Whilst helping a loved one through a relationship crisis I am reminded to be grateful for my husband who may like us all have flaws but is a good man. I’m also grateful for my children and my home :)

Ds said listen bird’s (are) singing! and I was able to listen to them with him. They sang so beautifully. It was a nice reminder to stop and take in nature. It is a beautiful reminder for Gods mercy and calmness. It been hectic few years, it was very nice to stop for a little bit and enjoy a simple life pleasure.

Thinking of you at this sad time, Less - I'm sure the support you and your lovely family are giving each other will help you through. Flowers

Lessstressedhemum · 02/02/2020 07:32

Thank you, optimist. My kids have all come home and are helping each other and my sister has come home from Australia to stay with my dad for a couple of weeks. I'm so glad that we all have each other. I don't know how any of us would cope, otherwise

I'm grateful that we had my mum for so many years
I'm grateful that she found strength in her faith and her family at the end
I'm grateful for all the medical staff who were so good with her and worked so hard to try to make her better.

@Lessstressedhemum I’m very sorry to hear your mother passed Flowers

In times of grieving it is nice when family come together and provide spiritual and emotional support. May your faith get stronger and help you through this challenging journey. Eat or drink something if you can. I’m glad to hear your mothers passing was peaceful.
