It's weird that I'm reading this now cos I had a dream about the person I lost 5 years ago and right now I'm struggling to breathe. It happens like this. Sometimes I remember him and smile and other times I struggle to breathe. I think grief follows you to the end till you are somehow and hopeful reunited with that person again. When someone dies I think we learn that it's their presence we miss, we know this already but you learn deeply that their absence can leave you shipwrecked. Sending you all my love Michael ❤️

I can only imagine what it must have felt like.
