I'm not surprised your mate is upset. When my wife died, one of the hardest parts was me ringing all our friends and family with the bad news, it sounds so surreal when you hear yourself tell them and you have to endure the upset every time you let someone know. A very difficult time.13-07-2018, 09:16 PM

I hope you had people to lean on during your time of grief Judd

It's weird isn't it .. how the world still seems to keep turning with trivial inconsequentials, as if they matter , when your own world has just stuttered and come to a stop.
Hard, very hard to relate to others and the world.
I felt like that, and very lost, when I told my step-dad, and my brothers .. and then had to tell mum herself that she only had 3 to six months left to live.
