Thinking of you. We have our wee granddaughter here today. She is such a tonic. Makes us all smile and gives us a reason for getting up in the morning. Brooke is Lisa’s gift to us all although she didnt know it. She seems fine and a well balanced wee girl. Hope her Daddy feels she is helping him through this too. He adores her and I am sure she will wipe the tears from his eyes as she is his shining light.
Hope your Sunday is filled with love and peace.xx
Dear Kate,
You are so right. Gemma’s boys give me a reason to go on and I always think if they can carry in then so can I and I love them so much.
Have a peaceful weekend filled with love xxx
Hello all

Still play with Lego and watching My Little Pony on Netflix after having made cuo cakes with Auntie Jemma. Lovely day.xx
Dear Helen,
I am sure you will see Sam in your grandchildren as they grow xxx
To everyone here who are supporting each other.
Awful day yesterday. Cried and cried all day on and off. Maybe its Mondays, the start of another week without Lisa. I went shopping in town and was looking for her waiting for me in a cafe and imagining her folding the buggy and getting Broke in the car and saying ‘thankyou Mum for lunch, it was lovely’. It was such an empty feeling that she wasnt there anymore.

I know those feelings so well…Someone on the TV yesterday said (When you lose a child it’s like a light going out)…only you can never switch that light back on.

It was. I just couldn’t pull myself out of it but feel a bit more upbeat today. The sun is shining too.
Love to you. Kate xx
It is exactly like that only the power supply is off permanently with the last beat of their hearts.
Love to you too. Kate xx
Dear Kate , sorry that you had a bad day, it doesn’t take much to trigger us off does it? I couldn’t even put Dawns photos out for 5months as it was too painful looking at her lovely face. I love music and I still cannot play my cds in the car , as I feel so guilty, although I watched the Pet Shop Boys on tv on Sunday , and could not help but sing along . I think John my husband was pleased to hear me sound happy . Again I felt really guilty, as that wasn’t the real me the real me is still grieving for my lovely daughter. Love to you . Maddie xx
I know what you mean. Our Jemma had a book of photos of Lisa Jamie and Brooke made from Brooke’s first days till up to date with their holiday photos before she took I’ll. Brooke has one on her bookcase and we each have ours displayed. I have mine behind my chair and look ar her beautiful eyes each time I turn to get something.
It hurts a lot but I need to see her as she was.
I am constantly humming Faith’s song from Keeping Faith as its haunting but lovely words make me think of Lisa as she was watching that series the night before she died.
Its also trending on the radio too so I have got in the car 3 times recently robot starting to play.
Love to you today also xxxx
That should read and it started to play, not robot but no doubt you got that.xx
Dear Kate,
Thinking of you this morning and hope your day is better.
There is such a huge change in our lives and that creates a line, while we still had our beautiful children with us and after we lost them.
Good days for me now would have been a very bad day before. I hope that makes sense and wish us all as a good a day as we can.
Much love xxx

Thankyou. Yes I feel better today. I had a good cry last night when a close friend phoned to check I was ok. She lost her nephew who was killed in active service in Afghanistan only 19. She gets us.
Keeping busy is the way to deal with it but I have started waking around 3 am thinking about those last days. I know that will fade but it’s awful when the images come.
Love to you too and hope we all have a good day.

Hello kate
Glad you’re feeling more able to cope I understand about those last few days for me it was when he awoke on the thursday morning and was sick. That will stay with me especially when I get low. But like Lisa Sam would expect us to keep going and yes when you’re busy it helps
With love
