OJ - I often think of you and others in your situation and think that you have managed to carry this off with such dignity and grace for your children.

I do hope that you are well and that although hard you are getting through the firsts that you are having. I have no experiance of the pain you are suffering, but just wanted to let you know that we are all still here should you need a chat

OJ

SO sorry I didn't text you on the day. I had meant too. Think about you often. You are brilliant.

Buda · 27/01/2009 08:24

Hi OJ. Missed this thread. Have been wondering how you were doing.

I am sure Sunday was hard. I am sure that as Yorkie says all the firsts are the pits.

Hope you had some rum. Steve would have wanted you to.

Hi OJ I often wonder how you and your kids are doing. You were so kind to me when we found out my dad had pancreatic cancer last Jan, and again very kind when he died in September.

I think your children must be such strong little people, as I cry most days still, and this sunday would have been my dads 59th birthday.

Its lovely to read your posts and know that you are all carrying on with your lives, as best you can.

Lots of love to you all, and thank you so much again for the kindness you showed me.
You are an inspiration !!
