I'm waiting for some jewellery wire for necklaces to arrive - it should be here tomorrow - but in the meantime I thought I'd try and choose the buttons. There's just too many to choose and there are some more somewhere - I have a box with my "bestest" ones in but I can't find it at the mo. Harumph!
I was trying a bt of distraction therapy really - I should have been writing a letter for the sympathy card on my desk but couldn't face it. I just don't know what to write - in fact I don't even know if I should write. I stopped to help at an RTA on Saturday evening and there was a fatality. I'm a bit of a mess about it all - there wasn't much I could do more than hold their hand and comfort them whilst the emergency services arrived but should I write to the family to let them know that someone was there? - put their minds at rest. But would that really help? Am I doing it more for me than them? I'm wondering whether writing stuff down would be cathartic. I think I have to do it now or I'll possibly regret it but I don't even know where to send the letter to. Making the card was a bit of therapy in itself.
Sorry to end on a bit of a downer - lets hope I'll have some nice button jewellery and a sunnier outlook to share with you tomorrow.
Wot a lot of buttons:-)
ReplyDeleteHuge hugs to you - I would write everything down (it helps me), you can then decide on whether or not to send the letter later on - one step at a time.
Thinking of you xxx
Oh my goodness what a horrible experience - hoping you are ok ((hugs)).
ReplyDeleteA bit late to comment but if I'd been bereaved in that way I'd be glad to know that someone was there & cared enough to try to help. The Police will probably be able to advise on delivery or pass on for you if you decide to send. (Hugs) for you.
ReplyDeleteDTB I would be grateful to know that there was someone there holding my loved ones hand in there time of need. I would write it and see how you feel afterwards. Jaqui x
