Oh Kate he is adorable , I sure he will
bring you a little happiness in the painful few weeks ahead . Michelle , Matts resting place is so beautiful , you must feel him so close when you visit . Chris I can relate to Busy . It deffinatly takes over my mind . Just got back from
Greece , it was such a welcome break after the last 4 horrendous months . It did start texting Sarah and Aimee before we went away as I didn’t want to go with the awful situation of not talking . And she did come back , I was so relieved, and Aimee said she would pop round at some time . Haven’t seen her since Xmas . Sarah seems quite well , despite having a pain in her collar bone , she rang hospital yesterday and they didn’t seem
to worried , they said it was where the tumult was . But I suppose we have to exspect all these unusual things now as her body won’t be normal for quite a long time . Take care everyone . Sending hugs to all Maddie xx

Oh what a beautiful day Sarah actually came this afternoon and popped in. card for tomorrow . She looked so well and loved the new cropped haircut . But atleast we have her X. She has been to hell and back telling us everything . It was a lovely move . That’s all that matters now . I could not stand losing another Daughter . We have been to visit Dawn and tell her I hope she came with us to Greece . The night we got back her picture slipped off the dresser . I so know she is with us every step of the way . After seeing Jackie with 75 questions , Dawn asked us one , she asked , do you feel me around you . We were gopsmaked . Unfortunately I don’t . But she said she.visit once a day . . We are going to see Jackie again in Decembeour 4 th visit . And it’s the best thing ever ? As we know was there with us , if anyone would like to see Jackie , it might take a few months as she is so busy , I can put you in touch with her . Believe me it’s the best thing ever . . With love Maddie xx

Thats lovely to read Maddie. So happy for you.
Today i took Brooke to the beach. She is the image of her Mummy from.the back. She moves in exactly the same way. It was like watching Lisa aged 7 at the same beach. Just amazing.

Love to you.

Oh Maddie that is wonderful news. It is great to hear that Sarah came to visit u. I am sure Dawn had a hand in the visit. Wow that Dawn had a question for u. I went to see a medium when i first lost Conor. But haven’t been back. I would like to. Feel scared with all the turmoil that surrounds everything x

Hi everyone, it is my grandson’s birthday today and he came over for lunch. I am so tearful today … so sad for him that he doesn’t have his mum here and I know he misses her especially on his birthday. It has really hit me hard.


We have Charlie too until this evening.
We are going on holiday tomorrow but today has floored me so much … the unfairness of it for those two beautiful boys. This photo of Gemma and Coren was taken just 3 weeks before we lost her :disappointed: x

I am so sorry, both for you and your grandson, as you miss Gemma so much, and no doubt, always will. It’s so sad that she is no longer here.
Obviously, I don’t know you or your family, but I just wanted to tell you that I thought she was a very beautiful lady.
I lost my husband three years ago, and although I am sure it’s nothing like losing a child, it still hurts like h…
Life’s a bit*h sometimes and the awful thing is, we all have to go through it.
Hugs,
AnnR

I know exactly how you are feeling Victoria. My heart breaks again and again whenever we attend a school event and the children are looking for their Mummies and Daddies. We always go as Jamie is working but i feel so sad Lisa isn’t here for her beautiful child.
Love to you, dear dear friend.

Oh Victoria , I am so sorry you have had a bad day before you go on your lovely holiday tomorrow . Such a lovely photo of Coran and Gemma . . Why is life so cruel . Sarah has just text a minute ago . She was meeting up with some friends today whom she has not seen since a diognose . Just to find out that her friend has pancreatic cancer that has spread to her liver , she only found out yesterday , she is the same age as Sarah . I know every time Sarah hears things like this , she panicks , as I know she is worried her dreaded C might come back . What a life that we have to live on tenterhooks every day . Victoria , enjoy your holiday , as I know once you get away , things will settle , I know every time we went away after losing Dawn , I started to cry , I always felt guilty that I should not be going away . But our love ones I know now are always with us no matter where we are . So have a great time , will be thinking of you and Bill . Love Maddie . Xxx
