sandra - my husband had an omega watch too and loved it. I gave it to his son plus some of his other things to his family. But not that many things. I wear his wedding ring on a chain around my neck.
Wishing everyone a good sleep, or as best they can.
Ron tell Jane we are all thinking of her and look forward to welcoming her back.

I did it by moving all his clothes to a cupboard (though I still keep his fleece jacket hanging by the door). I took the things he hadn’t really worn to a charity shop, but the clothes I remember him in are staying in the cupboard. I know they are there, and it’s comforting, but now I can open the wardrobe without crying.

Got worried earlier when I couldn’t find the thread. I thought you’d all gone off on a jolly without me.
Ron please tell Jane I’m thinking of her and hoping she gets dressings that don’t irritate soon.
Wondering how Tony has been today.
This is the first Monday since my beloved died that I’ve got through till 6pm without shedding tears, I’ve kept myself really busy.
Went for a walk with a friend this morning which helped. My husbands things are pretty much where he left them. I’ve no intention of getting rid of much. Maybe some shoes or coats but not much.
Hope you’ve all had a reasonable day. Lucy x

I still have all of Colins clothes. I have kept some like you on the back of the door which like you say catrin 1, is a comfort.

You made me laugh. Thanks. I am also not one for roughing…
Not sure if anyone else is still up but this is the worst part of the day for me. Used to having a laugh with my husband and watching a comedy before going to sleep. Then a kiss goodnight. It’s so lonely without him. I even just miss him laying in bed beside me
Ron - I am like you in hoping tomorrow is a better day. Feel like I was in the swamp all day today.

I don’t post very much on social media. Today I just wanted to let friends, family and people in the community know which animal charities had been chosen to donate to. The money was collected at R’s celebration of life. The comments have been beautiful. He was a kind, gentle, funny man. He made everyone laugh. He never spoke badly of anyone. I have truly lost a beautiful human being. I will miss to eternity. I have cried the day away.
