This is the start of a new journey for me and my much loved friends from the original Oesophegus thread on general discussions.
We have become a close group and this will be our new home to continue our journey as life has become very hard for many of us and we keep re-living our journeys with lots of newbies which puts us all back a bit.
So my lovely friends Mel, Sam, Helen, Bern, Jac, Nic, Dawn, Sue, Cath, Lesley, Jani and the many other special friends Mel and I have made over the last 16 months this is it we have a new home.
Love to all and extra strength to carry us through our next stage XXX

My lovely brave friend Jac,
Thank you for sharing, and thank you for reminding us that love gives us strength.
Hello all. I am lost for words to write here. Reading the messages and the support you all give to each other is unbelievable. I think you are all pretty marvellous. Thank you to all of you, you have lifted me by just being you. Love and hugs. SAM sam x
As you know it was Rochelle's Mum's special day today. I will let Rochelle tell you about the wonderful send off that she organised with bravery and grace, but I wanted to let you all know how incredibly kind Rochelle and her family were to me.
I shared the first Limo with Rochelle, her wonderful dignified Husband, her handsome brave Son, and her two special Nephews.
The minister mentioned me in the service, and after Rochelle's mum was laid to rest, Rochelle and her Husband led everyone over to my Mum's resting place to pay their respects.
Such kindness, at a time when the pain is so raw. I am so very grateful.

Have had a hectic day today so not been able to get on until now.
Jac - I am lost for words. The strength, love and bravery that you and your family have is amazing. You must be so very proud. Lots of love to you and yours X
Em - have a good weekend my friend, you have a lot on but that might be a good thing and remember to spoil that hubby of yours X
Rochelle - the day you organised for your Mum sounds perfect, she will be so proud of you. Just after the funeral is such a hard time as there is no more planning to do, nothing more to organise. Let yourself grieve hun and we will be here to walk by your side and help you through X
Love and (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))))))))) to everyone, I hope the weekend is kind to us all
We all know how these early days just pull the rug from under you. There is a huge void in your life, and no way of fixing it. I wish things could have been different for us all.
I did find that starting Mum's 'In Memory' dedication helped, as I feel that I can still say things to her, let her know how I'm feeling, let her know what's happening and try and do special things like the little pictures I post.
Wish there was more I could say or do to help, but we are all here for you.
I've been struggling a little, not specificially with grief, but more with the change in myself and how this has affected my family.
I have always been the strong, reliable, problem solver. Always there for everyone, always giving, but I just do not have anything to give anymore.
My family have got use to me be the strong organised one, so now they expect things to be as they were, but I'm not strong anymore, I'm not organised, I find that even being asked to arrange the simplest thing is such a huge effort for me. Everyone expects that as time is moving on, I should be able to adapt back to the person I was, but what if I can't?
I feel really angry, and really alone because other than all my lovely mac friends, no one gets it.
All round today!
Just Chillin with 
...do you think they 
no let up ever, 
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
