I love to garden, I find digging in the dirt brings me closer to nature and to God. When we younger and Bob was healther we enjoyed riding, taking vacations on his Harley-Davidson, one of the big touring bikes, We have a classic Pick-up that we used to go to Cruise in with. See it was all about him.

One day at a time and one crises at a time. Sounds like they are not derailing you, just bending. There will be better days and this too shall pass (although it's hard for me to see too right now). Hugs to you!
Girl, you need a big bunch of flowers and a big old Aussie HUG.Don't know what to say, you're deep in the valley of the shadow of death. Death is so sad, cancer is a scourge. My heart goes out to you. Just live each day as best you can.... Love John
Glad they are recognising negligence - it would give you comfort and a bit of closure. John
What a happy and blessed entry Janet - he must have been quite a guy; and what sweet shop owners too! Huhs for you. John
Feeling so alone in this is the hardest part for me most days. I too just say "I have my moments" and feel like that's just all people want to hear. They don't know what my new normal is going to be and neither do I. It's a process and a lonely one for the most part. But sometimes I'll have a good day and think, I'll get there ant that gives me hope. Just keeping the door open for possibilities and loads of change. I know that the first year is a crazy time and not to expect much relief, but when I have a good moment, I acknowledge it and say out loud that there will be more of those. It's just too raw for us right now. One day at a time.
I just lost my husband of 32 years on 10/11, I was part of a caregivers group,but on longer feel connected to the members. I think my grief scares them, knowing that they may be facing the same siituation soon.
