Oh MKbaglover... :( sending you lots of love and good wishes. Sounds like things have been really tough, I remember your posts. I hope you find some comfort in the letters. Your parents sound like they were devoted to each other. Getting away will be just the thing. How long are you in NYC for? x

Thank you very much. They were devoted to each other and in the end it was clear he just wanted to go and be with her. I'm in NYC for 5 nights and planning to got that Italian you recommended ages ago! I'm looking forward to some sun and warmth as it has been a very long, cold, wet winter.

Thank you, you are right nothing can prepare you fur how you will feel (even when you know it is going to happen and you try to prepare). I know all holidays are needed in some shape or form but this is definitely needed, if only to give me something positive to plan and deal with!

Sounds like a good trip. So sorry, that would have been very hard, i did the same many years ago(altho it was my grandparents home), it felt odd going through such personal things ..

Thank you, it really is odd. Finding the diary my mum kept on the run up to her wedding made me realise how young she was to be getting married- 18 (although back then it was a bit more the norm). I was still in secondary school at that age!

Well we have just booked a holiday to NYC on memorial day weekend! It has been an extremely tough 8 months for us, and this is a well needed break. For those who remember me posting about my Dad and his time in ICU and his recovery from that, his leukaemia became aggressive and within a week from that diagnosis he was gone. I'm looking forward to getting away and forgetting about having to deal with his estate etc (my mum died a while back and my brother isn't able to). Nothing prepares you for emptying a house with all the memories, pictures etc. The worst was finding all the love letters my parents wrote to eachother when they 17/18 and he was in the Airforce in the 60s. Sad to read but pleased to have them, they were inseparable for 40 years.

So sorry to hear about your loss. It's never an easy thing to deal with the loss of a loved one and then to have to deal with an estate on top of that. Very tough. I feel for you. At such a difficult time a trip away will be much needed. It's good to have something fun to look forward to.

MKbaglover, I'm so sorry to hear of your father's passing. It's a hard thing to lose a parent. I know how it feels to deal with the handling of an estate. It's hard but you will get through it. Don't rush either; just take your time. Your parents sound like they were a classic love story. I hope you will find comfort in those letters. They will both live in your heart & now they are together again with the Lord. I hope you enjoy your trip to NYC. You need to take care of yourself & get away& relax. Sending you hugs. :hugs:

Oh dear... I hope you enjoy yourselves, I know how hard it is to deal with loss. I went through that myself in 2014 but it feels like it was just yesterday. The pain never goes away but you learn how to cope better. As for the letters and pictures, that's special and so sweet. Enjoy your holiday!

Yes have a hearty meal or two at Patsy's! Do some shopping, get up late, have long walks... Look after yourself. It'll be a rejuvenating break for you. It has certainly been a long winter. xx

Thank you all. It is lovely to read all the messages, I will take the advice given here, it us very easy to just keep going despite how you feel. Cdtracing, I appreciate what you said about not rushing. Someone else has said that to me too and it is what I have been doing, I need to slow down.

I can relate to that, i was 17 ;) It's def not as common anymore but a few still do, my oldest followed the young path as well. I think it's wonderful to hear of marriages lasting like that. :smile1:

Hi gals I'm in the hospital! I'm 5 cm dilated and haven't felt any strong pains yet so no epidural still. I went to my doctor appt this morning and she told me to go to the hospital since I was 4 cm dilated and cervix is open. So they're worried if my water breaks then she may come out really quick. They admitted me since they said my water is about to break. I think I'll wait it out until the pain increases and then get the epidural, then they'll likely break my water if it doesn't break on its own!
