hey stoop, i dont think i ever did meet you but i heard dad talk about you often, i know because he always referred to everyone by their screen names, and stoop is a name i remember hearing a lot, probably in relation to football!!! lol
ronzeus ill try not to be a stranger, im always logging in to read things to see whats going on in calis, so ill try to post more often, its always nice to hear from everyone.
and linda, im glad you could take something away, and also hope other people have taken somethingpositive away from the experience, ill admit it was the hardest time of my life but a lot of good memories of those 2 weeks too, but as my grandad would say isnt that what life and death is, there are good and bad things about both, and like you said youve thought about how your children would cope etc, I think what helped us the most was that dad had made me and my brothers power of attorney when he had been ill a few years before, if i could give people any advice its that it is worth thinking about your loved ones, i think if dad hadnt been so ill in 2008 he like most people would have carried on enjoying life not giving a second thought to once he had gone, because its not something we like to think about.
but yes my advice that helped us is to go to the notary and have your children made power of attorney, a turkish will helped us a lot too, everything moved much faster with the courts, as ive said previously a good solicitor like ozlen who you can trust is something im so glad we found, and then the rest just falls into place.
but the best thing is to point your kids in the direction of here, the support from the forum, from the people off buy sell fethiye, it was just overwhelming, i dont think we could have got through it without people like yourselves.
oh and linda i know youve done a good job with your kids, ive seen the pictures on facebook, they seem a credit to you, and you look like a close family. And you will definitely see us in april, we will go for a drink or something to eat somewhere, it was lovely to meet you both last time and we are looking forward to getting to know you a bit better x
