Thank you for sharing, I am sorry for what you're going through. I'm feeling a little less alone in our similar pain because of it. I hope you do as well, knowing you've put the pain others are feeling in such succinct terms, that we could share, even a fraction of our lament with you. All the best, sending you all the love.

Thanks for the reminder about the tests. I will have gone through a whole box this week and I suppose I should now take advantage of the free ones.

Keep well.

Oof, yes thank you. I can get so consumed by 'what's bad' that I forget to enjoy 'what's good', and then I look back and say "why didn't I enjoy that". All the best wishes to you and your sunshine(s).

Thank you those words were needed. It reminded me to seek joy, because happiness is fleeting.

Kelly Sue,

Thank you for sharing this very honest testimony with us. The vulnerability displayed here is so courageous (though I know you likely don't see it that way), and this shows me how resilience can be a double-edged sword. But the deep and thoughtful humanity cannot be denied. I witness this and I am glad to be able to. Love, safety, and peace to you.

When a family member dies, going through their lifetime of stuff can be very taxing indeed. Hang in there Kelly, this too shall pass. You won't forget it, but it will pass.
