Am still missing you like crazy Karl & wish you were here with me so much it’s so hard being here on my own I thought we were going to be growing old together not one of us getting left behind on their own just wanting you & forever wishing you were here with me 😢 sorry I have just fought so hard not to cry while writing this for you but the tears & sadness won I can’t hold them back I hate this life without you we had so much to look forward to doing it’s very hard now you are no longer here to both be sharing the things we used to even just watching tv or a film every single thing we just take for granted until suddenly the love 🧡 of your life who you have been with since for me being 15 years old & then taken away from me & I am left all alone without you my love my husband my friend my everything all gone just left with memories & talking to you looking at the photograph on the wall of us all together on holiday our little family & telling you all different things telling you about carer’s not doing what I need them to etc just everyday things as though you’re here listening to me having a moan as usual but I just want you to talk to me telling me about things you have been doing or what you needed to moan about or us laughing at silly little things that had happened while we weren’t together at that moment like if you were doing food shopping on your own or if I didn’t feel like going to the club Saturday night’s we had a great time most of the time with pool, meat raffles name cards or sat talking either with friends or just on our own, I miss going on days out or holidays, I miss us just going in the car just for a drive you taking us to places we had never heard of or seen before it’s so sad when I have to go to the bus stop on my wheelchair waiting for the bus seeing people in their cars & hearing them playing music or radio on thinking that’s what we were like & we were going past people waiting for a bus & now I am waiting at bus stop wishing I wasn’t x

Love you so much duck 🦆 I am so lost it’s just so unfair after all the fighting you did to try beat that awful awful wicked cancer it got it’s way & took you away from me I hate it we had so much more we wanted to be doing together we were meant to grow old together you were too young yes we did lots together as a family but had a far lot left to do & loads of time we have missed with each other & family & friends we still had lots of memories to make, have fun, laugh cry even the odd argument whether over something silly or more but it’s all memories good & bad but it was our memories we should have been making together & they were all cruelly taken from us but the worst thing is it took you my husband, my friend, my other half, my soulmate, my mr duck 🦆, I am & will miss you every minute of every single day I love 🧡 you forever until we meet again God Bless You Duck 🦆 love your Mrs Duck 🦆 Kath xxxx 🥰 🕊️🙏 💙 🤍🦆💔 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 😢😚

I love ❤️ you so much Karl I really wish you were here with me I miss that we can’t enjoy our lives together anymore going out for trips to wherever you could think about going to, I even miss having the chance to go food shopping with you all the times I couldn’t be bothered & now wish I had the chance to, I wish we could go on the fantastic holidays we’ve had to go this country where we could take woof woof Alfie & Clarke us all together as a family like we have or a holiday abroad the 3 of us or with Mam or your Mam & Dad all these fantastic holidays we’ve been on no matter which even though I moaned about some places didn’t look how I expected but once we were there like the next day they were always better than I first thought I think most was having the unpacking to get sorted & find places where items were going to be put & trying to keep it looking nice & tidy because you know what I was like wanting things neat when maids came in can you remember that time we were in Portugal & we had food & bits left & I drew that picture of maids with an arrow pointing to the maid & the food so they sort of understood what we meant for them & you laughed at it some to do with the drawing & some saying they won’t understand & they would just throw them you said I was a silly c** they wouldn’t understand just bin them & I said no but I wonder if they ever got it or if they took them anyway or did do what you said they would do & just binned them anyway haha we had a great holiday the first time we went to Portugal we packed loads of excursions in like we had loads of great days out each time we went to America & you really surprised me with your driving it was just like we lived there you just knew how to drive properly even though it was opposite sides to England you were just so calm & just got us to where we were going just as if you were going to somewhere here just except the time we were coming back from a theme park & that woman honked at you & called you a white hon
