On Sunday, two days after the half-time anniversary of Nadine’s passing away, we were able to go and see her gravesite. And once again we brought some small plants and added them to the site. I planted a violet between the roots of her tree – not too obvious for the wardens of Degerloch cemetery.

Last Sunday we also spent time at our daughter’s grave and watched a robin coming to her grave three times within a couple of minutes, hopping around and picking up pips. We do not want to put any extrasensory meaning into this, but to us it was something very special.
