My daughter died on Saturday
(156 Posts)I can't sleep. There's so much I have to do. Just waiting for daylight so I can go outside and see to my animals. The insomnia has been going on for months but it's harder to deal with now.
She had a life-limiting illness so we knew this day would come but didn't think it was going to be then.
Very to hear of your loss - even if you always knew it was going to happen, it's still awful when it eventually does, especially if it really wasn't expected this hospital visit.
Much love xxx
I can only send you a big hug but I hope it helps a little
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sending you a massive hug, though I appreciate that is little comfort.
I would also welcome hearing about your beautiful girl. Please tell us more, if it helps. This is the hardest, most surreal time ever, and my heart hurts for you. It is not right to lose your child.
So sorry acciddia. You sound understandably in shock and still processing. I want to wish you peace and some help in the days to come but fear it sounds trite since that is such an enormous ask
Thinking of you and your family.
I am so so sorry x
So sorry to hear your news. ((hugs)) thinking of you.
So very sorry for your loss. I too lost a child (cancer), he too was stubborn as we were told many times that 'the time' had come only for him to carry on. But we had a better idea that it was really going to happen as he was end stage for a couple of months at home and so it wasn't so much of a shock.
Knowing that it will happen at some point doesn't make it any easier to deal with the hurt, the loss and the practicalities. You miss them just as much, want to be with them just as much and continue to enjoy all the pleasures that they give you.
I hope you have plenty of help and support and that you can all get through this difficult time. xxx
I've just come back from speaking to her headteacher - she is one of the most fabulous people I have ever met. We've sat and talked about dd, laughed and cried - I am feeling a bit calmer now as this was one of the things I was dreading. She is going to tell the other schools for me and inform parents etc.
So sorry for your loss.

Accidia, your path is unspeakably hard. But you have the might of mumsnet walking that path with you - not saying much perhaps, just a few words to show that we are here and we are listening. If you stumble, we will be here to catch you and gently help you back on your feet.
Sending love to you and your family.
