She was Hilarious and so innocently daft- she wasn't the sharpest and everyone loved her for it.
She was the most super Mum to her daughter (b1997)
And she loved me loads.

Novacane, I do feel for you. My first husband committed suicide shortly after we got divorced. Not due to me as it was him that wanted to end our marriage. It has to be the hardest way to lose somebody that you love as there is no consolations to them dying. what i mean is when my mum died, we found she had cancer and know that she would have suffered so much. Her death was not directly caused from the cancer, but I know that had she lived she would have suffered the pain and misery of it.
When you lose somebody close to suicide, you always ask what you could have done, did you fail them, why didn't they turn to you for help, etc,etc.
Did your friend leave a note of any kind Nova? My husband didn't, therefore nobody knows what drove him to do it. I desperatley hope her little girl is ok. People can also be so heartless when talking about somebody who commits suicide as you may have experienced. I always remember a family member saying to me "WELL IT WAS HIS CHOICE". Yes in his desperate state of mind it was, but he didn't chose to feel that way.
I am really sorry if I have gone on too much about my own experience Nova, I just feel so sad when I read posts like yours as I know just how much it hurts.
Hope you enjoyed your wine, remember the good times, play some music that she used to like, and if you feel like it have a bloody good cry.
