Wow! How the fuck is he functioning, let alone going back to work. His head must be going at a million miles n hour at the moment. The poor lad.Back on comms last night on talksport. Brave man. We all deal with grieving in our own ways.
I read his book years ago. His dad’s philosophy was work and work until your mortgage is paid off. He is a very old school man and I suppose this is his way of grieving. Working.Wow!

It’s 6 days after…..Back on comms last night on talksport. Brave man. We all deal with grieving in our own ways.
I did make the point he was a brave hard honest man ,in the thread after his heart attack on a plane.I read his book years ago. His dad’s philosophy was work and work until your mortgage is paid off. He is a very old school man and I suppose this is his way of grieving. Working.
He had my respect as a man wearing the England shirt. Even more so now. I don’t believe in any god so I’ll simply say I have my upmost respect to him as a person.
Sorry to hear that, mate.It’s 6 days after…..
How long is the norm?
As mentioned we all deal with grief differently.
Fair play to Stuart and best wishes to him and family over the coming days / weeks / months.
My brother passed anway unexpectedly in 1980, aged 21, I was 17.
I was in work the next day and just had the day of the funeral off…..
My parents never got over it. The first Xmas and first birthday afterwards were dreadful……
You have to establish a new normal within which the loss of your child features in every moment.Sorry to hear that, mate.
I think to lose a child, however the circumstances maybe, must be the single most hardest thing to have to go through as a parent. I have no idea how I’d cope and I hope I never have to deal with that. Only mind I don’t think I’d ever get out of bed again, but I suppose the reality would be somewhat different.
