Totally get that. Just spent an hour and a half trying to find a plumber who can come out next week. Do you have a local Facebook community group? I’ve used the one here a lot; the advantage is that as these are local people, if a tradesman has a lot of good recommendations from people you know live in the area, you can probably trust them. Asking neighbours for recommendations is also a good idea.

Does anyone else watch and listen to one of the Youtube videos ‘Forever Autumn?’ (Justin Hayward, Moody Blues.) It really resonates with me, especially as my husband played a lot of their music when we first met. ‘Forever Autumn’ is so relevant now.

Hello Jo
I was so sorry to hear about your health problems and I hope you didn’t think I was poking my nose in.
How on earth you cope with all of this is remarkable.
You are a strong lady.

Hello Jo
I totally agree peace and comfort is what we need and as you said that is absolutely what we
Would want for our husbands and wives partners
should the situation be reversed
I couldn’t bare to think of my Sam having to go through any of this.
Now I know what this is like grief, sadness
Misery loneliness despair helplessness just
hopelessness.
I am glad he will never have to.
Love and hugs to all

Hi Lydia
Used to like the moody blues.
We loved Dr Hook and went to see them a couple of times and I have all their music .
We played it all the time along with Joan Armatrading.
Can’t play any of it now.
Love and comfort.

Hiya Doreen.
We are not given a choice are we, i get scared i wont lie, there have been time these last almost 4 months life as seemed pretty pointless.
But my darling Gra fought with everything he had right up to his last breath for life, so if I give up I would be doing him a very big dishonour.
I I hope with all my heart I never do that to him he was strong brave and a fighter, so in his name I will try with all that I am to live and fight on.
Omg is it hard I long for his touch his warm embrace his voice with all its reasurance.
I have never been so scared so lonely in my entire life. But hopefully one day I will speak his name without tears and feel happiness again.

Hi Jo.
Sorry your feeling so down,I was chatting to a neighbour today who was bereaved fifteen years ago,and I mentioned the rollercoaster journey we are on,and she said it’s not a rollercoaster because that never levels out,it’s more like a ship in rough seas going up and down and fighting until it gets in to calm waters,makes sense I suppose.
Big hugs Ron.

Can’t listen to it. We saw Justin Hayward in the War of the Worlds production in Cardiff. So now it has me in floods of tears.

Hiya Ron , yes your neighbour as a very good point there, it is like been at sea, some moments calmer than others, some like been in torrential storm.
And we have to take the rough with the smooth till hopefully one day the calme seas are more .
