Re: Grief and Sadness

LQ loads of sympathy to you. Sounds like you 2 had a very special relationship. Grief is just about the most personal thing that can happen to a person. I guess the most important thing anyone can say is that they are with you on it and you're not alone.

I love the poem you wrote for Julia Queenie. You were blessed that you had each other. x

When I lost my parents I also was in a bit of a state. What helped me was the vicar when he said" don't thing you have lost them just because they are not with you any more. They have gone to another place to be greeted by those friends and relatives that went before. Eventually you will also go and join them and all meet up forever more"

Hugs LQ

You must have some wonderful happy memories of her. Maybe worth writing some of them down to celebrate her life at this time of year.

For some reason today I have been overwhelmed more than usual, I usually feel like I do today on milestones such as her birthday or anniversary of her death so I don't know why I am feeling as I am today.

So now I've done a stupid thing and I decided to look through my messages from her on facebook messenger to read messages between us both and the messages are so loving. Her last words on there for me was:

night Sis, Love you lots, like jelly tots
xxxxxxxxxxxx love you xxxxxxxxxxx


Why have I just tortured myself, why did I go to read the messages, especially today of all days when I'm already overwhelmed.

Anyway I've just sent her a message telling her how I will never stop loving her and to give mummy a kiss for me.

Today I'm feeling dreadfully and overwhelmingly sad. I keep thinking I'm coping then out of the blue it hits me like a ton of bricks.

It's true what they say, it comes in waves, today that wave is tidal.

I am so glad the final messages between us were so full of love.

I don't know why I'm telling you all this but thanks for listening anyway.
God Bless and help and strengthen you through your period

Re: Grief and Sadness

I feel so sorry for people who experience grief long after someone has died. I have never experienced grief and hope I never have to.
