Woman reveals how her boyfriend left her a list after taking his own life

A woman has revealed how she was left with conflicting feelings after her boyfriend left her a letter after taking his own life. Elena Ricci, 29, from Birmingham was devastated when she lost her partner of six years, Chirag, 26, in July 2022. Days after his death she received a letter in the post from Chirag - that he had sent before he passed away - with 101 things for her to do to help her live again. 50 of these were things they'd wanted to do today, while an extra 51 were ones he'd remembered Elena speaking about - including climbing Kilimanjaro, dyeing her hair blonde, going on a date and falling in love again. Initially Elena was 'angry' at the letter and spent the next few years 'sleep walking through life' to get through her grief. But now, nearly three years on, she has re-read the letter and has now decided to start trying to complete the things set out for her - calling it her 'yes list'.
