I’ve been thinking about you. I just wanted to check in with you to see how you are doing.
Lovely pic of your mum.

Thank you so much J,
It's been so hard, I should be grieving my mum but instead I'm embroiled in a battle to keep the house. I've lived here since I was 8 years old. My Dr is supporting me and written the council a letter that my mental health is complex and moving me could make me suicidal. Luckily for me, my friend is moving in so I won't be alone. My next council meeting is Wednesday so wish me luck.
I hope all is well with you xxx
Hey Caz. I hope you’re doing alright. I think of you often and wish I lived in your area so I could be there to help you out.
I don’t know how I would be in your situation, but you could guarantee that I’d be loud about it. And probably like a rabid dog. Or a badger. Or a wild boar.
In any event, somebody would get bitten.
Sending you much love and support.

Thank you Jenn, I appreciate that.
I'm still in limbo, still don't know if I can continue to live in my home. Still have no answers as to what happened to mum. I think 12 weeks will be up by the end of June, so hopefully then, we will know more. My friend stays with me a few days a week so I'm not completely alone. I am hoping to get a new cockatiel, but am putting everything off until I know about the house. I cannot focus on anything until that is sorted out. Life sucks, when I am more settled, I will be in touch and tell you all about it.
Thank you so much for keeping me in your thoughts. You are so sweet and a good friend to me. Love you loads xxx
Hi MissT.
It’s been a bad 6 weeks.
My MIL passed unexpectedly and my world just blew up.
I wanted to thank you for your kind words. While you say there’s nothing you can say, the fact you said something means the world to me.
Can’t talk a lot right now, but I wanted to thank you. 💕

I'm so sorry for you loss J. You know I've been there recently, I'm just here when you need me. Take your time. You are all in my thoughts xxx
Thanks MissT. First, like your experience, it was a shock. Now we’re dealing with the aftermath. It’s been a lot.
Hanging in there.
I’ll be back soon. Just a lot on my plate right now.
Xoxo. j
It's just truly awful Jenn and you completely have my sympathy. Take all the time you need but I'm here if you want to chat or rant or anything. Thinking of you. Last week I lost my Auntie, 6 months after mum in exactly the same circumstances it's eerie. Far too much death in this world xxx
Hello MissT! Well, it’s been interesting to say the least.
I’m so sorry to hear about your Auntie. This has been a bad year. 2 mums, 1 auntie and 2 friends. I can’t be done with this year fast enough.
My MIL passed exactly 20 years to the day as her mother did. Same circumstances. Freaky.
My FIL is living with us temporarily. He has dementia and is nearly deaf. Some days it’s not so bad. Lots of the same stories and general wackiness. Other days he’s down right surly. And girl, I don’t take that shit from anyone, I don’t care what your circumstances are.
We’re in the process of cleaning out his house. My inlaws are one step away from being hoarders, so the clean up has been hard. You step into the house and you don’t even know where to start, there’s just so much to deal with.
And my SIL? No help. And a super bitch.
Willie is doing better. He tends to shut down when overwhelmed and for a while he just couldn’t deal. The boy has been holding down the house and has really stepped up in just being there for us. He was really close with his granny, so he was struggling there for a while too.
Me? Well I just stuff my emotions deep down inside and build a wall around them and never talk about them again. You know, the most unhealthy way to deal with loss possible. And to be honest, right now I have too much life going on to be taken down by sadness. I’ll deal with that later.
Right now I have too much life babysitting a 93 year old. Much like a toddler with a foul mouth and a mustache.
I just wanted to let you know I’m doing ok. I hope you are as well.
Autumn has just arrived. It’s my favorite season. I know it’s simple but the weather is making me happy at the moment- and I’ll take it.
💕 J
Hiya Jenn, I am so, so sorry for your loss. I agree, this year needs to end. It's not great to stuff down your emotions, but I get that sometimes you need to put them to one side for later cos there's just so much to do.
I'm glad that Willie is doing better and the boy has been helping. Make sure you take time for yourself. we really need to get that chat sorted soon.
My Auntie died in the same circumstances as mum almost 6 months to the day. Her last words were "I'm fine" just like mum. My cousin found her in the morning, not in bed, but at the side of the bed, just like I found mum. Spooky.
I've just been with my sister today to register mum's death. It's taken this long to get the post mortem results in order to get the death certificate. Apparently, as the pathologist is also a forensic one, they get called away to do crime work and the other stuff gets pushed down the list. Not great for families waiting.
I have a new path in life. I am in the process of setting up a charity, bereavement support. I feel this is my destiny now.
Enough death. I'm glad that we have entered your favourite season and you are taking some pleasure from this. Just know that you can vent to me any time, you don't need to bottle it up.
Take care and look after yourself. Huge hugs xxx
