I'd like to thank you all for your lovely words...here and through pm's...It means alot to know that some people are thinking of you and your family at these times and that there are so many people in similar situations that still take the time to give some support to others. Thats what I love about this site. Thanks again...one and all Nick.

Nick, people tell you ' you,l get over it ' , Usually people who haven,t been there .You never forget them , you always wonder what it would be like if they were still here . Every family event has you missing them . Live your life to the full, double in fact, for the life they missed out on and the chances you have been given . Love Kim xxx

Nick....that is truly lovely and very, very moving. He must have been very special, as you must be too, to have had such a close bond. Although a sad time for you at least you have such happy memories to hold on to. Jean x.

Echoing Mo's post and I think you were a wonderful brother too. You were lucky to have each other, sad it was for such a very short time though. kitty x

Thinking of you Nick Your poem from your heart is a lovely tribute to your brother and the time you shared together. One day may you share those times again. Reading Nicks words and others comments brings back to us all just how precious our family and friends are. For each and everyone of us I send out a hug and thoughts today, our loved ones will always hold that special place in our hearts. Colin

Hi Nick, the pain of parting never really goes, and on particular days there is a constant ache. But the good times should always outweigh the bad and the times you were caught mis-behaving now shine like stars and make you smile. I lost my sister 11 years ago but think of her loads. Stay well............... Lin xxxx

Dear Nick Hugs alot for you. I only lost my twin brother three years ago on 22nd July and although people say it gets easier for me it has been harder. I cried when I saw what you had written it meant so much to me. Take care and God Bless Kay xx
