You just need to learn to slow down and take care of yourself first. And you know that you have friends who are there to help out in what ever way we can. I mean I would gladly cook you dinner and bring it and drop it off. So will Corrine and everyone else.

Even though I understand to some extent what you’re going through, on another level I’m well aware that no one else can truly understand what you are experiencing. Thanks for your courage in writing about this.

Really, if this had to happen, at least it happened in autumn- the most comforting season of them all.

I find fall are very unstable time made all the more surreal by the beautiful weather.

I’m trying to learn to slow down and take care of myself, although honestly, I’m the worst patient- even when I’m the one trying to help myself.

People will be patient, do what you need to do. I so wish that I had some words of real comfort here. Warm thoughts… xo, mel
