I have a friend in the village who is on the PTA, the cinema association, she runs event, she does those stupid fucking muddy things, she is hands on in everything. This is the type of person she is. It makes her feel connected, maybe even important. If her child died, she’d be one of the people you’ve just described.

The fact that you are a different type of person isn’t a problem with the world. In fact, if every grieving Mother was like this there would be too many competing to be the most extraordinary and the whole situation would become ugly. You’re coping the way that works for you and that comes with no expectations.

Stop being so tough on yourself and enjoy being you, we certainly enjoy you. You lift the moods of many every time you write.

I don’t even know how she got up there and delivered such an incredible speech and retained her composure. What an amazing woman and mother, with such a valuable message – let us hope like hell her daughter’s death was not in vain.

“An ordinary woman exhibiting the best of humanity on one of the worst days of her life”. Nicely put Wolfie, but it’s really hard not to hate those Neo Nazi fuckers.
