Re: 1/28 Willow AMPS~188

Can you take a nap now, and set an alarm (or two, just in case you sleep deeply)?
 
Re: 1/28 Willow AMPS~188

I was going to nap, but then I started coughing again. Now I'm settling into mania and likely wouldn't be able to sleep.

Jordon, I missed your earlier post. I'm sorry to hear of the death of your friend. What a tragedy! Grieving any unexpected death is hard enough. Add in the questions, it's truly heart breaking and mind bending. I hope your friend has found peace.

Willow, we love the good numbers, but it would be nice if you could give mama a break.
 
Re: 1/28 Willow AMPS~188

Thanks Linda! One of the biggest things I'm struggling with right now is that he made a small attempt to reach out to me in November and I didn't call him when he first gave me his new number and said things weren't going well for him because I didn't want to bother him at work, but then I got sidetracked and never called him. So even though I know it's not my fault, I still feel some guilt from the "what if's".

I'm so sorry that you are having to deal with this unexpected loss.

Now, if Willow would just come back to the blue floor!

Aw, Jordan...
It's hard for me to say this in print, due to worrying that it may sound wrong to you being typed and not spoken-
but from my time as a grief counselor I must tell you- I believe the guilt is misplaced.
My experience has been that there ARE no "what ifs" or "if onlys"...
When a tortured and exhausted soul is TRULY reaching out for rescue, there won't be any ambiguity...
he would have made it clear to you if there were any way in which you could have helped him.
Sometimes people come to a point where no other outcome can be envisioned...
and that choice cannot be influenced by any amount of love.
Understanding the why is often beyond our power-
all we can do is grieve, and hopefully one day appreciate the beauty of the bond we shared while they were with us.

Thinking of you in this difficult time...

Hi Jordan - I am sorry for the loss of your friend. Mannie and I send many comforting hugs. I hope you can get past any guilt feelings that are there - we all think along those lines. In time it will pass, and you can focus on the friendship that you did have.

Thanks for visiting Mannie, and your comment there. It is the approach that I have - exposing that little guy to as much of the outdoors that I can, let him learn and discover, and explore. He has such fun doing just that and getting as dirty as he can be. For me, the imprinting that he is receiving now is invaluable. I wouldn't vhange it for anything. The dirty clothes will wash. The experiences are irreplaceable.

Enjoy your day today. Very nice amps for Willow!

(((Jordan))), We are very sorry for the loss of your friend. I hope that time will heal your hurt and that you will be able to reflect on the good times you shared without guilt.

In deep sympathy,

Ella
