Oh Barb, I’m so sorry. That’s so rough. Losing a parent we love is like we suddenly live on reclaimed marsh ground and there’s earthquakes everyday. Here if you need a hug!

I'll take that hug in October! That's an incredible analogy - my brain immediately went to San Francisco and Anchorage, with their devastating earthquakes. Today is a quake day for sure.

Barb, such a beautiful tribute. I hope that I will see you in October so I can give you a hug. As you said, grief is a tricky beast, it becomes a constant companion. I send you love and condolences.
