To tell you all DD2 is 2 today and I got her there all by myself after being widowed when pregnant.

[grobagsforever]

DH died when I was 36 weeks pregnant. DD2 is two today! (DD1 nearly 6). Since she was born I've got back to work nearly full time, learned to drive and done the London marathon in aid of CRUK. My daughters are happy and healthy and have the most amazing bond. I've made a ton of mistakes but right now I just want to be proud.

You are an inspiration to any parent who is struggling with a 'here and now' difficult situation. You definitely rock!

You are amazing, Grobags!

Happy birthday DD2!

You should absolutely feel proud xx

Wow
You are amazing
many happy returns to the little one and much love to you all for being a wonderful family
Xxxxx

I was thinking of you the other day Grobags (I had just joined MN at the time of your original thread) - so happy to hear this update! Many congratulations to all three of you.

Thanks again all. DD2 had a lovely day.

Good :)

Currently pregnant with my first child & this has made me cry! You should feel immensely proud of where you've come.

So glad all is going well. I read your status on FB /way

Going back to work was the best thing for you and kids. Be proud of yourself for surviving. - can't believe it's 2yrs

Then again 5yra for me and can't believe that either

Wow grobags. You are amazing.

My DH has cancer and i can hardly imagine how hard that time was for you to deal with. You utterly rock and I am so so impressed at all you have achieved.

WELL DONE!! xxxxx

Be proud but be aware that everyone has had a journey and be sensitive about who you tell.

It's so great to read such a positive post! Well done for holding it all together when many would have fallen apart. Feel very proud, not just today, everyday. You are amazing!

I can't imagine what you've been through and I'm pretty sure I would have just laid down and died myself in the same circumstances. Well done to you, you're an inspiration. A very happy birthday to your little girl.
