Dear Emma

Tired. Broken. Lost.

That’s how I’ve felt every day since losing you. I don’t think I will ever accept what has happened, and that you are gone.

My brother

How I wish this was another of your jokes, I don't think I'd even mind if it was. But here we are, 8 months on, and the many people I think may be you, have always turned round & never been you.

To my brother,

There isn’t a single day I don’t think about you. My heart just isn’t full anymore. I wish I could of saved you, we all do. I should of asked you if you thought about leaving! I didn’t because I didn’t think you ever would. I know you suffered but I didn’t ever think it would come to this.

Dear Flynn,

I miss you. In everything I do, I miss you.I will never understand why you chose to go, if you fully understood what you were doing. You were so young. It’s been a year, and I’m still trying to come to terms with the fact that you’re gone forever.

Dear Arthur,

I have hated every day since you left. Anything I hold in my hand I want to throw across the room. I cannot register the fact you are no longer alive. I miss hugs. I miss being a big sister to you.

Hello Patrick,

I am sorry we did not get to finish our conversation or that you did not take up my invitation to come and stay for a while.

I know you were angry. I know you were ‘stuck’. I know you had enough.

You were inside trying to reach out….and we were outside trying to reach in.

Hello Brian,

It has been a while since I last conversed with you. You were such a good conversationalist and story teller. We had very happy memories and funny stories to tell, which you told in your own special way.

My baby brother,

Your extraordinary presence still haunts me nearly 2 years on. You were magic. It’s incredible (but not surprising) by how much you continue to inspire me, its bittersweet to think how much more you would have done if you had only chosen to stay.

I miss you. Every day. Every minute. I am so desperate to hold onto everything and anything about you. I try and remember how it felt to sit next to you, how your voice carried throughout the house, how you played the piano to reflect your mood of the day. There’s so much I painfully miss and carry with me.

Dear Snoop

It’s nearly 2 years since you’ve been gone and although it feels like just yesterday we were chatting about Christmas presents and what we’d get mum, it feels forever since I’ve heard your belly laugh and seen your cheeky little grin.

To my dear brother

There is not a single hour that passes where I don’t think of you. The pain you were in and our desperation to “fix it” you had suffered for so long I struggle to even contemplate how that must of felt.

To my sister H

Sometimes I have to ignore the indescribable blackness and sorrow that has has engulfed my world since you died. I think of you and just swallow that tight feeling in my throat. I push it away because it's too much to bare. I hug your nieces tightly and move through the day as best I can.

To my lovely brother,

Today marks the sixth month that you have been gone, and yet I still have not accepted your death. I am not coping as I should, and I am in fact lying to myself every single moment of the day, telling myself that you will come back one day…
