New update on my reclusive neighbours.....

Do take time to look after yourself too Alie

Just back from Oxford again....think some things are sorted out but more to come.Oh what a business!!
Thank you everybody.

Sending you my best wishes, Alie I hope you manage to get some sleep.

What a tough time you're having, Alie. Sending you my best wishes

Still thinking of you, Alie. Take care.

Thanks - Alie

The very worst thing to have to cope with Alie.

Last night I spent about an hour on the phone to the Samaritans...both helpful friends here are away! I cried a lot.
But the man on the phone was so patient, and when I hung up I felt somehow lighter.

Today I have been in Oxford again and Jayne's partner was in a bit of a state, but things did improve, there were friendly visitors (family) and he has just texted me goodnight.
Tomorrow back again, and there will be a discussion about when/where/what as regards the funeral.....

Oh Allie - how are the children coping?

Alie - I am so glad that the listening ear of a Samaritan helped you through last night - how good that they are there. You can let it out to someone who is not also grieving.

Your son's partner sounds as though he is really appreciating your support.

Thinking of you.

Let us know when the funeral is; we can, at least, be with you in spirit.

Thought about you a lot, Alie, over the last few days. Look after yourself. xx

Thinking of you Alie.

I'm so sad for your loss, Alie. You are in my thoughts, and I'm sending hugs too. Please try to take good care of yourself

I'm so very sorry to hear of this Alie - glad that The Samaritans were able to help you in your time of need

You are a strong woman, dear Alie but this is such a hard time for you, and you know we are all with you in spirit. I am glad the Samaritians are walking with you too. Sending my love.

Alie my thoughts are with you too, it must be so difficult having to deal with all the things that need sorting out, when you must just want to grieve.
look after yourself (hugs)

You're in my thoughts dear Alie. just wish I could do more to help. ((((Hugs))))

Alie thinking of you {{{hug}}}

I'm glad the Samaritans were able to lift you up a little, Alie. We're all here ready to provide that virtual arm round your shoulder and to listen.

Alie

Allow me to send continued thoughts of understanding your sadness and the duties involved when this happens. Such an awful time for Jayne's partner and children, your loved ones .

I wish you and your family eventual peace but for now do try to take of yourself .

I'm trying. Thank you all

AlieO Please make sure that you take care of YOU! I think that's the one thing that we all tend to forget in our anxiety to ensure that everyone else is all right!

New update here on the neighbours!
This afternoon I have seen my woman neighbour going off in what looked like a small removal van. Did not see the man, although I have been told he came back from hospital a week ago.

It rather looks as if they might have left, at least temporarily.
What next? If the house gets boarded up then they are definitely not there!

Fingers crossed AlieO that they have been rehoused or whatever, at least that'll be one less thing to worry about...... ((Hugs)) x
