Loss of our son aged 27

Good glad to hear it. for me it’s morning time it’s 9:30 a.m. and at the moment I’m not okay but I’m hoping as the day goes on I feel better. Right now I’m going out to get coffee and go to Grief hill and have a good morning cry. Like I said morning suck for me more so on the weekends. Hope you have a good time today!!

Found a receipt in my bag that I’d picked up in Andrew’s flat. It was for £30 worth petrol and on it he’d written “Hair…tyre…2pm mums hose.” Dated 17th March. 3 days later he was gone.:sob::sob::sob:.
He had his hair cut…he looked so handsome…he’d had a new tyre fitted and he’d been round ours setting up a new pressure washer for us. He’d filled up with petrol for a trip to the coast with a friend. 3 days and every thing was normal and happy…only 3 days to the worst day in our lives. Oh how I miss my lovely son :weary::weary::cry::cry::cry:.

. I can say I enjoyed it! That’s a first for any social occasion with lots of people since my daughter died. It was a really community feel event and I’m glad I went. One of my grandaughters came and my son in law, it was a tonic to see them smiling and joining in. I guess it was made easier cos I knew I could dive back in my house if I found it difficult. It’s a step in the right direction for me. I did one of the things I was anxious about and it turned out ok. Might well be back to misery again tomorrow but today was OK. Better than I expected and that’s good enough for me. How has your day been? Xx

It just brings it all home to you…how quickly life can change. One day everything is fine and then “bang” your whole world is shattered.
It’s not been a good day today.
Love to all…Sue xxxx

Sue has not been a good day for me either. I have been crying and sobbing. I haven’t even really been thinking about anything it just came on and been with me most of the day.:disappointed:. Maybe tomorrow will be a little better day for both of us.

Hi all
I haven’t posted for some time but I do read your posts. I have been really ill which scuppered all my jubilee plans. I was hoping to keep busy and not wallow in my grief but I have found myself alone lying on the sofa sobbing for my girl. It’s occasions like these that I feel her loss so much. She would have been here looking after me, and she wouldn’t have minded at all, she was so kind and caring. I am hoping that I will feel better tomorrow as I am so low. I have a cough that you can hear down the street. Enjoy whatever you are doing today. Deborah :heart:
