Letters to my late husband Terence
A record of meaning
Dear Abi Daily fam
My darling husband Terence died on Wednesday November 28th 2018. In the days and months that followed, I found myself not only consumed by an inconsolable, queasy pain, but also by the urgent feeling that I needed to record my grief, by sharing all my thoughts with him, as I had done for nearly 10 years.
So almost every day, I sat and wrote little letters to him. I found it incredibly soothing, having the simple routine of putting finger to key, sending my hopes, ideas, fears,TV reviews, and undying love into the great beyond.
I want to share them here with you. If you scroll down they start in order at the bottom of the page.
The souls of those we love never die, they live for eternity.
All my love

Oh Abi,
My heart is broken for you.
I’ve said before, the love you have for each other shines through with such force.
I’ve only read a few and now I am a wreck, such beautiful words for your wonderful Terence.
Thankyou for sharing such a personal journey with us and I hope that you are okay.
When you talk about him, I smile.
Sending the warmest of hugs to you 💖💖💖
Abi, I’ve just sat and read every one of your beautiful letters to Terence. I am so overwhelmed by the pure love you have for your darling husband and feel honoured to be allowed in to your deepest thoughts. I totally understand the need you had to get away after your loss and I believe the people you met on your travels were sent to help you process your grief, every person had a reason for being there.
I have nothing but admiration for you Abi, you deserve such good things in your life and I hope you know how much you’re appreciated. God bless you lovely lady x
