I lost it today

Did a funeral today and omg it doesn't usually bother me too much, but when I saw the 2 black horses pulling a beautiful carriage I just burst into tears !! whats up with me or was it beacause it was just so beautiful   

i dont know how you do i be crying all the time

Aww Hun it can't be easy dealing with grieving people. Xx

I don't usually take much notice Steve but like today there are times when if I am a bit low then it does.
The horses were gorgeous jet black with feathers on their heads, I had to go and have a sneaky stroke when everyone had gone in   

i went to my friend dad funeral (i didn't know the bloke really) i went to support everyone like you do my mates kids and brothers was cry i set me off 

have to go to a lot of funerals - comes with the job but some are just beautiful

Yes Ella this was beautiful, and the coffin was gorgeous (if you know what I mean!)   

That's strange I always feel quite tearful around horses anyway, missed opportunities in my case.

I always find it's a lot worse when they are younger x

You too Ella?
Yes that must be the worst

no hun, i'm an end of life home carer, so not too dissimilar xx

Yes another one that must get emotional x

Hats off to you both, I couldn't do either job   

I would have cried too   

I am a very emotionless person and I can't cry wish I could. As most of you know I recently buried my sister.
Emma her middle daughter qualafied as a Dr 2 years ago, so she has seen and performed post mortums. However she took my 82 year old year old mum to see her at the mortuary. My mother was devasted, I don't understand why she did not wait until the under takers where they would make her up a bit but that is life x

Ooh not nice Buddy no would of been better to have waited until the undertaker had prepared her xxx

Totally agree, Imez I am not close to either of them but even so, mother was upset enough about her daughter dying before her
xx

Funerals/death never a nice situation
