Hiya everyone,

I'm new here. I'm 37 and I live with my fiance and my mum and my mum's pomchi puppy.

My dad lost his brave battle with terminal lung cancer last March aged 63.

I've always been close to my dad and my late nanna (my late dad's late mum) hence my screen name.

My profile pic is of my brother and our late dad. ( Picture removed for safety reasons)

I'm the lady in the pink top on the left of the photo I've added. The gentleman next to me is my brother and the other lady is my best friend of over 20years.

My best friend became a mum for the first time at 5am this morning to a beautiful lil girl who she named Summer Marie.

Well that is a small bundle of news but after loosing someone very dear to you , you have bravely welcomed a new life into the world. I think it is good for people to share their stories of loss and gain and in the process find comfort in the way things balance out. Maybe sometime in the future you will be able to share your experiences with others as you have done so beautifully with us.

I hope you come to peace with you grief you new friend baby gives you comfort and maybe looks up to Auntie Daddysgirl1982. Good luck for your future.

Ty Greyone. I'm already an auntie as I have two nieces and two nephews. I'm going to be a great-auntie for the first time next month as my eldest nephew's girlfriend is pregnant and I'm going to be an auntie again in October as my youngest sister and her wife are expecting their youngest daughter in October.

My youngest sister and her wife's lil girl who is 7 is looking forward to becoming a big sister in October. My niece is disabled and loves giving kisses and cuddles. One of her favourite programs is something special as the presenter, Justin (I can't remember his surname) and his clown alter ego Mr Tumble and his family use makaton, which is awesome as my niece uses makaton herself in school.

My niece was diagnosed with global development delay when she was around two years old. She has a wheelchair and a walking frame.

She's also learning to say people's names and her own name.

She loves it when I visit as everyone else gets ignored as I'm around.

She loves Peppa pig too.

My niece's current favourite tv programme (which is being re-run on Netflix is Benidorm.

Not what you're looking for?
