h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm guessing, but it must have been really hard to put Alexander's Diary onto the web, so I thought you should know how difficult I found reading it. It gives a real insight into how you felt and the feeling of despaire you had as you felt him slipping away.

I know he would now be almost four but I appreciate the coming days will still be difficult. For what it's worth, I will be thinking of you and Alexander, all the more so because it's my birthday tomorrow too.

Thank-you for sharing Alexander's little life with us - God bess,

Bambi.

Thank you for writing. It helps that we can tell people about him. And he shares his birthday not only with you but with his older cousin, so we can at least have a happy occasion on the same day.

I have been very lucky in that I have never really lost anyone close to me (I still have my two close Grandparents and wasn't very close to the other two), so I have little or no understanding of what losing a child must be like, especially to watch it suffer. So I am very grateful for the insight you/your wife have given me, with luck it will help me to cope when I DO lose someone special to me.

Thanks again,

Bambi
