My Dad dies 14 years ago and I miss him more than ever but I know that he would have been proud of me for making the move to Australia to give my family the chance of a better life.

I will be thinking of our friend who died in the Tsunami along with his girlfriend and she has not yet been found.

A close friend's mum who died last night.

Most of all my mum who died 16 years ago and who was my best friend as well as my mum.

I won't be online now until after Christmas and I want to wish everyone a Happy Xmas wherever you are.

Love Suzy xx

Pollyana

My friend Neil, we went through high school together, dating each other's friends, telling each other our problems. He was killed in an accident 20 years ago, while at university. Taught me to love cricket, to love good rock music, and to love life.
My best mate's parents, both in their 40s, died of cancer - his dad left this world the same month I emigrated.
And my dear friend Michael, a depressive alcoholic who finally could cope with life no longer and committed suicide just over 2 years ago. He wanted me to get to Australia, it meant so much to him as he loved his adopted country so much. Sadly he passed away 5 weeks before I got here - at least he knew I had my visa and was on my way.
RIP - I miss you all - thanks for what you gave me.


=================================

And lets not forget Bundymum, whose courage inspired many of us in different ways, and whose fight for life has been closely followed on this forum.
---------------------------------------------------

Have no fear for me when I fly by night
For I may wander freely with the stars
And taste the wild intoxication of heaven
Have no fear for me in the wind and rain
For I am one with the sky and the racing clouds for ever.

I know that in an hour begrudged of time
My spirit, whirling through the skies,
May come to rest upon the edge of darkness;
But have no fear for me, for waking
I shall discover the brightness of eternity

(Suzy Moss - "Pilot")
