[QUOTE="ksm, post: 724821, member: 12511"] I would be tempted to send a card, and a hand written note, about how proud you are of his accomplishments and hopes he has a good time with friends on his special day. Then the next paragraph about things you and husband are enjoying...even if you gave to embellish a little. Then actually go do some of those things. Sign up for a dance class, a book club, a local cooking class. Or take a trip with other seniors, or plan a vacation that you always wanted to take. Don't be sitting at home waiting for him to show up and grace you with his presence. Occasionally take a photo or send him a link to something you are thinking about doing. Instead of sending him a gift, make a donation in his name and let him know that is what you did to honor him...like to an organization he might have enjoyed when younger. Don't cut ties, just don't make him the focus of your life. Make other plans... Start a hobby, volunteer, etc. maybe he will nature! Ksm [/QUOTE]
