its been eleven months thats flowen by grief has set in. the time has gone fast and my grief is setting into my piece. something that i can't show off its need to be carried in silence a good way to carry around. i like watching you dad growing up and old with my mum. for the past 33 out of my 36 years. i'm good at keeping grief to myself and will go on loving the great surgent who had a great way of parenting and loved my brother and i the same in sometimes when he was in that mood. i never felt less .loved or felt unwanted. its funny i felt wanted by your family before the adoption than unwanted by the family afterwards and it was nasty of dad family not wanting to come to my wedding

I remember when I went on my first holiday without my parents. I was 15 and Sue ( Barry's Cousin) and I went to Stay with Barry and Denise. They took us sight seeing around Sydney. Spent New years eve at Sydney Harbour and watched while Barry talked a Jumper Down from the train Bridge. was a real eye opener. I had a few to many and got up at 4 in the morning to get a drink, Well the bottle of coke was half frozen when i opened it sooo it exploded all through the kitchen. Barry and Denise got up to see me standing on the Kitchen bench trying to clean the coke off the ceiling. Still makes me laugh when I think about it, was a great holiday back in 1983. R.I.P Barry

My man was a loving, kind and generous man.We were together for 33 years, but never married. We were more committed than most married couples. We had great plans for our retirement, but you were cruelly taken away from me. What am I to do now without you? I'm totally lost without you. You know, you are the air that I breath.....you are the blood that runs through my veins.......you are the man of my dreams. Everything seems a lot dimmer in my life. Love you babe....Together Forever Never Apart.
