What an amazing insight. Dealing with loss, trauma, and other stresses is a lifelong process with peaks and valleys, tears and joys, and we each go through it in our own way.
It’s a 10- hour drive or more for me to see my adult children and grand children. In the last year and a half, my youngest son has had two brain tumor surgeries, my daughter has had a miscarriage and a premature baby who spent 10 weeks in the NICU, and is still struggling with health issues, and my oldest son had a stroke and heart surgery.
I’ve had to support them from a distance and juggle work responsibilities and taking time to visit them. Now I’m leaving a job and community I love to move closer to my children.
It certainly isn’t the same as loosing a child but it still has a tremendous impact on a parent’s ability to cope with life.
Carter and Faye, I appreciate your willingness to share your lives with others. I have learned so much from you and appreciate your friendship. I’ll miss seeing an working with you. Best of luck to you and your family.
We will miss you, Rex! Thanks for your friendship, support and encouragement. All the best!
