Dear Liz
Been thinking of you. Such a sad difficult time for you with Robin's passing leaving a massive hole in your life. After what took 24 hours a day so intensly for months suddenly leaves you time rich, but with an empty gap.

It's 5 weeks for us now since my mother died and the 2 weeks we waited for the funeral felt so strange, catching up on sleep, but being unable sometimes to sleep, going over and over conversations past or situations with being distracted easily such a major part.

I would like to read your blog, but have been unable to find it - do you or some other member have a proper link?

You are and have been a very brave woman through these past months. I think with you I understand what the link Vinod gave about cancer survivor can sometimes mean when it includes relatives.

I hope the next weeks go by as well as possible and that your family can give you comfort.

you should be able to read them as a guest but if not just register and then go to ocf cancer blogs on the forum.

Thank you. Realised I have been a member of that forum for a long time, but just never really went there or posted and had trouble getting in as was already registered. I think Vicki told us about it. What anguish you have both been through.
