Hi Everyone
I am back to braveheart women again, in this last year I have had the pleasure of many experiences, some painful but they make you strong, appreciative and grateful and some wonderful and truly unexpected.
My beautiful baby brother passed away on the 23 August last year leaving a big void in my life. Leaving behind the most wonderful gift of all a beautful baby boy just 5 months old, that looks so like him some days it is just too painful. It was a difficult journey for his wife, my mum, sisters and myself. I remember the first day i held him only 1 one day old. I remember the last day i held him just hours before he died. I am grateful that I had the honour and privilege of being his sister for 30 years. He lives on in his son and also in my heart.
My twins (boy & girl) both moved out one in January and one in Febuary this year. I suffered from empty nest syndrome but when i realised that I had given them the two most important things a mum can give.. Roots to feel safe and the wings to fly off and be who they need to be.. I knew it was a job i had managed to do well.
I had a wonderful experience in the midst of my grief where out of what seemed like no where an e-mail arrived in my inbox asking me if I would be part of a documentary on women that would be filmed by the Irish channel TG4. I agreed, my part telling my story about my challenges to rising to be a successful business woman. This will be aired at the end of October this year. I hope to launch my book around this time.
Please tell me about your experiences over the past year. I would love to hear from some of your fabulous inspirtational women.
Love to you all
