Thanks Annie, Victor, Marina, Helen, Krista... others I'm going to miss
saying thank you in a few days.

Abi's ok. She got tearful but she's bouncing back with amazing clarity.
Jody's flying in within two hours. Eve, bless her heart has grounded us
all with the idea life goes on... she woke up with a stomach virus.

I know we'll be ok, and Jody's sisters are going to be ok. Jody's
brother and Daddy... well. I guess I'm putting a lot of power in the
idea of spouses right now. I worry less if I know a loved one has
somebody to stay with them.

I dunno, I'm babbling.


(((((Grace & Family)))))

Babble away, if thats what you need to do. We're here to listen.

Hugs & condolences,

Yowie

I just came home from my in-laws tonight. A few hours ago my MIL passed

Jody's in Florida catching a plane in a couple hours. He hasn't a soul
over there with him right now and it's breaking my heart.

Abi saw me rush out in a tailwind which frightened her and I didn't have
time to sooth any fears as I left her with Mom. She's asleep but how do
I tell a six year old in the morning her grandmother who she saw
perfectly fine, healthy and in great spirits yesterday is gone today?

How do I comfort my forever love when he's ten hours away.

Pray for everybody please.

Purrs from our household for you and the whole family, Grace.

Sincere condolences in your loss. How do you tell a six-year old? As
simple as possible. How about "she is visiting the Angel kitties?"

Come here and babble all you want. The most important thing you can do for
each family member affected by this is to listen to them. And let them deal
in their own time and in their own way. But mostly be available now and for
quite a while to come to listen and try not to judge what they say or how.
