Thank you for your kind condolences. Your words have been so comforting to me. I will be back very soon with food and books and lots to share. In the meantime, I am sending love right back out, right back at you.
Oh, God. I've been thinking about you and will continue to do that. I'm so sorry. We offer you metaphorical casseroles (because that is how we deal with grief in this culture, no?). Do you have a P.O. Box? Are freeze-dried casseroles a thing?
Catherine.. I am so very sorry. I know how you are feeling... and it's unreal how the world keeps spinning while you and your family are shell shocked with this loss. Shouldn't it have stopped as it's stopped for you?? Sending you blessings and love - and my virtual casserole too and my chocolate chip dump cake. and some liquor. ;) My deepest condolences to you and her family. (hugs) <3
Sending my love to you, your family, and all those who love her. It hurts, but you will make it through. Let the love of others hold you up while you heal.
