My heart is breaking for you knowing Matt was in pain and needed his mum, how awful for you to hear that, Iām so sorry.
Scotts best friend is a soldier too, I text him often to see he is ok as I know Scott used to worry about him.
The pain we are all going through is devastating.

Hi Maddie, would love to meet up too. We are north west of Inverness but when flights are back to normal I can fly to Birmingham or Bristol.
I am meeting Helen in June when she is staying near me with friends for a holiday.
We need to help each other through this.

Thinking about meeting up ā¦ maybe July? If we could all say what dates we are free in July we could hopefully find a date that suits everyone? It would be lovely to get together. I could meet up from the 2nd to the 20th xxx
Hi yes 3rd onwards for us xxx
Hi Victoria and all. Unfortunately, with childcare commitments and very busy with cottage bookings, the summer is not a good time for me. I would need to be leaving a meet up till around September but I will look forward to hearing all about your weekend when it happens.

Hello Anne,
Iām just reading your post, and my heart is breaking all over again, I am so sorry that you knew that, I cannot adequately express my thoughts to you. Like Scott Sam had a very best friend Jason, who always said I have a brother from another mother. Wherever you saw Sam you saw Jason and vice versa. Jason stayed here with Sam as he lay in a coma and would keep talking to him tears running down his face, in fact he was here more than at home throughout. He has not long had a little boy with his girlfriend and rang me to tell me he had named him Samuel after Sam. In Roman numerals on the inside of his arm he has
Sams dateāsLove Helen
Lovely photo of the 2 boys Oh if we could only turn back the clock .maddie xxx
Dear Helen, such a lovely photo of the boys and oh so precious. It is lovely that Sam had such a close friendship xxx
I sat up quite late again last night and was looking through Gemmaās Twitter feed. I was never on Twitter so did not read it while she was here with us. Gemma was passionate about animal rights and had found many kindred spirits on Twitter.
Although I was tearful at first, I carried on and was surprised. It is difficult to explain but it was just so āGemmaā that I felt very close to her. I also looked at her photos on Flicker which I have not been able to do before. Mainly photos of flowers and wildlife. She was very talented and I am so very proud of her. xxx
Hello everyone just fell out with my daughter, I canāt believe it has happened , her husband blames me me for her depression , they donāt care about mine . But I have told her , letās have a break from one another . I donāt want it to be this way , but I donāt know what else to do .xxx
Oh Maddie thatās awful for you. You shouldnāt be blamed for another personās depression. The situation that we have all found ourselves in is stressful enough without having to deal with this. I hope things can be resolved in time. Sending hugs xx
Iām so sorry to hear that Maddie
You are already going through so much, you cannot be held responsible for your daughters depression.
I hope you have people you can talk to and who are supportive
Anne
