"After just forty days of war, we were forced to flee from our home to my father’s house, and only two days later, half of our home was bombed. During that time, two of my husband’s brothers were killed. Shortly after, my mother’s entire family was killed : 36 people in one day." -- @anghamrlkhalil

A voice from Gaza : Angham

Hello everyone, Here is Angham’s introduction, she has so …

Highly unlikely anyone on here knew him, but I wrote a wee piece about my Dad who died on May 16th.

If you've a few pennies down the back of the sofa, and the Air Ambulance is something you support, feel free to chip in.

Date set today for Dad's funeral. Now we have to choose photos/videos for the order of service and the ceremony, plus music.

My brain, being a complete dick, just thought "I should phone Dad, he'll have some ideas" followed by a screeching crashing realisation that no, I can't do that.

This stuff is really hard.

In rusted collars and empty chairs, I still live with my beloved ghosts

Mindfully curated possessions evoke the most potent memories of those who have gone. Two specific objects bring me particular comfort – though I never stop too much to ponder why

The Guardian
Keeping my dead wife’s books safe for our son helped me let go of guilt

Reading with him, I am reminded of the world of words his mother and I shared. I no longer feel so overwhelmed

The Guardian

Feeling absolutely numb when grieving the recent death of a parent isn't that strange, is it?

I'm empty.

Dear Dad, A Letter From Your Daughter

Dear Dad, I felt betrayed when you died, for not taking me with you. For leaving me behind. For abandoning me. I still feel that way. I think that is why I get angry at you. I feel like my life lacks meaning and purpose without you, and yet you enable the meaning and purpose that has inspired my courage and will to live. I wish you could tell me why you left. Why I had to be left behind. Your Daughter.
