I’m in the middle of watching a series that was on ITV2 called ‘Kelsey Parker: life after Tom’ which is all about Tom Parker’s widow and how she is dealing with her grief (Tom was a member of the band ‘the wanted’ and was diagnosed with a brain tumour before he died in 2022 aged 33, his wife is a similar age).
It’s a big tearjerker in places but it is worth a watch as they have two very young children and it’s how she is dealing with everything now.
Just watching the 2nd episode now. I must say, what a brave girl to document her journey, and being left with two little infants; I cannot begin to imagine…
From my perspective, it’s made me realise just how bad my situation is; I lost my love in August, not been to bed since; slept for months on the sofa and more recently purchased a blow up bed; I have to admit, it’s the most depressing thing imaginable…
I haven’t left my home for 2 months plus! This makes me realise that I need to change…
House on the market is still my plan; my Martin would hate to see me now & I will use this to kick my ass into some sort of normality…
It is just the most hateful journey, I miss him more & more each day; I know that everyone’s journey is different, but I feel I am stuck in a loop, and try as I may, I can’t make it stop…
Hoping I can find the strength to make my Martin proud…
Love to all in this most horrific journey…xx:broken_heart:

Yes, I use the desire to make Richard proud of me as my inspiration to do many things. It has made me get on with house maintenance, looking after the garden, feeding myself and my daughter, dealing with all the necessary admin and vehicle care. The list goes on but in all that Richard is my inspiration.
Gain your strength from that love.
Sending you some of mine. xxx
