I think it actually helps to write a little. My daughter journals like crazy and makes notes on everything. That's too much for me. This may be my very short equivalent. It helps to share, although at some moments it feels unfair to you. Off to the hospital soon. My daughter has a meeting with a social worker, which I hope to be at, and we have a team meeting with palliative care after.Kriselda Gray wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 2:29 amI suspect they'll be pretty understanding about that (at least they damn well better be!)
Your updates here re much appreciated, but if it's adding to your stress or you need that time and energy for yourself, then don't worry about here, ok? All you need to be concerned about right now is you nd your husband.

Good morning Andy
Idon’t feel it’s unfair. We never know what will get us through hard times. When my mom was sick I baked every day, even though she had stopped eating and I had no appetite. Neighbors, whatever fam was around got some but I didn’t feel bad throwing it out. The house was filled with the aroma of love. That’s what counted to me.

Your "aroma of love" was your self care which you wisely chose to do.

Andy, are you up for telling us about your husband? How long you've been married, how you met, your favorite memory of him? Anything that reminds you how strong he is and why he makes your heart flutter.

Good morning Andy! I hope you were able to get some rest, if not sleep.
If it’s not too much to bear, I second Sugar’s request to hear about your beloved. I know you traveled together; what else? How did you meet? When did you “know” he was it?
Much love to you.

Thank you, dear, for sharing Sandy a little. I’m keeping you both in my heart tonight.
I regret the fact that my parents didn’t tell me when my Noni Maria passed. I was 12. I didn’t go to the funeral, I never got to say goodbye to my favorite great-grandmother. They didn’t want to upset me. They meant well I guess. It’s hard to talk about for adults but necessary for the kids.
