This !
'Had I the method or the means
I would build a time machine
I'd make it from the scraps you always find
When someone leaves their broken dreams behind
And I'd fuel it with the beats that my heart misses'

Listening to 16yr old Luke's version of I'm Yours by Jason Mraz.

I always fall apart at this point

'I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back'

Except Luke didn't get back 💔 #heartbroken

So lucky to live in the Scottish Borders, a beautiful autumnal day, a time for nature, reflection, and a moment of calm. #nature #trees #autumn #grief #love #reflection

Last week was a momentous week when Luke's headstone was placed. I'm finding it hard to deal with the permanence of his death, the permanence of the words etched in stone. #suicide #grief #SuicidePreventionweek #poetry #mantis #dice #Warhammer #dungeonsanddragons #motherslove #unansweredquestions

We've been thinking about doing this for ages. Cassidy Chat Noir!
Jim's a watercolour artist & picture framer @ Three Fishes Framing, Peebles Scotland. I love the frame and delighted with Cassidy and her bells, and her wee mouse!

Cassidy snoozing with Pooh Bear & Racoon puppet from Puppets on the Pier, San Francisco. The raccoon puppet was Luke's. He brought it back from a trip to The City, and it stayed with him up until he died. #cat #caturday #Sanfrancisco #tiedye #grief #suicide #saytheirname #motherslove #missingyou

Early morning visitor while spending time with Luke. There were lots of bird songs too, chiffchaff, robin, blackbird, and chaffinch. Thankfully, the cat wasn't interested!

Remembering Luke on his 30th birthday today by visiting a favourite place, Edinburgh Zoo was a much-loved place for our family ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Remembering 30 years ago, I was still waiting for Luke to make his appearance!!! It was one of the hottest summers for a long time. I was, as you can see very heavily pregnant with Luke - 2 weeks overdue - and struggling to keep a young active James occupied in the hot summer days. 💔 #motherslove

Black cat appreciation day. We've always had black cats, they're simply the best xx #cat #blackcats #catpics

Having a wonderful visit from my eldest, James, great to do the 'mum thing'! 😀
I'm loving every moment, but I can't help but be sad that I won't get these types of visits from my youngest son Luke, who lost his life to suicide last May 💔

It's very painful to think that 14 months have passed since my beautiful son Luke made the decision to take his own life aged 28. I just can't believe it's true, miss him so very much 😢 heartbroken 💔 #profoundsadness #grief #suicide #saytheirname #motherslove #why #regrets
