If you know me in real life and have found this blog, please honour my wishes and don't read on. I need this place to freely write my feelings to help me to heal and if you're reading, I'll censor myself. I have no way of knowing who is reading so all I can do is trust you to honour my wishes. Thank you.

A Change of Scene

A couple of times my counsellor has bought up the fact she thinks the ocean and nature are healing. As part of this we agreed I was going to try and get out and walk the dog each day. Since then it's been really hot so I haven't been. But we are spending the weekend on one of the bay islands and I have a view of water. I think it is healing. Maybe we'll try and get out of town more often while I try to do the impossible - heal from the loss of my child.

Matilda - last time we were here you were alive and I spent the weekend hoping you were going to be OK. Thinking to myself 'you have OK - I can't deal with the alternative'. And now 6 months later I'm here trying to deal with the alternative. I hope you're here with me. I love you as much as ever.

  1. i hope you are still feeling a little soothed from being near water.

    i should get out to the coast more. i don't live far away, but i rarely go, even though i love it.
