The little things that break you

@Cee I’ve put all the oddities in plastic container, that no one will understand why I’m keeping - catheter contents, her last 5fu chemo pump, unwashed nightie she died in - to be revisited on those days when you don’t want to remember because of the heartache, but have to, to hold on to her

Yes its important to keep what we want to keep. Im gonna do what a lady suggested at some point and get a lovely box to keep all his little things in ! I just really bad at facing up to it all tbh… very hard to accept hes not even here for a start off … my bereavment counsellor said you do what you want , when you want and when youre ready x

Yeah me too - the items in the box are things I needed to preserve, like nightie I sealed to preserve the scent along with pillow slip.
Everything else in the house - clothes, shoes, bathroom, perfumes etc is exactly as it was.
No where near ready to even consider moving or packing things away. Can’t see that far at moment
