A woman I know, from Carrickfergus, passed away. She had cancer, and recently had surgery. Yesterday morning, she died.
I have things to do, today, but I'm reluctant to do so.
My deepest condolences to you Desmond.
I lost a friend last year to cancer. I am still recovering from her loss now. Take it a day at a time and be kind to yourself. We're here if you need us.

I’m sorry. My condolences.
I’m really sorry to read this I lost a friend of mine a few years ago suddenly he had an epileptic seizure in his sleep and chocked it was very sudden. I literally saw him the day before he passed away and he was fine.
Gosh sixteen children! She must have been exhausted when they were growing up.
PS. I'm from Ireland as well
Sorry to hear that Desmond.
Be good to yourself and remember those who have passed with happy memories.
Thank you.
Nice to see you too
Hello stranger. Very nice to see you.
My condolences D
Excellent advice.
Here, in Ireland, there's the tendency to discard everything one had before; after a bereavement. I know a woman who had SIXTEEN kids. After one of her sons committed suicide, she became skeletal and pale.
I'm very sorry for your loss Desmond. It's not easy to loose somebody you know. Cancer is a vicious adversary. Be kind to yourself in the coming days

Keep moving forwards Desmond, if you can.
We can grieve and reflect whilst we move.
Honour the dead by honouring your continuing gift of life. I think this is good and healthy, and I suspect what most dead people would wish for, from us. My terminally ill friends and family have all urged this upon me, before their deaths.
Sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost the only friend I ever had in 2016. We met at school and she was probably the most understanding person I've ever met. I didn't know I was autistic then but she was so supportive and understanding.
I was destroyed when she died and I didn't feel like doing much after. It took a while before I started to move on and things started feeling normal again.
Give yourself time and be kind to you.
