What you wrote sprang from grief, but it was a gentle reminder of what I have to learn over and over again, so I thank you. I hope you will find comfort with your cousins. Love to you, and thank you again.
Thank you so much, Abigail. Your words landed like a big hug, and I appreciate that so much right now. And always, really. Sending you a lot of love ❤️🩹
I am so deeply sorry for the loss of your Aunt, your mom and for all the others you are grieving. This is A LOT of sorrow, and all the other grief emotions, to carry. When we start losing so many people in our lives, the grief is not just multiplied, it IS so many 'stages' all happening in different ways, yet simultaneously. From my experience, heavy loss like this has to have added levels, not just stages, to the grief process. The getting through is a akin to navigating a labyrinth with a new or different abyss around every turn. How we manage to make our way through, is a mystery and a miracle. Sharing your journey, in the midst of grief, has to be profoundly difficult. As I am writing a response, late, I know you have already returned from the funeral, had some much needed time with family as you shared your loss and love with each other, and that you are now moving through each day the best you can. Biggest hugs and love to you. Gracious thanks for sharing with us during a most difficult time. You and your family are in my thoughts and heart. May comfort and peace always be with you. MUCH LOVE going your way, ~Wendy 💜
Thank you so much, Wendy. It has been a lot in the last several years, but I am okay. I think we should talk about losing people more because it hurts and it’s hard, but I’m all right. It was very good to be with family, and good to come home, too 🤍 Thank you for your kindness 🥹🙏🏼
Your love for your Aunt Louise is so great and so beautiful. It could never be a burden to witness your love and grief for her. It would be a complete honor for anyone you choose to share it with.
Thank you for sharing your story with us. I am sending you all the love and wishes for comfort. I know your Aunt Louise’s spirit and love will continue to shine through you. She taught you how to give and love well 💖
Ally, I know you mentioned you didn’t want everyone to focus on the sorry part, but I sincerely am so sorry for your loss. Your aunt and grandmother sound like absolute treasures who truly knew how to love with their whole hearts and that is so precious and beautiful. Children need that presence in their lives and not everyone is capable of giving it. But those who can make such a difference to so many kids for their whole lives. Your grief is real and true and it is never ever a burden to those who care about you. AND I am so thrilled you now have Rufus in the family!! 😍 I hope I spelled his name right. What a lucky pup. ❤️ He is always welcome in the background (or even the foreground) of any podcast session! I love Rufus and I’ve barely seen him yet. I hope to see and hear more of your adventures together. 💞
Thank you so much, Jennifer. I guess I have lost so many people the last few years, I’m very conscious of not wanting to be a burden to people around me. A lot of people can’t handle it, but I know I should not worry about it because those people probably left a long time ago. Thank you for your kindness, my Nanny and my aunt were just amazing and I’m so grateful for both of them. And for Rufus 🥹And for you 🙏🏼❤️🩹
