Ag nee Fiona, I forgot your birthday!
Why am I crying now?
Seeing that happy photo, seeing your Tom looking so alive!!! and then it all changed.
Just sucks!
how can someone not even acknowledge that The Husband is dead?
That happens to me as well, and makes me so angry, and then they make a stupid remark like that!
I just walk away and find someone else to speak to.
Stupid brainless people!
But, I am glad you have such good friends in McGregor, and that you had a good birthday and day of celebration.
A day that a very special little baby called Fiona was born, and brought so much to the world, and that you still continue to make the world around you a better place.
My wishes is that you find peace and comfort in your heart, and remember the good memories, they will be with you forever❤❤❤
Ag, Lizelle - that was the plan - to forget my birthday!
I am glad - if you know what I mean - that it's not just me. I get it that folk don't know how to deal with it. I've never been one for euphemisms and in the last 10 or so months, I've become more direct than I've been in my whole life. That's a mixed blessing.
Now you've made me cry.
And this is my wish for you. I am beginning to find some balance and part of that is thanks to the posse of people I have surrounding me - in McGregor and beyond. I could not be more grateful.
I'm starting to do things around the house again, stuff Arthur wanted to sort out, but did not have the energy to do. I now realize just how long he wasn't well, he always blamed it on his glucose levels!
Bongikosi has been an absolute star, Cynthia as well, and of course friends and family. I don't know how people deal with a loss like this without a support system.
I also am truly thankful for having angels around me!
Me, too. On both counts, Lizelle.
