doesn't get easier milo, we are old getting older so that means our peers, parents and friends and foe are also getting older. Hang in there and makes some phone calls, see a doc, helpline and that stuff if things are getting on top of you, we all need a someone to talk to at times and a shoulder to cry on. Maybe even a few more post on here as I for one miss your posts of the dreams you have
cheers

Milo, I find music helps at these times. Keeps the mind occupied a bit.
Take care, John.

the last 12 months have been hell, not just funeral stuff, but other things .
thankfully though I have a really good GP now, she actually sits and listens to you,
not like most that just look at their pc. I am on heaps of meds now, thats the only down side.
and I have been to just about every counselor and therapist in town!
I think though I'm in a better mind set now than I was this time last year...
I still have dreams, sometimes nightmares too, but still have dreams of my own motorhome or campervan,
some day when I'm ready...

Life does not need to be fair. We have just lost our son from a neuromuscular disease. Have now buried all our children, 3 with CF. Not supposed to be that way.
All you can do is remember th9e good times and live life yourself.

Death is something we all seem to ignore until it hits those close to us.
I have lost
7 close friends in the last 30 months. One was my ex-wife, another my best mate.
The part that really made me think is they were all younger than Me.
Hang in there Milo and don't be afraid to seek help.

Oh Neil
I feel for you I have lost 1 child and find that hard to cope with but to loose all your children is so unfair. I hope life gives you as much joy as you want as you certainly deserve it. Enjoy your travels around our great country.
Cheers Chris

Was at a funeral last week of a friend who died from the effects of emphysema(?) - she was 51.
Her mother was a the funeral, and it was so sad to see her, in her walking chair, sobbing for her daughter - it is a sad thing to outlive your children, my mother in law outlived both her sons. She is with them now.
My thoughts are with those who lose loved ones at any time of the year.
