Firstly, I just want to say thank you to all. I've been trying to keep myself busy posting pictures of the dogs in the early hours...but, it wasn't working and then I poured my heart out amongst the tears.

i lost my dad 5 years ago (he was 68 ) and am still not over it
doubt i ever will be, like you i cared for my dad in the hospital and never left his side for 5 days
i popped home on the sunday evening to get a shower and change of clothes, my sister and brother took over for me, i had not been in the house 20 minutes and got the call to say he had gone
it broke my heart as i felt he waited for me to leave because he knew i was the weakest one and would not have coped well, but i felt like i let him down
my deepest thoughts are with you hun
and if you wanna chat anytime we can
take care
xxxxx
Thanks you Jackie..that must have been so hard. I lost my dad too (4 years ago) but that was natural and somehow I can accept that better.
*hug* for you XX

My mum lost my grandmother suddenly at a young age, I was only 18 moths old. They were very close. The journey has been very painful but time became a healer.
Thank you..they certainly are and it feels as if everywhere you look there's someone telling you to buy your mum something special and not to forget her at the moment. I didn't know my gran as she died at 56 with stomach cancer before I was born. By all accounts she was a very special lady too!

I hope you manage to make it through today okay, I imagine its going to be a tough one for you.
Big hugs & all the sympathy in the world sending down your way. x
Aw thank you Laura, I don't really know just why it seems so very hard this year. Probably as Megan is starting to ask about them and it's really finally sinking in that they're not here anymore. XX

Dying of cancer is not a nice way to go and I wouldn't wish it in my worst enemy.
Thinking of you.

Thanks Becky..that must have been so hard for you *hugs*
Sounds like you've managed to adopt a very sensible attitude instead of being a complete idiot like me.

You must treasure every single memory of your mum and treat this day as a celebration of her life and not an anniversary of her death. God Bless.
Thank you, what a lovely women your mum must have been and it must have been so hard for you. *hugs* xx
I know I am lucky to have had all of those years with mum, just don't know why I'm cracking up so much this year.

Your mother sounded such a wonderful lady, I expect she was where you get your lovely warm, caring personality from.
My thoughts are very much with you on the anniversary of her untimely death.
Big hugs to you.
