What great pictures. I am sorry for your loss. Take care.

Thanks for your thoughts. Yeah, just a few I've posted before over the years here; makes me glad I started writing stuff down.

You take care too.

Oh, how sad. I'm very sorry for your loss.

Thanks. I know he was 84, but it seemed like he'd still be around for awhile yet.

Oh, no, honey. I'm so sorry. Lots of love to you.

[senoritafish.livejournal.com]

Thanks Meg. Love to you, too. Been thinking about you a lot lately.

I'm so sorry. Keep him close in your hearts, and remember the good times, so he'll always be with you. Wishing you peace in the days ahead. xxx

We'll be doing that - I'm so glad that I've got stuff (good and not so good - I'd rather remember all of it) written down in this journal, because otherwise I would forget. I bought my kids blank journals to write their thoughts in as well.

Thanks so much for your thoughts.

I am so sorry, Hon. *hugs*

[senoritafish.livejournal.com]

Thanks. *hugs back* And thanks so much for your stories; they were a welcome distraction during times in the waiting room when I just needed to think about something else.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Leanne.
Hope you are doing ok.

Thanks - well, as I said in an earlier post, there's no way out but through, so we muddle as best we can. Having gone through this already with my mom, I know it gets easier, but it takes time and sometimes it's hard to remember that.
