My beloved daughter took her life in the early hours of this morning.

My first born, my joy, my best friend , my laughter, my tears

I am broken

I am sure that your friend and priest is familiar with the anger that is part of grieving. He, as we all do, understand this. I hope that you are able to find some small comfort in arranging fitting tributes to her for her funeral service; and gain strength from the high regard she was clearly held in. Difficult days, but we are all keeping you in our thoughts. flowers

Dear Annie xx

annie. Don’t worry about the anger, your friend and priest will know it’s a part of grieving. Please, please ask people who report FB comments to you to stop, you need no more hurt. Sending love.

Annie it's perfectly OK to be angry with God. He has broad shoulders and understands your pain. I vented my pain on Him when my son died. He loves you and if venting on Him helps then He will be OK with that.

I am not at troubled that I was angry , just should not have shouted. I know my daughter is healed . Healing always comes but not always in the way we hope for.

So very sorry Annie. Adding my love and good wishes to those from the team and everyone else x

Shout if you want to annie
Jesus shouted when he was angry.

I am sure the priest understands.

Anniebach Mon 06-Nov-17 19:32:02

Not troubled for shouting at a priest but for shouting at a dear friend , anyway he laughed . He saw me and my girls through the death of my husband, been with me through much sadness and joy.

We all understand, you are being so brave and I admire so much.
I hope the next few days are bearable for you and your D's family.

Son in law has changed his mind and doesn't want to choose the hymns and readings, I have done so now. Will discuss them tomorrow with Father M, he will approve so the order of service can be printed . Bearers chosen. Very little more to do just wait.

We are all still thinking of you annie and your beloved daughter and her family. Please continue to post and get help from wherever it comes. Ignore FB and any adverse comments they are not worth thinking about. Along with others on this thread I continue to pray for strength for you and your family to get through this terribly sad time. Wish I could do more ?

Dear Annie,
I don't post very often but I read a lot and I have always been impressed by your passion and integrity.
So I would just like to add my love and to let you know how moving and brave your words have been.
May you and your family find healing and peace xxx

So very sorry.

grannyqueenie Mon 06-Nov-17 22:59:08

Bless you Annie, I hope you’re able to get some rest tonight, you must be exhausted with so much to think about and many emotions and thoughts pulling you this way and that.
Thinking of you and your family such a lot, as are many others here. x
