I sat out in the garden this morning for a few hours. Listening to music and watching the planes go overhead. It was an ok type of activity in the circumstances, till I cried so much I could no longer see the sky.
It’s a tough gig trying to remember our cheerful and hilarious dude right now. The unit time keeps seeping in and swamping any thoughts with horror, rage and questions.
One song I listened to was ‘Wrecking’ by Laura Veirs. A few years ago some Vancouver film students used it as a backing track for a short black and white film. The kids never liked watching it. They said it was way too sad. I always thought it reflected what life is like for dudes like LB.
Have thought of you, your family and LB so much over these last few weeks – stay strong – and keep those positive memories of LB foremost in your mind – they are what will keep you all going over the weeks to come.
Hi Sara,
It’s a lovely film.
We’re all thinking of you and LB here at Mencap.

Love the film too. Will be thinking of LB and you all, tomorrow and in the days ahead

Sara there is nothing I can say that will change these sad circumstances. My heart is in my mouth as I write, but I and many others have gained much strength from you. Remember Connors beautiful smile, it will see you through those dark days. Sending you all much love & hugs. xx
