Thanks for your kind words and thoughts Denise, I really do appreciate them, and apologies for being slow in responding. I have tried all ways to get counselling quicker, but all to no avail. I'm waiting on LOROS to call me with an appointment for next week. This will be for an initial "one...

Not yet Denise. I'm very very frustrated by this as you can probably imagine. I can't remeber whether I'd told you that CRUSE had intimated that it may be as long as 6 months to start counselling with them so I contacted LOROS in Leicester, which is one of the places Angela was cared for...

I'm so grateful for the replies I've had on here, and the offers of friendship and support. I spoke about the apparent long(ish) wait for Cruse to offer actual counselling, and I've now spoken to my GP about that. His response was initially one of surprise, because he didn't realise that...

How wish i could hang this round my neck so people who say your doing well could see how i feel. Dont think I do not feel because you see no tears. A river rages deep inside of grief and loss and fears. Just because I do not cry now don't think my hearts not broken. I keep inside the misery of...
