Evening Jim, I have just watched 90 minutes in heaven. Such an interesting film and very thought provoking. I found the film beautiful and comforting. There is so much we don’t understand and don’t know but I do believe in an afterlife. Whether it will be like Don’s version though?
I realised as I watched the film that I have the book somewhere on one of my bookshelves and have never read it but I guess it is pretty true to the film.
Thank you for bringing it to our attention x

Hi kate,
How lovely that Brooke has a little friend and although different circumstances they have things in common, i can imagine how it warmed your heart hearing them giggling and having fun

Thankyou Michelle. Yes we do get stronger and enjoy things again. We have all helped each other so much on this site
Hope your beautiful daughters are doing well in their chosen careers.
Jemma is just back from Tuscany where she was running an art class for a week.
So proud of her achievements. From not being able to get an art related job after her degree, she has created an empire and is so well known in the Scottish art world. She is awsome!
Love always,
Kate x

Hi Michelle
I’ve actually seen this film before but it was on the other day so sat through it again It’s a very thought provoking film. I’m the least religious believing person you could meet. But I do believe in the afterlife. To me they are not necessarily connected. The reason I say that is on the two occasions I went to see a clairvoyant. She told me things she couldn’t possibly have known. And very personal things that only me and my son knew. So watch the film. And see what you think
Take care
Jim

Thats wonderful news kate am so pleased for her, we are all in North Devon at the moment and its been lovely just the four of us lots of memories as this is where we used to come when they were young, we all feel Matt’s presence and know he is with us , Isabel starts her new job as a Primary school in September and Aimee was working for property Company but it was so stressful so we persuaded her to leave as it was making her ill so she is having a bit of breathing space atm, we are so proud of them both and know Matt would be too, sending you lots of love from sunny Devon

Hi Jen. My son passed in his sleep on 14th July so I can relate to the shock. I miss him so much. I have 2 older sons one of whom lost his own son in May. I am rattling around my house on my own. Part of me wants to sell up and get somewhere smaller but all my memories of Dan are here. He had cerebral palsy and i still have all his special equipment apart from his bed which was collected 2 days after he passed! I hope things get easier in time for everyone going throughthe same.
