Hello everyone.
I haven't posted anything for quite a while now and feel bad that I haven't done so and tried to offer some words of comfort to you all, as I received and still do, when my mum passed away 8 months ago. I have read the postings and offer my condolences to all those new to this site, and also of course, the same to the "old crowd" and even though I haven't responded, my thoughts are with you all.
Obviously I find it extemely difficult without my mum most of the time as we were so close, but am trying not to focus on the sad and bad times of her illness and trying to remember the good times of which I was fortunate to have had with her. On Christmas Day my family and I raised a glass to her and I felt better doing that and I had put a couple of photos of her on the mantelpiece of an evening where we had a really good time. In my mind I still have conversations with her as I used to when she was here in person. People may think I'm mad to do that but I don't really care as long as it helps me!
Please keep posting on here (and I must practice what I preach) as we are all suffering in some way and can help each other and ourselves as we're not completely alone and are fortunate to have this site where we can say how good/bad we feel.
Love to you all.
