This is the Hardest thing I’ve ever had to Write. It is with a Heavy Heart and Deep Sadness I Write that My Cheryl has Passed away. I take Solace that Cheryl is now at Peace. I Love You Lil Cheryl And always will. Cheryl Louise Davison 7/9/1978 to 1/12/2021
Somebody said to me today to put all the photos of Cheryl away as it’s the only way I can move forward? If I can’t see Cheryl’s face I might as well be dead, I need to see Her to keep me alive, to feel less lonely, I am Grieving, does nobody understand? 😪😪😪
Time to somewhat admit defeat? I have reluctantly flown back to England. It very quickly dawned on Me despite sitting out in the Sun abroad I cannot escape the Crux of My Grief. I will seek out some medical help as I now realize I need professional help as I have reached the end
Tomorrow I bite the bullet and am paying to talk to a Grief Councillor, I’m not happy about having to pay but I can’t go on feeling the way I have been for far to long now, I just don’t want to break down and cry 😢🗣
What niggled me the most is the way Cheryl’s Parents cut me adrift after the wake. I know we don’t have a direct connection between us anymore but after almost 18 Years together I don’t know, a phone call now and again? Others tell me their grief is worse than mine? It niggles me
Today is a very difficult Bittersweet day for Me.
It is Six Months to the Day since My Cheryl sadly passed away. There hasn’t been a day I haven’t thought about and cried over Her and I will Never Ever forget Her. 🥺❤️🩹💐
Since Cheryl Passed away I can’t stand being in my own company. I hate who I’ve become, there’s a lot I don‘t like about Myself. I’ve got to accept change but letting go of the past is so difficult and the future if any scares me a lot 🥺

My Second Christmas as a Widower, I walked through Newport Pagnell High Street on the way Home Tonight, looked up at all the Christmas Lights but it was tinged with sadness, when I got in I had a bit of a cry 🎄😢
@BenOxlade1
Hello Ben, I’ve seen your Tweets for a while now while I scroll, I just wanted to wish you and yours well, your Child’s story is heartfelt and I hope every day from here on in get easier for you all, hang in there and thanks for sharing, you are all so very brave 🥲
Today I say My Final Goodbye to My Cheryl as She is laid to rest. This is going to be the most difficult, challenging and emotional day of My life. Scared, fearful & worried, just hope I can read Cheryl’s Eulogy without breaking down? I need to be Strong & just hold it together
Day 322 here, I close in on almost a Year since Cheryl passed away, I still shed tears, I look at Photographs, the darkness & loneliness of the Cold Winter Months scares Me, I’m alive but I don’t like the life I have 🥺
I come in from the Football, an empty dark house is behind the Front Door, nobody to talk to, an empty Bed, loneliness amongst the quiet is Soul destroying, a long hard Winter ahead all by Myself 🥺 Grief is Not My Friend but not My Enemy, just an uncomfortable feeling within 😶
I was in The High Street & I really don’t know what came over Me? The door to the Tattoo Shop was open and from out of nowhere a voice in my head said, “Go get a Tattoo” Cheryl had 5 Tattoos and often quipped how Square I was at my refusal to get one, not so Square now am I? ❤️🩹💝
I don’t have much to Smile about these days but this will 😁 Steptoe and Son alert! Galton and Simpson's great comedy enjoys its successful first outing on the big screen

