You're blessed.
You shared the best & the worst with her... that's love.
You got to be in her heart til the end.
There's no more pain, sadness or suffering.
No more visits from strangers when she wanted to sleep.
She put her affairs in order & left feeling completely & unabashedly unburdening.
That's love.
She has your love(as well as the love of her family) to take with her on her journey, now.
All is well.
Now it's time to find a beautiful place in the sun to plant a tree in her memory.
Visit it every year & hang one string of beads on the branches as you remember a good time you had together. I'm sure her spirit will be there to appreciate it.

I'm sorry.. I'm not really feeling humorous.. I'm just trying to give myself a much needed kick up the bum!------ This thread is Archived ------
Claayer: I'll be quick because I came here for a SMILE... and don't particularly want to talk about it.. Thankyoooooo soo much for everyone who has prayed for Trish and kept her (and me) in their thoughts.
Thankyou! really. But she finally passed away last night..
I'm glad really.. and so would she be!.. She was wanting to go a few weeks ago.. (she was in so much pain, and hated not being in control any more)
She used the 'borrowed' time she had to organise her own wake and funeral.. got rid of all her clothes and belongings.. closed her bank accounts and all that.. swapped things over into her husbands name.. chose her casket.. and what she was going to wear in it. She was a VERY organised person.. (unlike me).. She kept me on the straight and narrow and (usually) kept me out of trouble.Sooo.. I lost the person who knew me inside out.. my 'Brilliant' travelling companion..
I lost my best friend..
I'm not telling you this for a load of woe is me crap.. I'm not like that.. and she would hate me to be like that too. I stopped crying about it a while ago.. (and so did she) and just waited (and wished for) a speedy inevitable.
I was able to speak to her (barely and briefly-daily)... up until a little over a week ago. So we got to say all the things we wanted to.. I will always be grateful for that.. many people never get that lucky.
I just wanted to let all the people who kept tabs on it all along .. know.
All my love to you claire..She now is in a better place and at peace..Thankyou! really. But she finally passed away last night..

If there is one time when "the stiff upper lip" thing just IS NOT right that is at times like these!!!!
You don't need a kick up the bum!!! You need to hug yourself and anyone else who's happy to let themselves be bear hugged by you right now ... If there's no one about go drag a stranger off the street!!!! Tell them you need a hug and I said so!!!!

I am really sorry to hear that.
Turn, Turn, Turn
Pete Seeger
To everything, turn, turn, turn,
There is a season, turn, turn, turn,
And a time for every purpose under heaven.
A time to be born, a time to die;
A time to plant, a time to reap;
A time to kill, a time to heal;
A time to laugh, a time to weep.
A time to build up, a time to break down;
A time to dance an time to mourn;
A time to cast away stones,
A time to gather stones together.
A time of love, a time of hate;
A time of war, a time of peace;
A time you may embrace,
A time to refrain from embracing.
A time to gain, a time to lose;
A time to rend a time to sew;
A time to love, a time to hate;
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late.
You might remember that Song.

Hi Carol
I have cried sooooooo much (previously).. I just don't think I can cry about it any more. My children have been fantastic.. and wouldn't say a word .. just give me a hug when they found me bawling my eyes out trying to cook dinner etc.
I don't want to cry about it any more.. I want to take and use all the positive things from it all. I'm just trying to work out what the hell they ARE that's all..
