El Guapo .....

[Pheasy]

I feel I need to say something here (crikes! should I do this ... I messed up so bad last time ).

I did not know your brother and truly cannot comment on his personality. Nor the relationship you had with or the nightmares that you suffer. I just wanted to share a feeling with you. :-4

My Mum, had a horrible life (no..nasty horrific life), the details I do not want to go into. But she always, stayed happy and positive. She always figured there was something better along the way. She never gave up on people and love. She always looked for the positive and never looked back ... too much. When she died, I know she died happy, cos she could look back on her life with no bitterness, anger or regrets. :-4 She died at 42 yrs, leaving behind a husband and 4 children who loved her deeply. She died knowing she left, children that knew right from wrong, and love - no bitterness.

I think this is why I bond so much with you guys here. I see my Mums strength in so many of you (WW, Jimbo, Suzy and so many more).... its a survival thing. I kinda got to the point in my life thinking, 'well just throw it at me- cos you ain't gonna get me'. If this is a test, I Won!! :wah:

That I got from my Mum.

El G, what I wanted to say is - fight and be strong for those you love. Do not disappoint them, by letting their death ruin your life. They would not want that. That would make them sad....Go out there and celebrate their life and enjoy your own. :-4

Good post Peasy. :-4

:yh_hugs Jesse. :yh_hugs

[Chezzie]

We just talked in private, much the same as whats been said here.

You have lots of friends Jess, lean on us if you need too :-4

[SuzyB]

Pheasy what a lovely post :-4



I wish you could of all 'met' Sam, he truly did have everything, he had the most wonderful sense of humour, a mini me of Jim! They'd of tortured you all :wah: He was incredibly good looking, and could silence a place when he hit the karaoke, the world is truly a sadder place without him.

He was a great Father, Son, Brother and friend, I was very grateful of the friendship that we had, I was very close to Sam, Jim and Sam spent a lot of time together and were best mates as well as cousins.

I know things are hard for you Jess and this is a horrible time of year to be without the people we love, but try to be positive, save all the good memories so they are all fresh to pass on to his children, they are getting to the age when they will want people to talk about their Daddy, try to remain strong for your Mum and Sam's children. :-4

[abbey]

That must have been a really hard post to make Jim,

no wonder Suze loves you. :-4

to every one that is saying poor jes ,you are not doing him any favours at all he needs to get on with life ,his brother and father would not want him wallowing in it like this



i wasted many years of my life doing exactly what jes is doing now ,my daughter had died and chantelle had been taken from me by her mother to america every thing i had was gone my partner my two daughters i was left with nothing i was just an empty shell ,i went to stay with jes and his family and his dad said to me what i'm saying now ... stop feeling sorry for yourself ,you have other members of your family that need you show a bit of backbone and get on with it





after two days of my brother casey dying ,i saw jes and i broke down his exact words to me were ,pull yourself together life goes on





jes i love you its been four years since sam died he meant everything to me that he means to you ,now its time to stop making sad posts like these and try to get on with things ,its your mum i feel sorry for she has nothing ,for her sake your wife's sake ,and for your daughters sake ... get on with life

It's really easy to tell someone to snap out of it. A person owns their own grief and wears it as best they can. If someone had been so callous as to say this to me about my mom dying I would beat them into the pavement. You can't know another person's grief. You may think you can but unless you're in their skin you have only an inkling. I wondered why Jesse told me about taking a break. I am afraid I would too. I hope this thread ends soon. I don't like these damn things.

No one is saying that Terri, Jim was incrediably close to Sam and they spent a lot of time together, he is hurting too, all he is trying to say that for his and his families sake to try and carry on 'living'.

[RedGlitter]

No Suzy, I know that. Jimbo's told me that before and I understand. I tell Jesse the same thing. Hang on I'll send a PM.

Terri, I was just trying to be positive here. And you know I understand that 'snapping out of it' is easy said and probably impossible. I just want him to try and look at a positive life .... its out there, we just need to work a little harder to find it :-4

[RedGlitter]

I understand Jimbo. You don't have to explain that. I do understand you. I'm sorry it came out as it did. Please accept my apology.

This sounds like family business and again I apologize to you, Suzy and Jimbo for stepping on toes. I was wrong.

Terri, please you have nothing to apologise for.

We are off to bed now night everyone.



PS. Jess please don't take offence it what Jim has said tonight, it took a lot for him to do that and family should stick together
