Feels like the past few days have just been a constant list of to-do's, speaking to DWP, bank, housing association, funeral director... Friends have been fantastic - sadly for them, I have a number of friends who have been in the same position, so they know how hard this is. Feeling a bit lost now - saw or spoke to my Dad every day, and now just have the pictures (which are happy pictures at least), and I still talk to his pictures, but they can't give you a hug. Working up to the funeral on Friday...

Flo,

I'm so sorry for your loss. Gary left me on 17-12-2010. I did all the most urgent things like arranging the funeral and dealing with urgent notifiications to DWP, bank and occupational pension people in a daze of numbness.

Now, one month on, the shock is wearing off and grief is setting in with a vengeance. I just go from day to day, each day setting myself a target of completing the most important job and any others that I can manage. I find having some sort of structure, however loose to mly day helps.

Looking back, the last four weeks are a blur, but, unbelievable as it seems somehow i have survived this far.

Wishing you stregnth to celebrate our dad's life and achievements on Friday.

Daffie
