Mrs Braveheart, i'm so thankful for your thread, it really does help to know that others are going through similar situations and your not on your own. I've lost both my parents, both around christmas time and its hard... i miss them both desparately, and when we first arrived here I couldnt feel them around me and i panicked... it was horrible. But I know in my heart of hearts they are here with me looking out for me and family as they have always done.. Sometimes this isnt enough though and I just want that big hug off them that only a mum and dad know how to give!! Oh dear the tears have started again now!!!
Anyway just wanted to let you know you're not on your own, and thankfully after reading your thread I know that i'm not too!!!
Love
Tracey
