Share Michael's 27th birthday with me?

What a handsome lad.
I'm saddened for ur loss. I've lost so many in my life. Some I love and miss so much. I've never been a mother so I don't know exactly what a mother feels when she loses a child, but I do understand losing a loved one. I can only say it's the hardest part of life. It would be great if we could all avoid it, for it's a heart wrenching life altering experience! My heart goes out to u and I hope u have many treasured memories to get u through this life until u meet again.
Hugs to u.

Can't imagine what it must be like to lose a child, but I have lost some very dear people and my OH. I feel for you today and will be thinking of you. He looks a lovely chap. But as my old dad used to say ' Keep your chin up' and look at the good things. God Bless.

You don't expect to lose a child Fluff. He looks relaxed and happy in his grown up photo. I do feel for you to lose all that potential fun and joy to be his mum far into the future. Keep smiling on and sharing your joys and sorrows.

A son to be proud of Fluff and in your hearts for always.

We can't 'feel' your feelings, but we can send you hugs and be with you in spirit today. Thanks for sharing Michael's photos with us. xxx

What an honour to share your sons birthday today with you Fluff, You are in my thoughts today, and I am sending you a big hug Di xx

Michael was a lovely boy/man and I can just imagine how hard is has been for you to have lost him. None of us can ever understand why our loved ones are loaned to us for a period - sometimes short sometimes longer - but one thing no-one can ever take from us is memories. It's lovely that you can share this day with us all and I know Michael is enjoying his birthday in heaven with all the angels! As a mother myself, my heart goes out to you. I pray that today is very special for you all. Those words in the card are amazing and absolutely beautiful - thank you for sharing them with us. God bless!

Thankyou for sharing this sad day with us Fluff, I can only imagine how you must be feeling. My thoughts are with you and I hope your thoughts are full of all the wonderful birthdays you did share with your beloved son. Sending a big hug your way xx

Fluff, I hope you don't mind, but I've gone back through your blogs to read about Michael as I was unaware of his passing. How very tragic to have lost your son so young, but the way you remember him, with Big Country, Ginsters Pasties has made me smile. As mother of 29 and 27 year olds, I just can't imagine how you must have felt. I'l be thinking of you and yours today. Michael is probably looking down at you, in your new shoes and saying 'Go for it, Mum ! ' x

It's good to remember and it's hard to forget....that about sums up what you will be feeling today, Fluff. Losing a child is the most unexpected and sad experience a parent (a mom) can live through. It is not the order of things usually when a child predeceases a parent.

I know you remember Michael every day but today I hope the light from your candle will brighten your day. Tears mingle with memories, I'm sure...and I send you comfort and heaps of understanding. (((hugs)))

I wish for you....strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow. x

Fluff - xxxxx
:o)

my thoughts are with you today Fluff..

Fluff.....Thinking of you today and sending you a hug and xxx

Thank you for sharing treasured memories and photos of your lovely son. He would be proud of you just as you are so proud of him. Thinking of you, God bless.

~ a hug from me too fluff~ nothing worse, even though I lost my son as a young child I know it devastates you and changes your life forever!

Thank you so very much everyone ... for your kind & heartfelt comments ... I knew sharing his day with Goyers would be a comfort.

We have been out for the day or I would have answered each of you as you wrote ... flowers at the grave & roadside then onto Weymouth as I love to be by the sea.
There wasn't a cloud in the sky all day & it was so hot it felt like a summer's day instead of early October.
I know many of you have lost loved ones too whether it be children, partners, parents or siblings & so you know how it is ... my family are not the types to show remembrance with flowers or anything so I always want to make a fuss of my boy's special dates.

Thank you again ... you lot are the best. xxxx

I am pleased, Fluff, that your day was spent as you felt right....a cloudless day and lots of sunshine will be comforting to you...and being able to acknowledge this day by laying flowers. x

Thanks W.lass ... he deserves to be remembered with something happy. xx

I do so feel for you today as our youngest lad was 27 in June. I hope you were able to feel some peace on what has been a beautiful day compared to yesterday. (((Hugs))) to you and yours xxx and also to you Arlene xxx.

Aster ... thank you ... it was a lovely, thoughtful day.
Isn't it amazing how the weather can change so dramatically in 24 hours?

heartfelt hugs for today. It never goes away does it, just changes? Beautiful day today so the sunbeams had to be from him.

For sure Sbg ... thank you.xx

Thinking of you Fluff.....Michael will never be forgotten...all the best, you are never alone with all of us on here :))))

Thank you Michaella ... that's worth a lot. :o)

Just want to say I'm thinking of you Fluff, how lucky you were to have Michael even though for such a cruelly short time. How lucky he was to have had such a lovely Mum too......your memories of him can never be taken from you. xx

That's nice of you Lily ...thank you.

He didn't think so when I threw his trainers out on the lawn cos they were whiffy!

sending you a big hug Fluff....such lovely photos of your Michael xxx

Thinking of you Fluff,lovely photo's of Michael. xxx

Hi Fluff,

Big hugs from Carol and I and a "big sloppy kiss" from Holly too.

I'm pleased you were able to lay flowers, I can't imagine how hard it is to deal with this kind of grief but I do know you will never be without him.

Love from Carol, Holly and me

x X x

Thank you Elsie, Khayla & Mr Digs,Carol & especially sloppy kisser Holly babe!
It's so nice to have kind words & hugs from you all.xx

~thanks Aster!~there is no good age to lose a child as you feel sacked from your full time job as carer as well as missing the son or daughter when they are very young ~in our case we were lucky to subsequently have a special daughter who has taken away a lot of the pain and provided so much joy for us~she did have to put up with a really cautious mum who worried like mad even though I tried hard to let her lead a normal carefree chldhood! ~ she turned out alright thank goodness!

An understandable reaction Arlene xx

Of course she did Arlene ... you would be a lovely mum if you had 10 children.

My brother & sister - in - law lost their baby daughter at about 15 weeks to cot death & subsequently had a little boy. He was spoilt rotten & led his mum a merry dance but grew up to be a lovely man who reminds me of Michael in many ways.

I'm sure you have happy memories of your little boy as do I ... they will never fade.xx

My thoughts were with you on the day, Fluff. Sorry I've not been in touch.

I know they were Silverbelle .... thank you.xx

I Think of you every day! coz I think of my son every day and u were so good with me I always share a wee thought of you!

The photos are good and he was a handsome boy!
I know it good to share photos of him coz we are proud of them even tho not here!

Hi Marydoll ... I do hope you are ok.
Thank you so much for your kind words ... I think of you often too.
I wish I'd told Michael more how proud I am of him & how much I love him but I suppose we all wish that eh?
Lots of love to you.xx

Yes we do but im sure they knew!
