I have no wise words hazygirl. Just want to say I am thinking of you.

def need a rant, thats the great thing about here. You need to be angry, and let out the hurt.

You sound like a great mother, and I am sorry you are feeling so low, but it is a sad time for you.

sending hugs and I hope that you continue to find strength.

Hi Hazygirl,
Don't even worry about the ADs at the moment it's not a race of how quickly you can do with out them. Could you reduce or condense yor hours at work at all? Then maybe you could do something just for you. I was thinking of piano lessons recently something I'd always wanted to do but I can't even read music! Where about do you live? I'd love to come and take you out if possible I'm in them midlands. Maybe you could do cookery classes just to kick start your interest again.
Have you made any plans for saturday at all? Are you ready for maybe a simple family meal a takeaway or a cassorole( something really easy) and getting photos out or writing little messages to your grandson or your new grandaughter or even each other. I know it's going to be so hard for everyone but maybe now is the time to face your sadness together but make some future memories aswell.

I think of you often

Wishing you all love and strength for this weekend hazygirl. How will you spend the day?

Glad you have the reassurance of hospital check ups. Remember CONI support is for all the family and that means you too. It's also still early days emotionally so try not to give yourself a hard time.

How are your dd and her dp doing too?

Didn't realise it was another granddaughter that was seen yesterday, sorry about that, shouldn't assume.
We're doing ok I think, just all very up and down. Looking forward to Christmas for dd1's sake but dreading it at the same time. Take care

Hazygirl, I'm so sorry. In my experience, and that of my friends, the run up to the baby's first birthday is just dreadful, but the day itself never as bad as you imagined. Deciding how you'll spend the day does help - one friend sent little paper boats out to sea, we went for a big walk to talk about our daughter and bought her a tree.

I hope you sleep as well as you can tonight, and that tomorrow brings peace. Thinking of you.

Hazygirl - I cannot find your email address.

I am thinking of you and your daughter and her husband and their little girl - and of course, Jayden.

It will get easier for you. Take each day as it comes.

Much love to you hazygirl. I live in Leeds too and I saw your notice in the Leeds Weekly News - it was beautiful and made me cry.

Thinking of you, your family and Jayden on this very difficult day.x

Been thinking and praying for you all today. Good to read you were pleased with how the graveside looked - It comes across so vividly from your posts how loved and missed Jayden is.
