It was 'our' birthday again this month - I was 66, you would have been 44. Birthdays are almost unbearable now, without you. Helen, you were that splash of bright technicolour in a dull, monochrome world - and I miss you. xxx

Thoughts
This is the second Mother's Day without my beautiful, amazing girl. Today I took all the cards you sent me over the years and put them up around the living room, remembering the happy times we had together. You may not be with me this Mother's Day, but I will always be your mother.

It's now January 2024 and I'm facing another year without my beautiful girl.
You were my joy and my inspiration, I feel lost and adrift since you left us.
It hasn't got any easier and probabably never will.
So I just keep plodding on, one day after another, wearing my cloak of invisible sadness, trying to maintain a cheerful facade for others.
When the feelings of loss are almost too unbearable, I try to remember the happy times - your face when we went to Bruges, seeing all the Christmas fairy lights, that little 'Whoop' you always made when excited.
There will never be anyone like you.

Helen, we wished we lived closer to each other, unfortunately due to work etc. it just wasn't possible - your life was in Wisbech and mine was up North. But I looked forward to the day I could retire and be free to spend more time with you. We were going to visit Downton Abbey, go on on a holiday to Malta, take a cruise down the Rhine. - we had so many plans. And now that I am finally retired, you're not here to do any of those things with me.

Another Mother's Day without you, Helen. You always made Mother's Day so special for me, and today I'm remembering those happy times, looking back at all the beautiful cards you sent me over the years.

I still find it hard to believe you're gone.

It's now just 2 weeks until the anniversary of the day you left us. I keep going over and over in my mind, the feelings of dread we experienced, watching you deteriorate. It all just feels unbearable at the moment - there's a huge Helen-shaped hole in my life that can never be filled.
I love you and I miss you, so much xxxxx
