i have put up the photos of vivien’s funeral on flickr. Such a hard set to put up. Just cannot stop crying. How can it be that my sister is dead. in the end I still couldn’t actually look at the pictures, so they are tagged with everyone there. i also decided to use my vivien tag again, as it was all about her, how much we loved her and how much we miss her. We all spent the service sobbing, and at the wake, deliberately celebrated being a family and friends and her life. So if we look happy, smiling and laughing, they are all bought with much effort. And in part to rebalance after such an emotionally devastating experience. It doesn’t mean we loved her less.
I can’t yet look at the pictures, but they are done.
Will look at them and think of you all xxxxx
Lots of love all over again. xxxxx
There were no pictures at Katrin’s funeral. In a way that is a shame, as that was the day we all gathered to say goodbye and perhaps we should have commemorated that.
I am not surprised you cannot look at them. I hope in years to come they will bring you comfort at least.
And it’s not possible. They can’t just disappear like that. Didn’t ought to be allowed. Hugs.
i got chris to take them. it felt odd, but think it is a good thing they are there. you see, not just collecting memories for us, but for the children, who forget so quickly.
and hugs back to you as well.
