Sorrow

If you know me in person, then you've probably heard the news. Last Thursday, my husband suddenly died from a pre-existing condition. This was utterly unexpected, and of course has been devastating. I am grateful that my friends and family have surrounded me. His family will arrive this week, and the funeral will be held on Sunday.

I had no idea. I'm so, so sorry. I can't even begin to imagine what you're going through. There are no words...

I love you Renee. Trying to come down on Saturday. Big, big hugs.

Renee Michelle, I was so sorry to hear this heartbreaking news. I hope that you will find some comfort and strength in knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of many friends of A's family in the UK.

Renee, my heart breaks for you. If there is ever anything I can do to help you through this difficult time, please just ask. I know I don't live near you, but you can call me any time, day or night if you just need to talk. I know when I went through some grieving, it really helped me talk to other people especially during those times of day that were even harder... sending hugs and love.

My deepest sympathies. I've thought a lot about you since you told me about your loss... I remember what it's like to be where you are and it pains me to think that anyone I know or have known personally is going through that... Remember that the best thing you can do is use your support networks. REACH OUT. I didn't do enough of that when I was in your shoes and it really made things difficult for me. I was always afraid to ask for help or call someone to just listen to me. I didnt want to be a bother to anyone... For true friends, your requests are not a bother at all.

Keep yourself well and cry when when you want to cry; smile when you feel yourself smiling. Dont push yourself and don't let others push you.

These are my only words of advice for what it's worth.

Love,

Heidi
