I hope all goes well.  Thinking of you and wishing you comfort in the meantime.  There is always a sense of being in "limbo" before a funeral has taken place.  Afterwards you can be at peace, knowing you have said goodbye, and beginning the long road forward.

I like to remember a bit of a verse of Robert Bridges:

Since to be loved endures, to love is wise.

All the best.

I am so shocked Wingygale, I read your initial posts about your wifes illness but seem to have missed the bit inbetween so was horrified to read this thread.

I can only begin to imagine the sense of loss that you are feeling now.

I will keep you close in my thoughts, all my love, Sue x

Hello Martin,
Thank you for letting us all know everything went well for you and your family yesterday.
I know you'll still be busy re arranging you life. If there is anything we can do for you, you will let us know?

I would like to offer to grow some plants for you to help you along the way, if time is precious for you.

Hugs Lauren  :)
