It's not that I'm after sympathy, but I just needed to tell someone. My Nan died in the early hours of this morning. I knew it was coming and I said goodbye the other day. I feel like I'm in a dream. House full of kids as normal (too short notice to cancel them, but no point in a sense cos nothing could be done today anyway). Nothing feels real today. Making chocolate fudge with the children, but then feel guilty. Surreal. Thankyou all for listening.Love Ju.xxx.

Thankyou all so much for your lovely and kind messages. It means so much. Lots of love. Julie.xxx.

So sorry to hear that Julie

I have sent you a message I am also grieving at the moment and it might help you to talk about it ?

I know what you mean about feeling guilty I am still feeling that 2 weeks on - you feel like you should not laugh - should not do normal day to day things - but it is right that you continue you have to stay strong

Sending you lots of love

A very sad time for you Julie. To be honest it is better to be busy with the little ones. It keeps you on an even keel so to speak. So dont feel guilty.

When my dad died i was better when i was minding. It was when i was on my own that i got more upset. I know we have to let our grief out. But feeling that pain 24 hours a day is not good for anyones health.

So chocolate fudge sounds just right to me :)

when my nan died (10 yrs) ago i thought my world had ended she was my best friend i missed not being able to tell her about my kids and what id been doing. We planted her ashes under a tree and i go there to talk to her i go every month tell everything so i still feel she knows everything

Sorry to here your news. Lots of hugs coming ur way. I remember so well the bubble you go into. My grandad passed away 5 and half years ago. Like u i knew it was going to happen and got to say bye before as he passed away early morning. It seemed like he waited for us all to go and sleep so he could be on his own. Its so strange. Make sure u give yourself a few days off though. Did u mention it to the parents? Pm if you ever want to even if its just to say something you remember.

Sending you big hugs. It's not nice when something like this happens and it makes you put alot of things in perspective. It will take a while and as long as you are around people who love you they will understand how you feel. Take time out when you feel the time is right, there are always people on here if you need someone to talk to.:group hug:

So sorry to hear your news, the saddest day for me was my grandad dying, and 12 years on this still hurts, we lost my dear mil in december and it feels odd carrying on without them, but life has to go on, just make sure that around all of the children, you make time for yourself to grieve and try not to feel guilty if occassionally you can still smile, they would want you to go on and make the best of your life.

I am so sorry for your loss, I understand how you are feeling my mum died suddenly 6 weeks ago unexpectedly, I felt I should rush back to work because keeping busy would take my mind off it. All I can say is don't rush into things, take your time and allow yourself some breathing space because sometimes not allowing yourself to grieve can come back and bite you in the bum. Take care:littleangel:

So sorry to hear of your loss.

My nan died a few years ago and we still miss her deeply. Its silly things as well that make us remember her - when a new Argos catalogue came out we used to pick one up for her too. When the new one came out a couple of weeks ago it made me sad just picking up one.

Sending you all best wishes and hugs.

Can't say anything thats not been said. Lost my nan in march, grandad last aug, mum march last year. Take time to grieve, being busy with the kids during the day will help but do allow yourself time to grieve hun. Big hugs xxxx
