oh ...I feel like that when people moan about their dad's

But I suppose not everyone is as lucky to have a mum as great as yours or a dad as lovely as mine

Is that odd?

I'm one of the ones with problems too but I know a bit how you feel, my dad was the one I was close to and he died in 2001.

Oh 2Shoes, you could share mine. She's lovely and would like you too. She probably wouldn't be able to hear you though, as she's got tinnitus and is a bit deaf. However, she's a dab hand at lip-reading

Birthdays are hard. And anniversaries of death.

2shoes, I know what you mean. I read your post and welled up because I thought exactly the same earlier when looking at some threads about Mums. I felt awful thinking it though because it's not their fault my Mum's not here

I dreamt about my dad last night, it was really vivid and I didn't know whether to cry or feel comforted when I woke up. I plumped for comforted.

I like it when I dream about my dad WWW....I find I dream about him in completely normal circumstances...like sitting down having a cuppa or something...never the horrible bits that I struggle with during the day....but although feel odd in the morning, it IS comforting as I can remember what he sounds like, or looks like...omg...now I'm the one being a silly cow....

28 years...a long time....I'm with you on remembering the good times....hopefully in time I will be able only to remember the nice dates!

WideWebWitch · 20/10/2007 21:59

Well sorry you're feeling down 2shoes. I don't do hugs but

I know, it is nice dreaming about them in a way because you do get to actually hear their voice and 'see' them and so it is comforting when you know you won't again irl.

Sorry if that;s depressing.

I feel like this as well. The last couple of weeks have been really hard withs DS 1st birthday. She always dreamed of GC and never got to see them, she didnt even see me grow up. It hurts as if it was yesterday but its been nearly 8 years.

I am really struggling at the moment.
