[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 233367, member: 1991"] I've been wondering how you were getting on, it's been such a terrible time for you. The priest sounds very wise. It's going to be different, very different for you. Hold on to the things that hold you together (your painting, your love of nature around you especially the birds) and let this be your grounding point, for you and the kids. It's natural for the kids to be anxious about what happens to them - your health has been a worry for them for some time. This was all very unexpected for them. They are going to need reassurance, over and over. Perhaps moving to be nearer family will make the kids feel more secure, since they will see that they need never be alone. The trouble is, you shouldn't make any big decisions while you are grieving, but this is the time when most pressure is on you to make such decisions. Can you get someone to come and stay with you for a while? It could give you time to find your feet again, to be in a better frame of mind to make wise decisions. For now, go get some sleep. A lot of the bustle is over, for now. Thinking of you, husband also worrying about how you're going. Marg [/QUOTE]
