Still waiting for that other shoe to drop, but now have a bit of a plan. Went to therapy session along with my suffering loved one, tears were shed but it was healing. It really struck me how easily the world could throw away my loved one. Moral emptiness is the state of the world.

Manuel Moe, thank you sharing. You are not alone.

This situation is difficult. I am glad you have a plan, however provisional.

Keep us posted.

Hello Manny,

It's really good that you could talk about the problems together.

Moral emptiness indeed! It's a struggle to look for the good and to keep things in balance.

Wishing you both the best.

I'm glad you were able to find a little bit of healing, Manny Moe. I'm sure your loved one doesn't deserve to be thrown away, and neither of you deserve to suffer. Thank you for keeping us posted.

Manuel Moe I hope some weight has lifted off those shoulders you carry. Breath can pass without a quiver or cry. It’s unfair when the people whom help you can’t take that pain away. But as we all know we need to feel it as it’s healthy too. It’s how we deal with it that’s the key.
So very much I’m awe of how you cope with so much going on. Admire your strength.

I think you can be great MM…

… if you stop trying to be…

… even for 60 seconds…

You can still be great without your foot constantly planted on the gas.

You’re not going to drop all the way to failure everytime you ease off a little; or even a lot.

As scary as it may feel, resting is great.

Thank you, Mental Fairy. I wish I could give the details but it is not my story to tell. I must live moment by moment and keep busy
