So why this blog???!!

As you know my Steve died suddenly in a road accident in March 2008. Well I have come a long way since those awful early days.... Have made some wonderful new friends who, unfortunately, were experiencing the same loss. We've helped drag each other through to a point where we have learnt to live again.

Yes, I still miss & love him and I still have the odd 'wobble'. But I thought that I'd blog some of the things that I have learnt along the way in case it is of help to anyone going through the same experience.

These are just my thoughts, we all cope in different ways, so it is not a 'guide' on how to be. I am certainly no 'expert' and don't profess to be. Just thought it may be helpful to share...

I remember everything about you,
your voice, your smile, your touch,
the way you walked, the way you talked,
the way you looked at me, meant so much.


I remember all the words you said to me,
some funny, some kind, some wise,
all of the things you did for me,
I see now with different eyes.


I remember every moment we shared,
seems like only yesterday,
or maybe it was eons ago,
It's really hard to say.


You are gone from me now,
but one thing they can't take away,
your memory resides inside my heart,
and lights up my darkest days
