Bootsy - I love this - 

Hi lost my hubby 10 sept 2019 and this week has been so bad ..I really thought I was doing ok but I feel like I am falling apart now .i kept busy all the time and think I was trying to block it out also lost my Dad 5 weeks befor my hubby 

I have had strange dreams this week as well one looking for hubby and when I find him he says to go now as he knows I will be ok others there is old war planes dropping bombs all around me .

Also found at lot of white feathers in a half circle round my chair in garden put the radio on in new car and fist song was one played at his funeral .then my son stared collage this week one teacher fist name same as hubbys and others teachers name same as my Dads 

sorry to go on but a really strange week I think I am just really reliseing that hubby is really gone x

hi,

funny enough I too have had a few coincidences reasently. The first was a neighbour put some photos through my letterbox taken of Paul and I at a party she had at her house about 11 years ago. There was a note saying " I thought you might like these but hope they don't upset you."  Strangly enough it did sort off. Mostly because seeing Paul looking handsome, slim and suntaned made me realise that  when I think of Paul it is  always how he looked in the last few months of life.....after two and half years of continuous cancer treatment had taken its toll...

The 2nd incident was similar in that a package arrived in the post about a week later from my sister.....with a note saying "I hope these don't upset you". Inside were photos of past family gatherings. All of us looking young, happy and carefree including some of my mother. She had no idea about the previous photos. 

I am so grateful for them and have put some of them out to remind myself of the real Paul. My bad memories have now been replace with good, happy images.

A strange few weeks for me too but the analogy of glitter and grief posted by Alison has really helped me get my head around the process of grief...

Love to all. Kathy X

I like that pic

Hi my husband passed away 2 years ago tomorrow. I have been crying all week too. Why the 2nd year tougher than first I have no idea but if you want to share tissues I'm withyou

Aww bless you  xx 

And Christmas tree needles, lol 

That made me think, Christmas tree needles. I bought a proper Christmas tree last Christmas, knowing it was likely to be Ric's last and tried to make it special, despite decorating and doing the covid clean, still finding the odd one!!! 

Strange isn't it. Xxx
