even as life seems to return to a kind of normality for your friends here, many of us continue to grieve for you .. and we will continue to be here for you when you are ready or in need of us we will be here

each candle is a thought, each thought is a prayer however we choose to pray

Havn't posted on the other thread,did not have words to express how awful this is.Have lit a candle with a huge lump in my throat and tears for Maude and her family.

MamaG · 07/01/2007 09:40

Just lit another candle for Maude x

Budababe · 07/01/2007 09:46

Have just lit another one too.

I too keep being hit by a wave of sadness - God only knows how GGG is coping.

GhostOfMumsnet · 07/01/2007 09:46

What a lovely idea and website.
Just lit a candle.

IntergalacticWalrus · 07/01/2007 09:47

I've lit a candle too.

GGG, you are never far from my thoughts x

MamaG · 07/01/2007 09:47

I think we all do - I'll be cleaning the bathroom/making a cuppa and it hits me

popsycal · 07/01/2007 09:51

I would love to light a candle but cant work out how to do it. COUld some pplease explain
thanks

Twiglett · 07/01/2007 09:55

popsy .. just find a candle that isn't lit and click on it and it takes you through in stages .. giving you time to reflect, time to write a message and time to just watch

I've lit my candle just now. Sleep tight precious Maude.

SherlockLGJ · 07/01/2007 11:32

We prayed for Maude and her family at Mass this morning.

I also asked the PP to remember Maude in his prayers this week, he promised to pray for her.

pussycatmomma · 07/01/2007 12:17

re-lit my candle. Thinking of you all at such a tragic time x x

nutcracker · 07/01/2007 15:29

Just relit mine and lit one from my kids as DD1 said she'd like to.

It is just so heartbreaking.

foundintranslation · 07/01/2007 15:41

Like LGJ, at church today we prayed for Maude and all who grieve for her at this time.

Dottydot · 07/01/2007 18:55

A wonderful number of candles lit.

Spidermama · 07/01/2007 19:05

I've been thinking about Maude all day. I didn't meet her or know her though I've 'known' ggg for a while on MN.

GGG we're all here for you. I know it seems hopeless and it probably will for a good while yet but, we're all here for you and whenever you want to talk, whatever you want to say, however you want to be listened to, we're here for you. What we all have in common is motherhood and we're aching for you now.

I agree dotty - I use this candle site alot and I don't think I have ever seen so many pages (10 at the moment) lit.

Please remember these candles burn out after 48 hours. Come back and re-light your candle for Maude.

Jeepers · 07/01/2007 21:24

so sorry
xxxx

cupcakes · 07/01/2007 21:30

thank you Twig. That site was just what I needed after seeing the beautiful photo of Maude.

I hope the candles keep burning for a very long time.

popsycal · 07/01/2007 21:31

I have just been looking at the candles - the one from Maude's big sister made me cry

Thinking of you all xxx
