my friend(s)

[scrablet]

Don't know if this is right place to put this, but just found out my beautiful friend has died after a 5 year cancer battle. She died yesterday. i live now 400 miles away, but v luckily managed to see her this easter when I went back to where I'd lived for first time in about 6 years.
It just makes connections because she helped a lot with a friend of mine who died by suicide in June 5 years ago.
It brings it all back really.
We knew we were saying goodbye in April, at least she got to meet my DDs, with whom she was great.
Sorry, a bit muddled.

Scrablet I'm so sorry. It's lovely that you got too spend some time with her. And that you have some wonderful memories of her. Thinking of you and sending you much love x

Really sad news, I hope you are ok. Sounds like a really good thing you got to see her at Easter. I'm not sure what else to say really other than life really isnt fair at times. Best wishes

Scrablet i am going through exactly the same thing. My best friend died this morning after a year long battle with cancer.

I saw her three weeks ago in the hospital when we knew she didnt have long, i got to say goodbye and thank you for 21 years of friendship. I also got to tell her i had just got PG after an 18 month TTC, she was over the moon, i cried she cried...

How do you feel? I feel numb, i have grieved for the last 3 weeks and feel that i should be in bits, i am inside of course but am keeping it together. Am at work, i need the distraction.

Hugs to you - i know how hard this is xxx

Thank you all for replying,am coming to terms I suppose.
Martha, so sorry to hear your news, I fell apart on Monday, but now am a bit numb I think.
Everlong, you are so right, she was the older sister I would have wished for (not that I don't love my real sister).
Martha, sorry, carried on too quick, congratulations on pg, enjoy it.
