Bye Sarah

What a tough day it has been, fraught with emotion! Sarah has gone now and it was to say the least a bit traumatic as she wanted to make a fast non tearful exit and did leaving her poor Mum a little taken aback.

One daughter thinks for no reason that my quietness all week means I’m not talking to her. Really! As if I would do that! I have been quiet that I will admit and today I have hardly uttered a word. I have also been buying things online a sure sign of stress.

So it is now late at night and we are all heading for bed.I ought to go and comfort J I guess but I’m not sure I have much to give.

Part of my quietness has been the inner turmoil as I try to come to terms with my new awakening spirituality.

Quite sad tonight as we face a long haul in to the summer with us readjusting again to caring for our parents while our children take charge of us - well not quite but you know what I mean.

We have weeks of appointments, hospitals and operations and birth to come.

I hope I can gather my strength together for all that is to come.

Take comfort from the fact that Sarah looks really happy. What a tale she'll have to tell. A wonderful opportunity.
I know it's no use saying that just now!

Hope the appointments are going smoothly. I know you'll all miss Sarah, and worry a little too. It's a wonderful experience to be part of, and they'll be non stop chatter of all she's seen when she gets back to make up for her absence :) rache
