My first birthday without you Laura. It just doesn’t feel right, everyone is trying their best but I just miss you so much. These special days just don’t feel special anymore. Saw the sun rise this morning, how can you not be here?
@shitscaredmum I’ve had 12 birthdays without my youngest. I still struggle on the special dates. Be kind to yourself and your family especially on those days.
@shitscaredmum My birthday happens to be today. This milestone is weird. It used to knock me off of my feet. Now, I've found my grip on the earth when the swells happen. Happy birthday, mom.
@shitscaredmum My heart goes out to your family. It isn't right. Parents outliving their children is not how it should to be. When my husband died at 31, his Mum wrote that we live on in the hearts of those who loved us. Which, unless you have a religious faith ,which I don't is some comfort.
@shitscaredmum You're a powerhouse of a lady! You inspire me! Yes it's going to feel crap but try to smile that lovely smile of yours knowing that Laura has such a brilliant mum who will keep persevering despite challenges. She may not be here physically but will never be forgotten. Xx
@shitscaredmum Sending lots of love. It's incredibly difficult & painful as a bereaved Mum,on your birthday. The first one is the hardest. I still put up old birthday cards he'd sent me,because I can't bear to see him missing from the mantlepiece. I hope you find some peace today xxx
