I just thought it odd, but then we all deal with things in a different way. There is no right or wrong way to deal with grief as you say. Does it really matter ? I dont think so really, if the girl gets some solace from it all well and good.

Just a thought.

When you lose someone you love, it's really hard to understand that the world is going on as normal all around you, and after all the fuss and inital sympathy has died down, it seems like everyone but you has forgotten the deceased. Perhaps that's why she decided to share what she's done, by going to the press.

I suppose it could used as a sort of quality control test for prospective husbands to find out how literate they are

Sorry, I can't take this seriously. I could, perhaps, understand a picture of the deceased but this is just weird and the poem is ......... no, I'm too polite to say.

Yep - I'm judging again!

Does it start like this; Curfew tolls the knell of parting day?

Yes, it does and there are about 12 verses.

It gives new dimension to 'book at bedtime' - what will her future husband make of it? - better that she lies on her back ALWAYS

A little late for the fifth when you have already incrimiated yourself

she obviously loved him and she wanted a permanent reminder of him.... if it makes her feel better about losing him, who are we to judge... she isnt forcing anyone else to have one or for any one to look at it.... its her choice.
i dont have any tattoos but i have been thinking about it and if i do, it will be my choice! i say good for her, if it helps

[BERNADETTE]

I don't think people are judging as such Em just wondering why it had to be broadcast. Think most of us see grief as a very personal thing. So yes if a tatto makes you feel better then have one but why the need to put it in the local paper???

[emamum]

maybe it was her way of making sure he was remembered?

I really don't think people are going to forget him whether she tells the paper about the tattoo or not

[emamum]

but we are all speaking about the tattoo, which is about her uncle so we are kind of passing on the memory of her uncle???? if that makes sense lol
