3 months

Keep writing. Keep venting on here. Don’t feel you have to try and hide it away. Everyone here knows what you’re going through and ‘gets it’. I count the ‘17ths’ since he died on the 17th of June. Four so far and two and a half weeks to go until the next.

Sending you a big hug xx

Thank you lovely x

Sending warm regards during this very difficult time. I lost my husband 2 weeks ago following a 3 month battle with this dreadful disease.
I try to put one foot forward and the next foot follows. I can’t think beyond that. I know and have faith that going forward this ‘Acute’ pain in my heart and soul will ease.. I hope the same for you.

Sadness came to tea last night
as she’s often done before
but I didn’t let her in this time
I stopped her at the door
“I’m off to meet with friends”, I said
“your timing isn’t right
I can’t allow your atmosphere
it’s not the place tonight”
but sadness wouldn’t take the hint
her manners lack finesse
her pace was slow and heavy
yet she kept up nonetheless
and even when I took my place
amongst my laughing friends
she squeezed herself right in-between
her boldness never ends
and I was sure my friends would see
this spectre at the feast
and somehow think me lesser
for inviting such a beast
but no, their warmth was undeterred
as if nothing was new
I think perhaps they know by now
I sometimes come as two
and even sadness seemed to glow
a lighter shade of grey
to know that she’s accepted
seemed to lighten up her day
so let your sad accompany you
don’t think her hard to bear
no need to face her all alone
just pull an extra chair.
