So... I know you're still grieving. I always mean to say something, but I've been fuzzy in the head lately. I'm so tired. And there's so much rubbish, I realise, you could do without hearing from people and I don't want to say that shit to you... but I do wish to acknowledge your loss, so please forgive the inadequacy / awkwardness of my words.

I can't imagine losing someone so important. My dearth of experience leaves me with the hackneyed description of it as 'losing a part of oneself forever'. I do, however, know pain. And with all pain, I guess, all one can do is keep busy, keep moving, and wait for the day to arrive where it just doesn't hurt so badly anymore. I'll be sending you good thoughts to get to that day. x
