wow… i can hardly believe that 14-weeks has passed since i started participating in the grief workshop. it really does seem like a lifetime ago.

i am dog tired today, and i wish i didn’t have to drive all the way up there, but of course i’m looking forward to seeing everybody one last time, and celebrating our accomplishments.

it’s a potluck tonight, and i didn’t feel much like cooking anything so i bought a nice big piece of brie and some delicious crackers to contribute to the festivities.

i’m also planning on meeting my father and stepmother for coffee before the meeting, which should be really nice, since i haven’t seen them since they left for Mexico back in late February.

anyway, wish i could just go home and sleep, but i’m looking forward to having this thing done already!

great workshop, but i’m feeling SOOOOOO ready to move forward in my life.

i love you so much lori. thanks for helping me get through this terrible time.

i will always carry you in my heart, where it is safe and warm, and you can be surrounded by love.

but it’s time for me to let go, and learn to fly again.

i’m really looking forward to it.

bless you all… cary

  • Cary I am so proud of you not only for being so open and honest with us all, but for rebuilding your life, giving yourself permission to move on, and honoring Lori with your life. Caring for your soul is the greatest gift you give to others. Be well and be happy, my friend.

  • Hi Cary,

    Congratulations on completing the grief workshop! I know it was hard work and more than a little scary. When Doug was first diagnosed someone placed a quote in my mailbox at work. The quote was “Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue consistently”, by Maya Angelou. You have made this huge courageous step and I wish you all the best in your move forward. Keep smiling…

    Diane
