Life without him....

Nice to hear from you again Anne. I hope you are well and recovering from your operation.
How are you Grannie G? I often think of you.
The cancer charities are better funded than the Dementia ones, and one of them offered me the Indian head massage you discovered in India... How I wish I'd been able to arrange one for Rob....I'm sure it would have soothed him.
Hi Anne - lovely to hear from you, and that you can remember the nice bits of Rob.
I hope all the associated issues relating to your op are progressing in a positive manner.
I have wondered from time to time how you are getting on.

I'm glad you are well and enjoying an Indian head massage, Anne. We are plodding on and getting back to normal after a difficult winter, thanks for asking.
ThankyouJM. I still think of you when I see cyclists struggling up our hills!
Dear Anne, I remember you well, remember Rob, and it is lovely to hear from you. So often I have thought about you wondering how you are, I do hope your health is better despite the tiredness.
Yes it is hard when it stops... no more care home visiting, which as you say becomes a second home. I found myself missing the staff who were so supportive - several attended Henry's funeral. I thought I would visit them sometime after the funeral but apart from my health issues permanently preventing that, I discovered I could not do it even had I been able. Felt bad about that although have been in touch with Henry's named nurse with him from he went there and she attended Henry's funeral.
That has stopped though, she had talked of visiting me, but I do understand. Her Dad in another care home after years of home care died late last year, then 15 weeks later her brother about 50 died. Unexpected, sudden. A friend of a friend who knows her told me she was devastated. I did write to her but... I am forever grateful for all she did and her genuine caring for and about Henry, her support to me.
We were married a similar length of time, three months short of 58 years when Henry died. This September it would have been 60 years.
But I meant to write about you, not me.
That is lovely to read. Thank you for coming here and your update and I hope 2018 continues well for you, thanks for remembering us. It has been a joy to hear from you.
Every best wish and love

Hello RA. Yes, it takes a long time to get out of the daily routine of nursing home visiting and I found I missed what had over 3 years become my second family. I haven’t found ways of filling them either even after nearly four years. I have plenty of clearing to do but not the will to do it!
I hope you are feeling much better now and that all is well healthwise.
I hope we meet up again sometime.x

Oh, what a lovely surprise to hear from you again! It was just a couple of days ago that I was wondering how you are. Have you recovered from your op? It sounds as if you are able to focus on happy memories of Rob...I am so very pleased for you.
How could I have forgotten you? I have been thinking of you and missing your posts.
Hope you are back to stay.
....and has the owl in the tree near your home found a fiancé?
I'm well thank you Anne. Still trying to get as much from life as possible but also happy to be at home , by myself, with myself.
I hope your surgery has been 100% successful and a time will come when you are able to look ahead.
