I'm glad you felt able to post this DB sad

I always think of those words of the Bard at times like this

"Give sorrow words. The grief that does not speak Whispers the o'erfraught heart and bids it break.'

On this day 5 years ago my lovely SIL rang us from holiday in Japan before proposing to DD3. ??smile

Hugs Daphne ? It happened in 1975 for us.

So sad for you DB. I can't imagine the grief you must have felt. Thinking of you flowers

And I am horrified that that it is going on happening ( a lot) in spite of all the protocols that were said to be going to be put in place.Obviously, you can't prevent every single death, but we are well behind other countries on baby deaths/stillbirth.

rosesarered Tue 01-Nov-16 08:34:54

( not behind ALL countries, but quite a lot in the West.)

DaphneBroon Tue 01-Nov-16 08:43:02

On a happier note though while I really appreciate your kind sentiments and thank you for your ?, but life goes on and if those sad days had not happened, I would probably not be looking back with joy at DD3's engagement 5 years ago today.

Perhaps this thread could be for ALL anniversaries, poignant or happy.

What in the church I remember was referred to as "our year's mind". smile

I hope this one posts DB, as the previous 3 didn't.
