Ddad died on bank holiday Monday on the sunniest of sunniest days

[bibbitybobbityhat]

I feel I need to post this to update the very lovely people who have been taking an interest, but I'm still not really up to writing it all out because I'll just cry (again).

Anyway, thanks from me to all of you who posted on my previous threads and pm'd me.

bibbity, I'm so sorry.

So sorry, lost my Dad a few weeks ago. Horrible time.

[Hugs]

So sad for you - I still get pleasure from thinking that my Dad's last days on this earth were in the Spring, when he could enjoy the daffodils and cherry blossom.

so sorry to hear this xx

Sorry for your loss, bibbity.

Dads are very special people.

I hope you have lots of friends and family to help you.

He also died on the same day as Osama bin Laden. That feels wrong somehow. That his death should share the passing of my honourable, gentle dad.

my dad died last year on a bright sunny day. It always makes me think of him when it is sunny. it will be comforting to you too I hope
I am so sorry for your loss

my lovely nan died this time of year - i planted a lovely shrub in her favourite colour in the garden.every year when it flowers it reminds me of her.

I'm really sorry. Much love from all of us here xxx (fa)

So sorry bibbity!

So sorry to hear this

My thoughts are with you

Usually I love to wake up with the sun shining through the curtains. But it has seemed so wrong for the last few weeks. The weather has not matched my mood .

Ddad chose a woodland burial. A tree will grow above him. In stockbroker belt Surrey of all places!

Bibbity I'm very sorry for your loss :(

Thank you so much fa and Lady and Monty and everyone .

I haven't done loads of threads about it. I don't like to presume that anyone really knows me!

Methods: is it too late for me to get my gladrags on and come to the London meetup? I put it off before because my immediate future was so uncertain - that's all changed now and I might fancy doing something totally different to blow away the cobwebs ...

don't be daft, we all know you here

Meetup sounds like a good thing to do. Wish I could go, I'd love to meet you at last...! You're doing well darling. Take it easy on yourself.

I am so sorry Bibbity. My grandmother died around this time of year and I remember all I could think about was how sad it was that a woman who loved her garden so much could die just as the sun was coming out and all the flowers were blooming.

I don't know your back story but it sounds as though he has been released from his suffering. {hugs}

bibbity, I'm so, so sorry. I know that you knew it was coming, but that doesn't make it any easier.

Make sure that you take it easy and you're kind to yourself.

And I think it would be a bloody good idea to come to the meet up.

xx

I am so sorry about the loss of your dad Bibbity. Knowing it was going to happen doesn't make it any easier at all, I sadly know that from experience.

Post on this thread as much as you need/want to.

Please take care of yourself and be kind to yourself.

I think you should go to the meet up, it might just be good to spend some time blowing cobwebs off.

Bibbity go to the meet up, it will probably do you good. Be good to yourself lovely.

Oh bibbity. I am sorry. Thought it might be you when I read the title.

The woodland burial in stockbroker belt sounds lovely. And Osama bin laden will be nowhere near although I agree it is unfortunate that it was the same day. They needed a good'un up above to counteract the baddie down below?

Look after yourself. The meetup sounds lime a great idea.

Meetup will be more than a week after the burial, so yes, I am re-visiting the idea. Can anyone direct me to the facebook page?

Hope that works, otherwise, go to the meet up thread and ask there.
