What can you say in times like this? We can attempt to type words of encouragement, condolences, or what-ever, but every typed word seems so insignificant compared to the vibrant years of a life that was lived, be it a human, pet, or plant... Life is the most precious gift that God has ever provided and with each passing of a life of any kind, God instills in all living creatures a renewed passion for life and survival.

Hang in there, Motinot, the guy "upstairs" will comfort you... Just be open to him when the time is right and any pain will simply fade away..

What a terrible thing to happen, I only read about it today (21 July 2010!).
I hope the family has come to terms with it by now.
Hilda

Thank you for your kind words Hilda....The family are doing well...Tracy the youngest child and only girl was married on January 9th past we all had a nice day....but the sadness at Anne's absence was clear...Tony (my brother) has spent some time in Australia with his eldest son, he is at home now and is feeling very lonely, so he is heading back to Australia in 2 weeks time where he can indulge in his favourite pastime...jazz...he loves playing piano and is very talented...thanks again Hilda for your kind comment x...

Oh! Motinot, I turned to your page to veiw your garden for the first time, i wasnt expecting to read of your terrible losses! it was hard to read, I hope your able to look ahead and continue on goy?! My thoughts are with you! x

Thank you so much Liverbirdlian.....It was the yearly anniversary of Anne and Seamus a short while back and we had a service in church..it was lovely...Her boys are still coming to terms with the loss of their mother especially, some better than others (7boys)...But every passing day helps...Thank you for the lovely comment xxx

Motinot, I have only just read this blog but I wanted to say how sorry I was to hear of these very sad events happening so close together. The family must be devastated. Glad you managed to share your sadness with the friends on here who will want to give you some support at such a difficult time. Hope your gardening helps you throught a bad time, it usually helps me when I'm down.

It certainly helped me Bell.....The folk on this site have given me tremendous support and i will never forget it.....Thanks again...and you too Bellflower xxx

Dreadful... my best wishes to you, Anita.

Thank you so much Pip c...

I just found your blogs as I'm home sick the past 2 weeks so needless to say I have plenty of time for GOY.
I was shocked to read your blog of such devastating losses. How shocking! I've only heard of such a thing happening once before. It's hard enough to lose one member of the family but two at the same time is beyond anything I have experienced. My heart goes out to you and yours. I know loss too well so I know the pain of it and I know that only time eases the pain. So I hope by now the pain has eased and you have found a way to deal with it. I believe you'll meet again one day to enjoy each other's company again. Until then I wish you fond memories and peace. Perhaps you might plant a flower or tree in their names, you might find it helps, but silly me perhaps you already have.

I like others here don't mind in the lease if you share your sadness with us here. Life is full of up and downs, laughter and tears. Anyone one can brave the good times but what good are friends ( even internet friends ) if they can only weather the good times.
For better or for worse, in sickness and in health through laughter or the tears.
All the best to you and yours.

P.S
I'm from Co. Wicklow but live in LA. I miss Ireland though.
