It is SO helpful when others do. Makes grief feel more normal, and manageable for those of us sitting quietly. I'm not surprised you've had more hits on that post.<br />Thankyou.<br />I'm sure there are many people who knew your brother who couldn't make it to the funeral. Putting the eulogy up online offers them some sense paying their last respects.restructuregirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05508924008921911527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167359877593274626.post-69046560864174540662010-06-08T19:22:29.617+10:002010-06-08T19:22:29.617+10:00Thanks again to Connie & Penny.Thanks again to Connie & Penny.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04571161252530964470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167359877593274626.post-28530697676271705802010-06-08T18:04:45.264+10:002010-06-08T18:04:45.264+10:00I think blogging about your loss and grief also he...I think blogging about your loss and grief also helps others who are reassured that what they are feeling is not wrong or strange. It's something we all have to go through and for me it's an honour when someone wants to share their experience and sadness. There's not much anyone can do but be there for you, and my being there is only virtual, but if it helps some, then I am glad.flexnibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09571073352491626815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167359877593274626.post-28923756006100195692010-06-08T16:14:07.143+10:002010-06-08T16:14:07.143+10:00I agree - it is your space.

His was the first death in my close family, the first dead person I had seen and so it helped me to look back at photos of him as a boy, a young man, a newly wed husband, Dad etc etc. Telling the story in whatever way is appropriate at the time is part of remembering and honours the person who has gone.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822323208525809653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167359877593274626.post-75821989457480815822010-06-08T14:13:08.300+10:002010-06-08T14:13:08.300+10:00Thanks:)Thanks:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04571161252530964470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167359877593274626.post-70323391869779796982010-06-08T13:47:51.600+10:002010-06-08T13:47:51.600+10:00Your blog is your space... you should use it for w...Your blog is your space... you should use it for whatever purpose you choose.
