In reply to the discussion: Hello from Desert Grandma [View all]EuterpeThelo
(446 posts)48. Oh, Desert Grandma...
I am so, so sorry for your tragic loss. My heart hurts for you so very deeply.
(IYour post stopped me in my tracks, actually. My dad passed from squamous cell in the mid-aughts, and my mama five years ago this week from glioblastoma that led to a brain bleed - the latter just a year after my life partner of two decades passed from COVID. So please know how much I understand on so many terrible levels.)
They haven't invented the words to assuage this much pain, so I will just say that this community is holding you in our hearts. Please be gentle with yourself. Sending you so much love and light.
