No breakdown yet, just hanging in there. I did give myself permission to not ride yesterday and spent the afternoon reading instead.

Today is my last day of teaching yoga at the studio and I'm happy to be done for now - I need a break.

We're waiting for Mr. Fishy's mom to pass away. It was unanimous among the family members that she was to be taken off of any supportive care (respirator, feeding tube, whatever) and allowed to die, as there was no hope for any type of recovery. It is a shame that they can't just "put her down" like a pet - it would be faster and easier on her, I'm sure.

I fear that we'll be going to his and hers funerals next weekend.

Good that you took some time to chill out and read. You have such an incredible load on you right now :(

Good thoughts and vibes coming to you and to Mr. Fishy in the coming days and weeks to get through all of this. :hug:

I am so sorry. My mom was at the end for a long time, and it does seem so strange that we can usher our pet friends to the next world, but the human body, which is so incredibly resilient has to be allowed to go at it's own hanging-on-to-the-bitter-end pace. I get why, but when you are the one standing there, watching and waiting, it seems so senseless.

Fishy-my thoughts and prayers are with you at this awful time. As you already know, you and Mr. Fishy are doing the right thing for his mother.

Thanks, everyone. Mr. Fishy's mom passed this morning, thankfully. My friend's service is next Saturday - the day before my birthday and three days before hers. :lonely: :,(

Gosh Fishy I just don't know what to say. I don't there are words to do it all justice. Just know we are thinking of you and Mr. Fishy, and the people who have passed, as well as their loved ones and families.... sending heaps of peace and comfort your way.
