Thank you and hopefully speak again xx
This is a one bedroom flat but like you said it feels right, there are 37 flats on the complex and a high percentage have been in the same boat has myself but really nice people. Up to now anyway haha
Nice to be surrounded by people who understand

It sounds as though you are living in the same sort of complex of flats I hope to move to next year. I know I wonāt feel lonely there and can participate in activities when I wish.
My dear husbandās wish was for me to move there. We had hoped to move there two years ago but it became impossible because of his health.

This complex is through the local council and is spot on in a lovely location x
Whereabouts are you living ?
Well I hope you get somewhere nice and manage to get feeling Iāve gained, I retired at Christmas time but took a casual job at a day centre for aged and dementia, Christine worked there and the plan was to work together. Itās been on hold up till I plucked up the courage to start 3 weeks since. The role is giving me great comfort has Christine is fondly remembered and as a presence there

Donāt get me wrong itās not all a bed of roses has you know, I returned to my family home this evening and it wrecked me honestly but I had to call in to pick some items up. Seeing my neighbours was upsetting has we are lucky to live within a great community,

I was lucky enough to be with Christine has she passed away with family round her, Christine passed in peace and we were assured pain free. It was like sheād gone asleep and she looked beautiful has ever, this image I see regularly and is a great comfort

Iām so glad that you were able to be with Christine when she peacefully passed away. I was with my husband, too, he passed away in my arms. He was out of pain at last.
I miss him so much, but he is safely in my heart.
Take care x

I was with my husband till he passed away his last breath I will always keep with me and also tears in his eyes. He knew we were all there with him till he left us. The last moments with our loved ones will never leave us. Iām sure Christine knew you were there with her as my husband Terry did bless you xx Margaret

Christine had slight eye movement till the end but has I sat by her side with her sister she raised her left hand to meet mine for a couple of seconds and then peacefully passed away, this action was priceless and can never be taken away from me

You have to cherish every moment of Christineās passing as I did Terry. Loving a husband or wife as we do and then seeing them fade away never goes itās there all the time but itās a blessing that we were there with them holding their hand and saying that we loved them xxxxx Margaret

I agree about the emptiness. The only thing that gets me out of my bed is my dog. He was my husbandās dog and heās now 17yrs. Heās deaf now but he keeps me going. He can only manage a 10 min walk now but nothing else wrong with him. He wont last forever but will foster a dog then. As Iām too old for a puppy. Real good company. Better than some people.
