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
It kills me everyday that I can’t see my Grandson, the only part of Kyle left here on earth – I had hoped his mother would find a heart and some compassion before now – his Dad’s family haven’t seen him since he was just 7 months old, despite trying over and over to make… Continue reading Cash’s 6th Birthday
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
Whilst we still don’t get to see you, know that you are loved and we are patiently waiting for your to find us my little Gingernut Biscuit. We love you so much and wish we could be together at Christmas. Enjoy this message from Santa. I am sorry that it only has your baby photo… Continue reading Merry Christmas Cash 2021
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
February 2021 saw a raging bushfire destroy the Perth Hills, including the area of Kyle’s Crash. When it was finally safe to go to check it out, I was totally devastated at what I saw. Things were burnt to a cinder and nothing but the concrete footing and metal bracket remained of the wooden cross… Continue reading Bushfire Devastation at Gidgigannup and the Perth Hills
