Hello everyone,
A new member Birch started Supporting from a distance this evening. She lives some distance from her parents.  Could I ask you to consider responding to her post?

Jaindough – it’s coming up to a year since your mother died. Thinking of you and your little family.

Thanks for thinking about it.

Katherine

Thanks, Jaindough. It's good to hear from you. natR, you are right, I have been hunkering down and carrying down. I went to visit my 85-year-old aunt, who is doing well, but she is worried about her older sister, my aunt in BC, who is so far away from Virginia, whose husband is quite sick, and who can't seem to manage on her own. How do we reach out to those so far away?

There is something about autumn that refreshes grief. Talking with my aunt reminded me so much of my mom, who died four years ago. And I cope every day with Pablo, my partner, who can't remember anything for more than 5 minutes. He still knows how to say thank you, though.

Love to all,

Nouce

Hello all,

Remember me? I remember all you sweet folks helping me during a time when i was sure i was going to lose my husband to lung cancer.
Well here we are 3.5 years later and that 8 month timeline they initially gave Mick is long gone and he is insulating his garage and made one heck of a mess. I love it LOL. He had another scan in August and he remains NED (no evidence of disease). His dr loves it when we come in. He books us in for the last appointment for the day and we just sit and chat about whatever. This time it was camping in BC. We spent 2 weeks with Mick's daughter and granddaughter at Christina Lake BC. 3rd time there. We loved it so much we put our name in for a permanent spot. Us and our little 1972 Boler camper we are fixing up. Kids are going great. Added a new furball to the herd. A chorkie - Chihuahua/yorkie mix - a whole 5 lb fierce (well he thinks so) little thing) named Sherman after the Sherman tank. Jimmie, Nouce, jaindough, natR, Katherine, Old Bat, colleen, marstin and dear sweet Xenia and I know i have miss many - love and hugs to you all. Miss you all so much. Special hugs to you during this time jaindough.
