Over the Shock and GALing 5

[Thinker]

Thanks for the great advice and support SP! As always, I really do appreciate it.

I am really sorry that you had to go through what you did yesterday. I know you were resigned to it (being dead...) but I kept hoping for your sake and your kids that she might decide for a last minute deferral - "Well, maybe we don't have to tell them today...let's wait a bit." Although "hope is not a plan" for any of us in our sitches, we can certainly hope for the best for each other.

I'm glad you are able to stay strong for your kids. Your posts about it really got me thinking about what it would be like for mine.
