  • For Andy x

    When i'm awake or try to sleep i know my eyes will always weep, it's happened since that tragic day when cancer took my soulmate away. Andy and I, we had such fun, he'll always be my number one but now i can not hold his hand, my life, no longer, can i stand. My heart is now completely shattered all is gone, that ever mattered. I miss his smell, his smile, his touch I loved you Andy, very much. I know I have to say goodbye rebuild my life, I now must try. So every day I paint on my smile and it fools most people for a while. Sleep well Babs xxxx

Your page has helped me alot and for that I thank you Babs. Although we are a year apart in our loss, life is no easier for either of us. Take care, thinking of you today. xx

  • scream and shout

    Hello you xx

    Having yet another one of those days... just want to scream at the top of my voice " whats your problem!!" Peoples worries and woes all seem so petty and trivial. Arguing with loved ones... at least they're still there to argue with. I miss you as much today as I did when you passed. As the holiday postcard says... wish you were here.

    Love ya

    Babs xx
