Making A Difference-Your Legacy Will Live On

Ste just before you died you said you were worried you had not made a difference in your life.
I said to you- Ste you served in the Army you cared for disabled people in the NHS you fathered a son brought up five children and helped to raise my little girl but the most important thing was you had loved and you were loved with a passion.
 
Ste you- made a difference and I will continue your legacy in your memory.
 
Your legacy will live on-
 
I will be brave on my new journey without you and show courage in catastrophe as you did as a soldier
I will show people who are less fortunate that I care and will spend precious seconds with them 
I will continue to bring up my daughter with love and guide her with the advice you gave me whilst giving her the freedom to find her own path as you did but will be there when she needs my support .
I will continue your laughter and sense of humour by reminding myself that fun and joy can be found in the smallest of things.
I will continue your joy of music and sing and dance as much as I can in your name.
I will continue to love with a passion and form deep connections with special people in my life.
I will find the peace you never found-you thought you would find it on the beach in Goa but I think I will find peace in being happy bringing happiness to others and knowing you are at peace and waiting for me.
 
Ste you may be gone but your spirit lives on in me and I will make the difference for the both of us until we meet again in the next life or God's kingdom.
 
For Ste GBNF <3 x

That is so true, I am trying to live my life with the same regards to my soul mate what a special way to say I love and respect you ... Doing something worth while instead of letting your grief pull you under...

God Bless You

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
