Originally Posted By FaMulan I am sorry for your loss. Please take care of yourself and remind your family that small, basic things are important during this time. Remember to eat, sleep when you can, and follow your hygiene routine and allow yourself to grieve. You have 30 years to reconcile, remember and file away before you forge a new life. Please do so.

I get what you are saying, your heart hurts so badly, your thoughts are scattered, but it seems like this is the second time around and you can cope with it. We had months of hope, grief, anger, planning and lots of giddy laughter when my mother in law was in and out of the hospital with brain cancer and then my father was slowly passing from one thing after another. I was one of the daughters and DIL's, like your daughter who is there at your side. After a time, we would find humor in the silliest things and also find ourselves just "happy" to be at a mall or taking a walk. I get what you are saying, you've been preparing your heart for this time so you are able to function today. We appreciate your sharing your life with us and we are here for you and your family as life goes on. Take care, Nancy

Originally Posted By Ursula Jerry, Thank you so much for letting us know how you are getting on. We really are real people behind our "Ursulas" and I for one, truly do care to know that youa re doing okay. I hope you really enjoy Branson. My out-laws have two or three timeshares there and spend a chunk of time each year enjoying the town. If you happen to run into a kind but cantankerous older couple, send them my regards! I have only been married for nine years. I couldn't even begin to fathom what it felt like to get the news about your Rosie. I hope that I can borrow a page from your book as you've done everything right. Rosie was just as lucky to have you as you were to have her. I'm glad she didn't have to suffer long, too. Kind Regards, Dawn PS-Is there a way to find out about a service for her?

I, too, was on the "installment" plan and I am so glad I have all my memories to comfort me when I'm feeling down. She will always be with you in your heart ♥.
