    I thought the birth of the baby meant they already enjoyed the 'trying' times ;)

    Congrats Marty! Delighted for you!

    I've been doing a serious amount of thinking and I think I'm going to change my number. They haven't contacted me in a few days so I think they are bored already. After a good chat with the gardai, they said it could go on for over a year and because they are kids, it's going to be really difficult to even trace her, so I don't think it's worth the stress. I'm already stressed out over it!
    It's not good for me health wise either, I'm already at high risk of developing more ulcers and I'm about to start my second masters, so that's going to be even more stress! Ugh I hate making big decisions like this, but I think it's better for me now to just cut my losses and change.

    True! I'd imagine people being much more interested in the meat than the veg ;)

    (Watch from 38 second on.)



    In all seriousness though glad to hear you got the all clear.

    Congratulations Marty she's gorgeous.

    So how is everyone. Been busy busy with work and moving and the like but more or less settled now. Missing my friends and family a bit and depression has been at me a bit of late but other than that life's going really good. I did stand up comedy last night and had a ball with it. Definitely going to do it again soon.

    Was just out having a smoke and heard the cries of a kitten. There under me she'd were 5 little heads poking out from under me shed. As much as I hate cats they're pretty cute little feckers.
    Grown up pretty quick aswell. Reckon they're about 5 weeks old now.

    Oh god, I'm so sorry for your loss *hug*

    It will be okay, eventually. Not now, probably not for a long time, but it will, eventually.

    Spend time with your family. You sound like a fantastic support to your parents and wife, but you need somebody to talk to, too.

    Maybe have a look at the bereavement forum here on boards, but feel free to talk here when you need to. You don't have to always be strong for your family. You're hurting, and you're allowed to show and feel it. X

    Feel free to rant away man. Really sorry about your brother, losing a family member is a terrible thing to have to deal with, and it's not unusual to just feel numb or to feel you have to be strong for the rest of them, just remember that you need your own time to grieve and to deal with how you're feeling too.

    Like G_S said, the bereavement forum here is a great resource here too, and people there may be able to help you deal with it and help with things you may not even have thought of yet.

    And we're here too any time you need to talk.

    Still feel free to talk about it here, mate. We're here to listen.

    I never posted in it, but read the bereavement forum a lot when two people close to me died, aand I found it really comforting to know others understood.

    baron, first of all my sincere condolences on your loss. You're among friends here so feel free to vent away. As others have said there's a Bereavement forum here under Soc > Personal Issues.

    Look after yourself man.

    Condolences Baron. It's not easy to lose someone and unfortunately time is the only healer.

    Make sure you find some way to express your own emotions, being strong all the time doesn't help.

    Chest infection is fecking off.

    I was feeling so bad that I had to go home sick from work yesterday, so went to the gp today.

    Turns out that although my chest infection is almost gone, I now have a viral infection. So, bedrest, water and paracetamol. I've been signed off work, but can't afford to miss anymore work, so I'm still gonna go to work tomorrow.
