I bought this on the internet and it arrived on Friday which was 7 weeks to the day of the passing of my lovely wife. It is a replica of a sculpture on the shores of lake Geneva. It represents how I feel after losing my wife and my daughter deciding she doesn’t want to be in my life.

Hi @StuartC
I hope the sculpture is a starting point for you to rebuild your life that you didn’t choose, a space for you to enrich your life and to open your heart to new experiences and hopefully building bridges with your daughter to help you be whole again. You may not be filled with what you once had but hopefully you can refill with whatever it is will make you a new you. Xx
@Katyh Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately my daughter has chosen a path in her life where I can’t see a return. My wife and I tried to reach out to her but she doesn’t want to know and now my wife is gone. Thankfully I have a son who is giving me a reason to carry on.

Family can be difficult and it’s so unfortunate that you have this going on as well as the loss of your wife. Just let her know that you love her and your doors always open 
It’s good to hear that you’ve a son you are close to and a purpose to carry on. You will find new purposes in life, as hard as that sounds at the moment. We will find happiness in this life again again, it’ll just be a struggle to get there xx

It happens ya know sadly. I had a lot of trouble with my son … he married a controlling girl /woman now … all you can do is concentrate your efforts on your other child and as @Katyh says leave the door open and its up to them isnt it ?
That sculpture describes exactly how we feel doesnt it ? With a massive hole in our lives xx
