New NB and Tania
As you have read from other posters, loss is something very difficult to come to terms with and we all have our own ways and means of "getting over" it
I lost my mother to cancer when I was 14, my brother died when he was 26 and the my father died of lung cancer when he was 65 and I an adult....
none of these can ever be forgotten
I truly believe that it is because of my faith that I managed to stay "sane", especially after my brother's death...
Like Pronkertjie, we were not able to attend my father in law's funeral,we were in Italy when he passed away and were only informed of his death on the day of the funeral.
My mother in law is quite old now and we all realise that she may pass away at any time.............. when we left her earlier this year, I saw tears in my husband's eyes.
May you be richly blessed and find peace
