I never need a special reason to visit Kyle, sometimes it’s just because I want to! We don’t always take the Fur Babies with us, but they love it when we do. I always wonder about Kyle’s Dog, Ballzac, he would be very, very old if he is still with us – I hate that… Continue reading Just Because….
Mother’s Day has never really been a big deal for me – especially as my children became adults and were caught up with their working lives, partners lives and so on. For me Christmas was always the time I treasured more. With that said, they would always at least make contact to wish me a… Continue reading 8th May 2022 – Mother’s Day
My Mum and Dad were visiting Perth for my Mother’s Birthday. They stayed a few nights with us and we took them on a Swan River Cruise to the wineries in the Swan Valley and for a Lunch at Sandleford Winery. Whilst they were visiting I took them to Pinnaroo to see Kyle, and my… Continue reading Nana and Granddad Jock’s Easter Visit – 16th April 2022
Every birthday is bitter-sweet since Kyle died and I don’t get to see little Cash. Because it’s always sad for me and I cry when I visit Kyle (at the crash site in Gidgigannup, at his Memorial Rock at Pinnaroo, or at the dunes in Peasholm St Dog Beach). I decided that this year I… Continue reading YaYa’s (Kyle’s Mum)Birthday 2022
Closely following the Anniversary of Kyle’s Death on 24th Jan each year, the anniversary of his funeral (probably the worst day of my life having to let my son’s body go) flashes next. I don’t always come to visit on this day – I try to be kind to myself and just do what I… Continue reading 4th Feb 2022 – 6th Anniversary of Kyle’s Funeral
The Compassionate Friends of WA always send me a card of comfort at this time of year. Every day without my son is difficult and some days are worse than others. I think this time of year is probably the hardest of all to even get out of bed. The 24th January 2016 changed our… Continue reading 6th Anniversary of Kyle’s Death
Vince and I are going to Darwin for my parent’s 60th Wedding Anniversary, so today I said my farewells to Christina and her family and went to Pinnaroo to put some flowers there and connect with Kyle before my trip. I miss you so much every single day, and life is so hard without you.… Continue reading Flowers for Kyle before Darwin Trip
Every day without Kyle is a challenge, and there is not a single day I don’t think of him and my heart aches. But on his birthday it is always a bit harder thinking of what might have been for him. Not getting to see his son, Cash, doesn’t help and it would mean so… Continue reading Happy 36th Birthday Kyle
I don’t always put up a post every time I visit Kyle, when I go I usually I take flowers, but sometimes if I am just passing I will still call-in without them. That said, my Sister, Jacky in Darwin got called and I happened to mention I was going – she wanted me to… Continue reading Flowers for No Reason from Aunty Jack and Mum
Even though today is Christina’s Birthday she had other plans so that meant I wasn’t able to catch up with her on the actual day. Vince and I took the ANIMAL (or R1200 BMW Adventure Motorbike) that we took around the world on our Honeymoon back in 2015-2016 for a run up to Gidgigannup to… Continue reading 28th August 2021 – Neena’s Birthday
