I'm with you on being open and frank about death. It's too often denied and ignored...even when people are very close to the end. I'm sorry you guys are going through all this. It's natural and a part of life, but it's still incredibly sad and depressing. I hope you're able to keep your spirits somewhat up in all of this. From what I know of your family, I think you'll be able to. Dinas last blog post..Isla Fisher

My goodness we creatives are truly weird and at times we do think the most inappropriate things ...but it keeps us sane I believe. You have a lot on your plate and it gladdens my heart to read about your relationship with Veeronica. I have a similar one with my son...he also blogs and has some great poetry which he often writes in response to world events. Kathleens last blog post..The Private Patient by PD James

I've been keeping up but not commenting, because, well ,really, you have quite enough to do! I wish I could give you real hugs, and to your mum and your family. You are all being amazing in the way you are dealing with this. Truly, I can't think of a better way. BTW I love the beakers - handmade should look as if it was made by an artisan - the Japanese potters always deliberately include imperfections to show a real person has made this. They are beautiful!

Glad Isaac is out of the hospital. Just like with G, not finding out what caused SEVERE STOMACH TROUBLE?? We haven't been mailing things back and forth, so what kind of bug is going round? Perhaps paranoid of me, but I think the news is not telling us what is really going on in the world. :[ Your mum had a bad report before. I am so blessed reading your entries and seeing her go through ups and downs, but living through best she can. You go, Nan! Mrs. Cs last blog post..Homeschooling. All Summer.

My life isnt nearly as busy as yours is right now. No wonder your head is spinning. I meant to comment on your previous post, your mum is so brave, coming from experience some people just give up on life (which broke my heart) but she seems to handle it all so well which makes her more of a hero. I couldn't imagine how hard it would be for her. Tanyas last blog post..Routine

Heh, my mind wanders off on crazy tangents too. I miss half of the important stuff being said because my mind has taken itself for a walk in the park………
Glad to hear Isaac is okay.

It never rains but it pours. I hope Isaac is ok. I hope you manage to get that wheelchair and oxygen sorted out too - some time out of the hospital will be good for everyone. Barbaras last blog post..I Need To Talk To You About Something
