Last week my friend left her house and was reported missing 2 days later. A week after she went missing a body was found in a wooded area and it has been confirmed as her. She was like a sister to me, so much so that she was the Best Women and witness at my wedding. She has been a very good friend for 13 1/2 years and i feel lost that, that friendship has just ended.
I have been amazed at how many people (friends and family) have sent both me and my husband their thoughts on us. I only saw her a couple of weeks ago and she seemed to be doing well (she has been diagnosed with suffering from depression) and has in the past called me when things got bad.
I'm not sure the reason of this post, other than to write down how i'm feeling. My feelings this week: Shock, lost, surreal, sadness, numb, feeling shattered, hoping she has found peace, wonder at what tipped her over the edge, great great sadness for her 2 children and why? ..... why? .... why? will we ever get the answers?????????
I'm also so aware that life goes on, finding that very hard. Work needs doing, children need feeding, the dog needs walking, the washing, the shopping has to be done. This is hard as i feel shattered.
