What we’re up to… August 17, 2024 at 04:45PM

By 17th August 2024 No Comments

Kai’s funeral will be at 12:30pm on Wednesday the 21st of August at the St Albans Woodland Burial Grounds in Keysoe, in Bedfordshire (MK44 2JP).

There will be a funeral reception afterwards at the Fox and Hounds, 54 High St, Riseley (MK44 1DT), which is a ten minute drive from the burial ground.

Everyone welcome (including kids), but please let us know if you’re coming, so we can organise numbers/food for the F&H.

Dress code is smart, and dark if you like; but also Elly is wearing a dress with aeroplanes, so you do you.

We’re hoping to stream for those who can’t make it. If you’d like the link, please email Elly: elly.hulance@gmail.com

Again, please no flowers, instead if you could donate in his honour if you feel moved to: https://ift.tt/EClc0KV

Please come ready to share with Elly and Sam a moment of joy you remember with Kai. We’re holding our memories tight and would love to hear yours.

Oh KaiKai, we love you so much.

It’s been a few days and this doesn’t feel real – my entire body viscerally rejects this devastating experience, this truth that hurts, that carves out my core and withers all that I am? I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe (I miss you I miss you I miss you). How do I stop crying? How am I picking out caskets and signing your death certificate and organising your funeral? Worse, how are people planning for after? (As far as I’m concerned, we bury you and then the earth will swallow us all whole, and that’s done. No more after).

Oh my beautiful beautiful boy. How do we honour you? How do we hold this pain (so much pain, so much pain) so you can be free? from Instagram: https://instagr.am/p/C-xsxTAo2xF/
