So true, I still cry at the drop of a hat. I’m quiet a few years down that long road but I now know I will never get over him leaving and the pain does not go away you just try to cope. That’s the way it is for me.
So true,the first anniversary of Willis is coming up in November,not one day goes by without me crying,I will never get over losing my boy but life goes on or so they say,stay strong and never forget,I hope you all have a comforting weekend.

Last night I realised I hadn’t cried for days and that made me cry. I shall never stop missing my husband, brother but most of all my darling son. He should not have been taken. Time does not heal it just helps us to mask the sorrow. It must be the deepest cut of all.
I no wot you mean,it could be a song or a TV program but mostly look alikes,every where I go I see my boy,the pain never goes just numbs out, been nearly 1 year now 23 of Nov times just gone ,the question is I wonder if this emptyness is a life long thing ,have a peaceful night and smile at the stars.

I fear it is a life long thing, Sorrow, guilt (for what) pain all soften with time but the emptiness and sadness is always there. Part of me died that Saturday afternoon when we got the knock on the door. Ten years now but suddenly that wave sweeps over me and, well I’m sure you know. So in answer to your question we learn to cope with the pain but the emptiness and sadness is always there. I miss him so much but I learnt to get on with life and smile for him. We’re all different but that’s the way it is for me. Take care and try to smile at something today, that sounds silly but it’ll help you cope.
This is so true for nearly 3 years for me and I am still broken and think of him all the time. Sometimes it is really hard to keep going day after day.

I have this thing with my girls where when we see a rainbow 
that’s Willis popping by to say hello, every day I look for that rainbow and most days it ends in disappointment but every now and then I see one I smile and cry especially when the girls go dad there’s Willis,I know now that grief is eternal we just find our own way of coping with it,the one thing we all share,I pray today is a good one for u and maybe you will see your rainbow.
