I sit and look at the stars for hours at night, i even talk to them.... makes me feel better knowing my angels are watching over me!

I get so disappointed when i go outside in the evening and the sky is full of clouds and i cant see the stars. Heard on the weather report this morning that in my area the skys will be clear for the next few nights....... i got all excited thinking about it, just knowing that i will be able to look up and feel that feeling i cant even describe......... am i going mad or wot?????

The Men in White Coats will be after me soon im telling ya

I sat in the Garden last night and had a chat and a cry!
Love looking at the stars, and having a chat, and a cry!

I like the tree idea Jase!!

Sorry to but in, but I have considered doing it for my Mum!! xx

I can't remember what it is exactly but it was not about letting their souls go I think it was more about letting 'them' go and be at peace I think? Something like that, but like you Hayley, I too was in tears watching that.

Sounds more familar(sp)

I think its such a loverly thing to do.... think once i'm feeling "more ready" i'll do it.
And i love Jases suggestion of the tree

This may sound silly but whats the memory box?

Tam · Sep 17th, 2006, 00:32 AM

I would imagine it is a little box where you keep little reminders of who you have lost......anything that you have from them or reminds you of them, i.e pictires, scans, and so on xx

I have a memory box from our ectopic ordeal inside I have:

The cards & ribbons off the bouquets of flowers I received from friends
My hospital band
A note my OH left for me on the TV in my room
I have pressed flowers from the bouquets to be put in glassed frames
Some of the information/details I was given

Quite little but some things I held on to.

I think that is really sweet, another good idea!! xx
