You have had a lot of heartache lately, but I wouldn"t be too hard on people who offer you condolences that you feel are not adequate. Most people do not really know what to say for the best in these situations, so they just do what they can. A well-known APAT member lost his father recently and I posted a message that I thought was totally inadequate compared with what I wanted to express, but I couldn"t think of something better. I would hope, though, that he didn"t think it was just shot off without any meaning, and I"m sure he didn"t. I would imagine that your friends want to communicate something to you but, like most people, are not skilled in this area.

Oh I do count this in, this is not what I meant, no one really is skilled in this area, so i not make a fuss bout the words really, but snappy is snappy and this was just new to me and quite shocking, bit awful actually when you are just grieving and have to defend yourself that you do. But it helps really, better getting upset than sad ;-)

I am currently going through this ( think i am who John is talking about) and i personally found every single message that someone has taken the time to send me utterly humbling.
For me, knowing that there are people out there who are thinking about me and my family is a massive comfort to me.
I am sending you all the thoughts and prayers i can. Its hard, and you sound like you are doing as much as you can.
Remember the love you felt. That is all that matters.
Huge love to you. Will be thinking of you over the coming days x

Awwwwwwwwww thank you ever so much for your kind words when you yourself are in the same situation. I am ever so sorry to hear this, my thoughts will be with you and my prayers. I shall light a candle for you and your dad tomorrow when I go to church

Yes all nice words I find incredible touching. I am easy to please actually, a normal sorry is already making me i don"t know feel less alone.
So please do all not think i am unthankful, the situation i talked about was no nice words, and was not a sorry. Was being told off sort of to be sad for my granddad as he was old and i should have expected this. And therefor with having expected it no reason to be sad as it is normal in a certain age.
Just to make this clear, otherwise I might seem like a selfish and unthankful brat