For the first time since December 2019 I’m about to go and start earning a wage packet working for the Man. I don’t need the money, I don’t really need a job yet but others say it will give Me Structure, Routine, get to meet people & give Me some sort of normality? Time will tell
Walked home behind a couple who were holding hands and laughing and showing public affection, held it until I got home, shut the front door and burst in to tears 😥
Today I waved Goodbye to England 👋🏻 For Me to go forward with My life I need to go and re-invent Myself where nobody knows Me? I will NEVER EVER Forget Cheryl no matter what 💔 What a Caterpillar 🐛 sees as Death, a Wise Old Man sees a Butterfly 🦋 Time to fly High Stewart Bailey
Living with a broken heart means learning to accept the fact that every day is just another day without your loved one in it, and that will never change.
Here's the thing...the problem with living with a broken heart, is nobody can see it. ❤️🩹
I got an email at School today, I’ve been nominated for Teacher of the Month. Somewhat chuffed with myself as I’ve only been there 27 days and I’m new to the job, must be doing something right?
Ended up doing a 5 hour trial shift as it was so busy. Been asked to return tomorrow for another five hour shift so to all intents and purposes I may have found myself a job?
Today is the Birthdate of the Late Great John Thaw, 3rd January 1942. Sadly no longer with Us. One of My Heroes, Jack Regan, Inspector Morse, Mitch, Mr.Tom Kavanagh QC amongst many other roles. I was lucky enough to serve Him in a Petrol Station back in the Nineties. LEGEND 📺🙌🏻

My Partner was a Kidney Dialysis Patient for the last Four Years of Her Life, the aim to keep life going by many Nurses is so understated, compassion and empathy by many 💝
Today has been a bad day, another job rejection, property I was hoping to rent, despite offering a years rent up front, Landlord wants a guarantor that I can’t provide, is it any wonder I’m fast falling in to a pit of despair, to much to ask for a bit of normality?give me a break
Seeing all these Christmas Television Commercials only reminds Me that this will be My Second Christmas without Cheryl. It’s a total non event for Me as Cheryl passed so close to Christmas last year, just reminds Me of just how all alone I am in this World 😢
The beginning of another Football Season is almost upon us. I am back behind the Mic

Two Years ago December 1st 2021 Cheryl sadly gained Her Heavenly Angel Wings. I miss You So So much Lil Cheryl.
Where ever you are
I know that you are proud of me
Navigating this river of grief, rudderless with a broken oar
The best I can without you. ❤️🩹
A very Large piece of Me died as well today, I’m a broken Man, just about kept it together reading out Cheryl’s Eulogy, Home now for a bloody good cry 😪
Went out down the High Street, a Hearse passes by with a Coffin on board, my Heart misses a beat, I start to well up, this thing called Grief, it just doesn’t get any easier 😢
@GaryScribbler
Hello Gary, sadly my partner Cheryl passed away last week. Every day since I’ve written her a letter to tell what’s going on my world, I think it’s called cathartic? Somebody said I should see what you've done to counteract the grief
About to go out the door for a three hour job trial to see if I can hold my nerve? not very confident but got to give it a go, very low self confidence, a feeling of here I go again, full of self doubt 🫤
So 2023 is ending. Another sad lonely painful Grief stricken year. Three Career changes, returned to the Parental Home. What will 2024 has in store for Me? I don’t expect anything to change? As I say to all, “Enjoy the Love of Your Family and Friends as Tomorrow is not a given”❤️🩹
This Cardigan was worn by My Cheryl at every single one of Her Dialysis Sessions, today I’ve given it to a woman with three other shirts which She will create some cushions, possibly a Teddy Bear as a keep sake for Me, felt quite emotional seeing the Cardigan go 😥
I’ve started to read this Book, if you’ve ever lost a loved one & like Me struggling with your Grief this is a very good read, already taken comfort & thought differently about the way I’ve been seeing things, well worth a read

40 days of mourning, time to change all my social media profile photos to just Me now. Funeral ceremony was on Friday. That Book is now closed sadly. Today is the first day of the rest of my life, I’m scared but somehow I’ve got to carry on, not an easy task but no choice

Today was Shift 170 in my job, since Cheryl passed I’ve had six jobs and this is the longest I’ve lasted so I guess lasting this long has to be some sort of a positive? ❤️🩹
I would like to thank everyone at

Grief has taught me that there are so many people walking around with broken hearts. We may not be able to tell by looking at them, but their hearts may be unbelievably full of pain and somehow achingly empty all at the same time.
May we proceed gently with one another. 🙏🏻 💙✨
