    On Sunday 2 September I braced myself for grief. From a few days before I knew what was coming. Six months since he took his final breath. I lit all his candles, and I kneeled down in front of my photos, ‘the shrine’ to him. I was sad. As I spoke to him I shed a tear. But I didn’t...

    I am a daddy’s girl; his little princess and mini-me. My mum knows this, and over the last 18 months she has watched as my world shattered around me; as I dedicated my every moment to care for him, and then my every tear as I grieved the loss of my first true love. My parents seperated when...

    On 12 November 1986 I laid eyes on my first love. On 1 March 1986, nine months earlier I had been at his wedding. I was nothing more than the size of a peanut; just starting to grow the fingers that I would wrap around his, and the lips that would kiss him so lovingly for the next 25 years were just...

    03 March 2012 On his first day of testing out his new magic powers he sent me a shooting star. 04 March 2012 Every day since I have seen a rainbow. For the first few days it appeared on the carpet outside my bedroom, reflecting off a nearby mirror. I began to fear the day I didn't...

    02 March 2012 A story shared between a father and a daughter. A story for the past. For the present. And for the future. As a young girl he read The Magic Faraway Tree stories to me at bedtime.

    02 March 2012 I held his hand. I kissed his hand. I begged him not to leave me. I told him I needed him. But more importantly I told him I loved him. He is my hero. He is the Guide and the Weight of My World. He is my everything. And I am his mini-me. I held his hand. He took his final breath...

    Is it ok to feel happy? Is it ok to feel excited? Maybe its just a high from all the jelly babies. I woke up with that same Monday morning feeling, is the weekend really over again already? Just another day at work. I enjoy my job, I enjoy my friends... and most importantly its a distraction. They...
