PR's new saga...
Dr. Richard Grossman:
Hi PR,
Just to let you know, I posted (in a new topic) an essay on grieving sent to me by one of my dear patients whose 27 year old son died suddenly, unexpectedly, and tragically. Not a book, but still this may resonate and be helpful…

Hugs,

Seriously. That is a huge and loving sacrifice on your part.
much love again

Yup Yup Yup. This is what the situation calls for Hops. And I'm having Twiggy-tantrum about having already done so much, I don't think there's anything else left to give... DEEEEEP breath..... rinse, repeat... until there is.

Hopalong:
Present too, PR. Helping Lighter make you soup.
Thinking several days means things might have moved forward.

Much peace, peace
Hops
