Overwhelmingly sad. I am too sad to comment. Except to say , well, I will say it later, I will try to be with you, emotionally if not physically.

well it'd be foolish of me to say that i know what you're going through. i don't. all i know is that you've been a wonderful friend to me, i hope i can repay the favor. we all need someone to lean on at some point

thanks chris. i appreciate it. i'm sure i'll be doing some leaning, as i feel like i'm going a little crazy at the moment. even though i've changed my clothes twice, and had a shower, i can't get that hospital smell out of my head - 11 thousand maniacs - paul.

I'm so sorry, my dear friend - as you said so well in your poem, she is free from harm (and free from pain). I know there will be difficult times ahead but I know you'll be strong for her and also for Jessica. Bless Martin and your other friends who will step up. Rest in peace, Pauls mam. Sincerely with hugs, Mary Ann

thanks mary ann. even with two jumpers on, and the fire on full i still feel cold tonight. martin is acting as a buffer between me, and all the people i'm going to lose my temper with over the next few days - your blue brother - paul.

thanks harry. i just sent you an e-mail back explaining what happened in more detail. walking, or more accurately stumbling around in a drunken haze at the moment. but my mates are walking me through it - paul.

to the best pauly in the whole wide world....
you made me cry again! Im sorry for being such an arse.
Finally went searching for this, thought you'd write a piece for your mam....Yea tea cups.........some things get that way.....
Paulicus, i hope you find peace in sleep and hope in waking....there is still hope left paul, maybe not much- but some.
orphaned by blood maybe, not orphaned by friends though.
never orphaned by friends, your too lovely.
im sorry...
how comes sorry is just not enough???

Losing someone special
is a terrible thing to bear.
It's the kind of shock for which we
simply cannot prepare.
One moment
we are smiling
And the next is filled with tears,
and losing one we love
does not get easier with years.
But please remember you have friends
to help you ease your way,
Who share your loss
and
care for you
Far more than words can say.

Hugs WASL

thanks ray. i'm sorry about your grandmother. though i have relatives, they are of no help whatsoever, and i'm the last of the family line. my friends are stopping me from hiding under blankets, and crossing roads without looking for traffic. give your mom a hug from me mate. you never know how long you've got - paul.

thanks lee. i'll get back to you. still dealing with people i don't want to deal with, calling me by my first name, then presenting me with a bill. and people from the church talking to me like i've suddenly become stupid, just because my mam's died - i wish it was summer....... it's always harder to hide under a blankie when it's summer - paul.

Wow, I'm greatly sorry for your loss Paul. I'm glad you had the courage to write your thoughts on paper. As you say she's free from harm. I can relate to the loss and "hospital smells". I lost both of my grandparents in a 16 month time frame, and it seems as though they were living, but not living their life wholefully. Sometimes your loved ones have been suffering for so long, that only for them to be free of it, is to leave this lifetime. Though your mother isn't here, she's lives within you.
You're a great friend Paul, and I'd like for you to keep faith.

Its cool. 60's music...if it can get you out of funk, then go for it!
I believe that music is medicine for the heart.
But Paul, you're a strong, honest, and brilliant man, and the GP World hurts when one of our poets are; through time you'll heal.
