The other thread has reached 1000 posts, so I hope no-one minds that I started a new one......Hoping R is home with you now!

So glad R is home with you. I hope you get all the support you need to keep him there in the bosom of his family for as long as possible. I never saw my mum towards the end of her life. I guess they wanted to shelter us from it as we were so small. I wish I had had the chance to say goodbye and to have those last cuddles.

I really, really wish you and your family some happy days and memories. Actually, in fact I really, really wish that this wasn't happening to you at all. It's not fair. Sad

Great to see he's home. We are all here Rindercella - holding your hand, thinking of you all. In the midst of all the emotions, all the scary bits, all the fragility - you have your family and your wonderful girls, your friends and the carers who have come to help and you have all of us standing with you. We don't know what's it's like for you, we can't fix this but we can and we will listen and listen and listen. You will never ever be alone with this.

So pleased Richard is home where he belongs.

Hurray! You did it! I'm so impressed by you and your family, you all sound wonderful. Richard is so lucky to have you all. He must feel immensely special and treasured, despite all his exhaustion.

How are you, Rinder? You are carrying the world on your shoulders, and, as you say, so much of what is to come is unknown to you.

Sending you hugs and wishes for some really special family time.

Xxx

Northernlurker has put it so well, we are all here for you and we all wish you happiness, cake and love.

Rinders, I think of you all so often, I rarely post on your thread. I lie, I post and then delete because what I have written sounds "wrong" but I would bet that there are 100s, nay 1000s of mners wishing you all well now and thinking of you all often.

Love, light, cake and happiness to you all x

Hope you can get some sleep after such an emotional day.

It's fab Richards's home and it went well, if draining.

I can only imagine how upsetting it was to leave the hospice - it's such a warm, loving, safe environment and the people are so amazing - it's very, very emotional - but this is the nicest way to say goodbye, when you are taking him home x

The carers sound great - they sound like the kind of ladies who will be really supportive and blend in as much as they can. You can also use them to fend off any unwanted visitors Grin

Life is fragile my love - we treat it as though it isn't, but it is. It is incredibly hard when it's shoved right under your nose and you can't escape it - on the other hand, it does give you the opportunity to say all the things you need to say, create memories and send them off knowing, that they know, how much they are loved. When someone dies suddenly you don't get that - it may not seem much of a comfort right now, but I hope that, in time, it is x

Lots of love & strength (& cake)

Perhaps we could ask MNHQ to highlight Rinders posts on this thread? - I'm happy to request if people would like me to.
