One year


Yesterday, the first anniversary of Joan's death, passed with a few tears all round from me and Helen and James. We set a glass of bubbly for Joan on the dinner table.

I received messages of condolence from quite a few of our friends including a wonderful poem written for me by our friend Joy.

It is said that the first year is the hardest.

kev, Our thoughts were with you yesterday. It is so hard. The first birthday , the first Easter, first Christmas, first anniversary without your loved one,Good family and friends are a great help. but it doesn't help with that enormous loss. They say time heals. I hope so. One day at a time, Marg

I also raised a glass of bubbly :) And shed a few tears.
You and Joan are always in my thoughts. Whenever stop missing the people we love but grief does get easier to handle with time. Love and hugs.
