- "I do relate to this, very much. As, again.. I imagine that many of us can. I once heard somebody say that a parent doesn't deal with the loss of their child, they simply learn to continue living with their grief.. i'd never heard any pain described in this way before, always hearing the age old sentiment that it all gets easier with time. I found the idea of the former more of a comfort because it allowed me to accept that maybe this pain won't ever go away, instead of waiting for the magical day when I wake up and it's all gone away. When you realise and accept that it could always be a part of you it becomes a thousand times lighter to carry. I hope this makes sense and sounds hopeful, as it's meant to.. "

- "Rachel I love this. My instant thought actually went to the 7/7 terrorist attacks on the London underground of about 6 years ago, for some reason.. you've written this in such a way that it's relateable for so many of us I think.. really, I got something from reading this. And it's important, which I envy. I don't seem to be able to write about important things. well done :)"
