I didn't always say everything I felt on my blog, but I do let a little bit more out now and then. It's necessary to express our feelings - but maybe not to everyone. My prayers for you are that you will find a place to express yourTerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01019364333876469130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248364903320019167.post-59101786600925549112011-07-29T16:30:27.353-07:002011-07-29T16:30:27.353-07:00As much as we change through life, we stay the sam...As much as we change through life, we stay the same. You have always been one to give the other person a"pick me up" a compliment, a pay it forward. Anything to help another. You have been by Vern"s side and been his caregiver and now you are the "Caregiver" here on your blog. Don't berate yourself for pretending. Most of Life is pretending.

It's hard to care about all this mundane cr**. I'm thinking of making my own "honey-do" list and trying to accomplish more by organizing things and trying to get at least one task done each day.

You are an amazing person and I think of you every day as each stage of this terrible illness takes life away as we knew it. You are ever in my prayers and heart. Grief is a very lonely place indeed.

Not like on here. Even though WV is supposed to be there for these moments, you know as well as I do, that mostly it turns into a laughfest in chat (and I'm also to blame for that because I'm like you...easier to put on the happy face).
