Today is 12 months since Ade died.
Wow, where has the time gone? It only feels like it was yesterday. My anxiety seems worse today (to be expected I guess).
I have had people reaching out to me asking what I am doing today as if it is a day to celebrate. I don’t mean to feel bitter towards them but I do!
I am taking our dog Charlie to the beach and will remember the laughs we all had at the beach together through my endless tears no doubt. It is a lovely day for it, the sun is shining compared to the rain over the past few days.
The sun was also shining with clear skies when I did a tandem skydive on Valentines Day raising money for the hospice who cared for Ade
