I would truly rather give the benefit of the doubt than contribute to someone's unhappiness by making horrid comments.

I wish you the best Footie.

Erm, Jenexx, what about I defend Mel's right to solace on here, etc.. She knows more than anybody what I mean. I do not have to use any other words
Oh, I did not see you attacking anyone else that had something to say to, or about Amy, and until she posted on the thread, everybody showed their feelings and support for Mel.

They say that life is fleeting; I know that this is true.
I left this world so quickly, with no goodbye to you.
I know how much you miss me, your tears fall ever light.
The pillow where you lay your head, Is wet with them at night.
I know your heart is hurting, the words we left, unsaid.
I love you's left unspoken, are spinning in your head.
The strength that I have carried, that served to make you whole.
Remains to make you stronger, within your grieving soul.
For you see, while you were weeping, on the day I passed away
At the graveside near the flowers, where my loved ones knelt to pray.
An angel came to see me; she took me by the hand,
She led me to a kingdom in a very distant land.
As I look down from the heaven, and see you standing there
Your heart so ever burdened with more weight than it can bear.
I long to bring you comfort, I long to give you peace,
I long to hold you closely, and cause all your tears to cease.
The joy I've found in heaven goes far beyond compare.
The love that's so elusive, Can be found here everywhere.
The light is softly shining. There's no storm clouds here or rain.
There's no tear drops found in heaven. There's no suffering, there's no pain.
You needn't be so troubled, Stay close to God and pray
That someday we'll be together, one bright and glorious day.
So my love, you shouldn't question my dear you need not cry
I've gone to be with Jesus I really didn't die.

Thank you all for your words of kindness and for those who have lit candles. I appreciate the support friends and others give each other on these boards at times like these. Those who are on facebook with me only have to scroll and will see the heartbreaking conversations between myself and my Auntie. This Uncle is more than just an Uncle, he is a friend and he is my godparent and has had a big hand in helping to raise me and to see someone so special going through so much is almost unbearable, yet I'm finding an inner strength. Thank you again every word is a comfort x

To watch a beloved person is torture for the watcher, to lose someone quickly is shocking, but more tolerable to the person who doesnt have to suffer a long time. You have had both happen to you in a short time, take care not to be broken by it, take one day ata time, and think how they would like you to go on. While you are alive, they are not fully gone, so remember them with kindness.

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece of s***
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the right side of life...
(Come on guys, cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the bright side of life...
(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(I mean - what have you got to lose?)
(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the right side of life
