Your sentiment was probably enough for Billy bonny lad. I have made a donation in your name as I already donate to Cancer Research.
Well I'm back in one piece lads. Went ok & I'm ok. Thanks again to you all. I can see it's going well. I left here brothers in the Toon after a few beers as they seem to be set for an all nighter. Been drinking beer from NUFC glasses today & it was just as nice. I sat by her coffin stroking her face & wept so much that the silk cloth was stained. However, life can now move on. When they played our tune in the church I nearly broke my heart. The good & funny times will be remembered. Can I pass on my condolenses to all of you who have gone through the same thing. I saw what it did to my dad & I'm pleased that Janie didn't suffer the same. ****ing top, top boys the lot of you. xxx
**** sake Billy. Your post just brought a tear to my eye. Not a good luck in front of my 14 year old who I'm sure thinks I'm a tit as it is. May your God be with you Billy mate. You are and have been an inspiration this week.
Nice to know your beloved Janie had a good send off. Thoughts with you, Billy. > What was "our tune", Billy?
The Janie threads have really touched me. So wonderful to see camaraderie of the highest order. I lost my father to motor neuron disease a few years back. I was his primary care giver, and spent 6 years walking with him to his next journey. It was a beautifully hard part of my life. To Billy: My thoughts are with you at this time. It gets easier, and the pain goes to be replaced with love and appreciation for the time you shared. Day by day, week by week, it gets better and easier!!! Once again all, you are a great testament to yourselves and your clubs!!!
You have my total admiration G-Rilla for being a carer, I wish I could do it but I cant. My 86 year old mum had to go into care 12 months ago this week with dementia and needs 24 hour care. I visit her every Wednesday and will be spending Christmas day with her but its hit and miss with her mood, today was a bad one, agression and ange in my direction. I was my dad today so acted the part and calmed her down. To take it 24 hours a day would be to much for me so well done to you.
Quite by chance I just made a CD today with that tune on. Keep the faith Billy, you know there's always people on not606 here for you if you need anybody to talk to.
Thanks David, to be fair he spent a lot of time in the latter parts in a care home. Yet I was his only support, a very humbling experience. That's a very tough one Dave. My thoughts go out to you. One thing I learnt through this process is patience. Take it day by day, and deal with what's in front of you on that particular day. Personal frustration only muddies the water. Good luck mate.
LOL, that made me chuckle. Well, not so much an our tune, more mine to her. I used to sing it to her at the karaoke. Aerosmith, Don't Wanna Miss A Thing. That's the one mate.
Don't get paid till the 22nd of January, but I'll make sure to donate some of my wage then. RIP Janie. x
