I talked to W. Her and her family had just gotten done with a walk in the park. Glad to hear they got out of the house.
W was still very choked up though, however, she is doing her best to be strong. I'm very proud of her strength right now, her mom needs that.
We talked about the schedule for D tomorrow, but really didn't come to a decision, she said she would call tomorrow to finalize.
I asked if she needed me to bring anything for her or D, a couple things came up and she said she would let me know if she thought of anything else.
I told her I would go through all of our pictures tonight and get the ones she requested. I told her I would go ahead and just grab everything we have of her dad, and they can go through them. I offered to help with the slide show since I have done that sort of thing quite a bit, but she said the mortuary is putting it together for them.
I ended it saying I was constently thinking of her and her family. She thanked me.
She has thanked me many times for all of my offers of help, but also declined pretty much everything. It is hard to know where to draw the line between being a "supporting friend" and feel like I am pushing too much.
I will be sending a living plant with a note. I've looked, but haven't decided on one yet. I was also unsure about sending it too soon.
It is confusing, but I am doing the best I can.
