I am sure the loss is still so very raw. This is a beautiful tribute to your Mum, the love shines through the photos too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2035306 Fri, 14 Jun 2019 02:18:34 +0000 Laurie 2035306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sal, sending condolences. So sad to hear how your Mom suffered, but admire her pluck and great attitude through chronic pain. Thank you for sharing all, including the great photos.<br />Interesting to hear your thoughts,&nbsp; relative to our group conversation about aging parents. Patience really is a virtue, and something to be practiced. I would have had the same exact arguments about lasagna dishes!<br />I am thinking that it is a small gift for your Dad, maybe to be appreciated later, that the move was done before instead of after this terrible loss.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2035210 Thu, 13 Jun 2019 20:18:11 +0000 Helena 2035210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sal, I'm so sorry for the loss of your mom.

What a big year for you all. One knowledge that will sustain you is that you did the very best you could for Mum, at least that was my experience with Dad. You needed to talk about the lasagne dishes at the time! And such beautiful photos, and so good that you have the March celebrations to remember x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2033443 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 19:53:48 +0000 elpgal 2033443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry to hear of your loss.

When I think about my last words to my mother I suppose I could wish for more poetry, but I have to laugh because they were so true to our relationship. You did your best under very stressful circumstances for all your family. Remembering everything about my relationship with my mother and father is a continuing balm. I hope it will be for you too. Take good care of yourself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2033213 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 21:52:37 +0000 Sal 2033213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks. We all have been grieving over the sale of the farm and the home where we grew up - this was a challenge over the last six months.</p> <p>I do regret that many of the recent conversations with Mum were about reducing her books, or lasagne dishes, or glasses as they moved to a smaller place. We spent lots of time together but it was stressful at times. They had decided to move so we had no choice but it seems wrong in retrospect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2033179 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 20:20:49 +0000 celia 2033179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry to hear , Sally. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2033070 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 14:43:10 +0000 Sara L. 2033070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry for your loss.&nbsp; So many changes in such a short period sounds very stressful for your poor dad (and yourself as well). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2033001 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 09:29:17 +0000 Anonymous 2033001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so sorry, Sal. &nbsp;You and your Family are in my thoughts and prayers. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update/page/2#post-2032964 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 02:10:10 +0000 Joyce B 2032964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am very sorry for your loss.

Both of your parents sound like wonderful people, and the photos are charming. I admire your calm, Sal. Your family is very lucky to have such a fine and caring member as you.</p> <p>As you may know, I spend part of my time comforting people with the Bible-based, secure hope of a future where 'sickness, pain and even death will be no more here on earth.' (Revelation 21:3, 4) I understand that you have much to take care of right now, but if you would like to know more about what the Bible learns about the hope for the dead, you are always welcome to PM me. Many warm thoughts to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update#post-2032860 Wed, 05 Jun 2019 20:01:48 +0000 Gail 2032860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sending a hug your way </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/life-update#post-2032859 Wed, 05 Jun 2019 20:01:05 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2032859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Sal, I'm so sorry to hear this.
