i lost my father in law a month ago now, and my best friend lost his mom 2 weeks ago. its just been a rough time lately. my deepest condolences, and may he rest comfortably in peace where ever he may be now.
 
Such a tragedy. I cannot fathom how you are feeling right now, but here go my deepest condolences to you and all your close ones. keep it together and it'll be easier for all of you to walk trough this.

And also, I hope you can bring the culprit to justice.
 
I cannot imagine how you must be feeling right now, I offer you my biggest condolences and sympathy.

It must have taken a lot of courage to make this thread and you have my utmost respect for being able to speak about this on here. I wish I could offer you some advice but I'm no expert in coping with such grief.

All I can say is take your time & be strong bro' you have plenty of mates here, we will still be here for you whenever you feel like you are ready to take a more active part in the forums.
 
My deepest condolences to you and your family and wish you and your family all the strenght to cope with this enormous tragedy.
 
Oh Dave that is horrible. Hopefully the cock that did this will go down for a long time, but I doubt that would do a great deal towards easing the pain. Unfortunately you now have to go through the horrible process that is grieving. Counsellors can help with that but everyone is different and grieve in their own way. I'm sure you have lots of support around you and everyone here is wishing you and your family the best.
 
Really sorry to hear about your brother Dave and my condolences to the rest of your family. I know you had a difficult relationship with him, in the past at least, and this will probably impact on how you deal with his death. But you will eventually come to terms with it. Time is the only thing that really heals the wounds.
 
Man, I felt sick reading this and thinking about my own brother and I how I'd feel and I can't even begin to imagine what it must be like. You and your family have my heartfelt condolences and I hope that in time, you will learn to come to terms with such a tragic set of events.

My deepest condolences, and i also during reading thought of my brothers.

Really sorry. I hope that dirtbag will learn a lot of pain during jailtime

We are with you, your family and your brother in our thoughts. May you all find peace
 
I'm really sorry for the terrible tragedy that knocked on your door. My deepest condolences to you and your family.
I think you did a good thing to share this with us all here at GTP and hope our words will be of some help to you.
 
My deepest condolences to you and your family Dave. I know the pain will be unbearable right now but it will lessen with time. There is nothing I can say to change what has happened or stop it hurting but try your best to help your family and friends and let them help you too. I really can’t imagine how you are feeling and how angry you are but be patient and justice will be served.

We all experience grief and loss through our lives but to lose a brother at such a young age is so unfair and can’t be rationalised. My Nan died a few years ago which was a terribly difficult time and I still miss her and get upset when I think about her but we did get through it even if the loss never really goes away.

Hang in there mate.
 
Thanks for the kind words everyone.

It's still playing heavilly on my mind but over the weekend I've managed to keep myself busy and spent a lot of time with close friends who were on holiday when it happened but arrived back on Saturday. It's still a living nightmare but it has been easier to bear the last couple of days. we still can't set a date for the funeral though because they can't release his body until the defence have done thier own autopsy or had sufficient time to conduct one. It doesn't help though, I'm going to be back at work before I know when we'll bury him at this rate. My manager at work has told me to take as long as I need, but I don't want to be sat at home doing nothing because that's when it's hardest to deal with. I think I'll be back in next week, but nothings set in stone in a situation like this, I should be okay to work next week though.
 
It may do you good to get back to work and keep busy even if you're not that productive. It's horrible to accept but the world does keep on going while this is happening so although you need to give yourself time to go through the grief process it's best to keep moving even if it's just going to the shops or the gym. I'm sorry the funeral date can't be set yet, it's understandable but that mustn't make it any easier.

It really helps to talk with someone face to face so make sure you do that even if it is difficult, I'm sure through this you'll find out who your true friends are and they will support you.
