i am so sad

Sorry for your loss. Take all the time you need to grieve and thinking of your own mortality is not selfish...just normal. Take care. Kath x

Oh Maryrose! This doesn't make you selfish, it makes you normal. Considering the circumstances you are in with bc in particular, it is no wonder that this has made you think of your own mortality. My Aunt passed away from cancer whilst I was finishing my treatment and it really knocked the wind out of my sails. It was just too close to home. Rarely do we actually get to say goodbye to those we love when they pass away. It is extremely sad circumstances when young children are involved. Allow yourselves time to grieve and be sad both for you and your friend. It is a reminder that life is short and none us us know when it is going to be our time, so it is important to make the most of every day. My condolences on your loss. Karen xox

So sorry to hear your tragic news.  Of course you have to grieve.  It really doesn't matter you didn't get to say goodbye, you know.  Few of us get to do that.  She was your friend, you loved her and she knew that.  That is what is important.  Look after yourself and maybe write her a letter saying all you feelings.  Thinking of you. 

I am so sorry you are going through this. It is so hard to lose someone close to you. Let yourself grieve, take as long as you need. Be gentle with yourself. Sending lots of hugs, Jacqui

I am so sorry :'(

Hi Mary Rose,

I am so sorry for your loss, what makes it sadder is that she had such a young child that breaks my heart. You need to take time to grieve as you have lost a friend also, I agree take time and remember your friend and the times you spent together and the memories you have will live on forever, I am sending you a gigantic cyber hug and a big smile, you look after yourself and take time to heal.

I am so sorry that you lost your friend, and it is tragic that her little girl is so young.  Walk on the beach and think of all that you loved about your friend, knowing that she would want you to remember her that way.  I am in hospital after my mastectomy and four weeks ago today attended the funeral of a friend who died of breast cancer.  It was very hard, as it was only four days after my second lumpectomy, but I got through it by thinking of her as free from the pain.  My thoughts are with you.

Dear Mary Rose

Sending you condolences and a virtual hug.  Please take time to grieve and work through the grief; it is too close to home for you and it is natural to feel scared about the reality of what has happened and your own vulnerability.

Not sure if you have heard of the Dash Poem, link below, upon reading this I hope it will help you with coming to terms of your loss

Take care and take time to come to grips with what has happened.

 You are not selfish, give yourself time to grieve. I know going through my own treatment it questioned my own mortality. Unfortunately this is life, we don't chose when we pass. I'm sure you were there for your friend as much as you could have been.

Please take time out to grieve I lost my father last year it is coming up to 12 month. I always feel guilty because the last time I seen my father wasn't great. He had a massive stroke and part of me is at peace that he didn't suffer. Take care of yourself and I send my condolences it is tough. Sending you a big hug xxxx
