My Lovely Wife Julie - Home again

Hi Sadman, strangely I got a lot of comfort from having my dad's ashes at home with me. I felt he was still around me then. It was hard though when the time came to have his ashes interred. It felt like I was losing him all over again.

Enjoy your beer and chocolate. Don't know if it's one combination I would enjoy though.

Take care now.  Christine xx

Hi Sad Man,

Hell hurting mate and wish I was as strong as you, hope your trip to Italy salves some wounds - never met you or Julie - but with you if thats ok or you need some company. Hugs to you and leon - he on the trip too ?

Hi Sadman and Leon

Julie has chosen some lovely places and will be with you forever.

My brother-in-law died in the January before Dave was diagnosed in the March 2009, his wife still has his ashes beside her, and her mums are in a large plant pop in the garden so she can take her with her if ever she moves. I find that strange, but comforting at the same time.

Choccy and cold milk, not sure about the beer!!

Hi Stuart,

I hope the beer and chocolate were good! Julie has picked lovely places to be laid to rest, I hope the trip to Italy brings you some peace and some happy memories of Julie.

Thinking of you, Vikki xxx

Good morning Stuart, hope you are coping - today is a new day.  I hope Julie's ashes are giving you comfort.  Is it really necessary to get rid of her clothes so soon?  My dad died when I was 9 and I got immense comfort wearing, holding, smelling his clothes, especially his read knitted waistcoat which he always wear (he was a jaz player - you know the type, red waistcoat?).  Please don't get rid of anything to do with Julie until you are ready to finally let her go and I hate the term "get rid". its so crasse.  Anyway, its not going to rain today so make sure you take yourself outself into Julie's garden and enjoy the peace with her spirit.  Love Ann x
