just to let you know that Paul has taken a turn for the worse. The tumour has begun to grow back and he has been taken off all treatment. Next week he is going to palliative care.. I have no idea how long he has here on earth but I am asking that if you can, could you send some prayers.also a while back I spoke of Rita.. she died early this week... peacefully but wisdom has gone with her.
I am tired. I haven't alot to say.. I sit wondering what I can blog about and nothing comes... kinda like blogging block.
I am not taking a break at all but I have no idea when I will post again. Maybe when my carrots need thinning or when the broad beans have flower or maybe I will be enthused when I spend the day in the garden tomorrow.... I just feel so drained
(I am going to try visiting blogs but please accept my apology here if I don't make it for a few days.. I am still thinking of my friends out in blog world.. you are like my rope to hang onto xo)

Sorry to hear that Paul has taken a turn for the worse and to hear about Rita's passing. Praying dear friend... {{hugs}}
I know exactly how you feel, my Dear. When this happened to my friend Cindy, the tumor unresponsive to treatment and all hope of a change for the better it was as if there was no air in the balloon, no wind in the sails. I looked around at my world and asked myself: What do you need to feel better?" I saw in my mind's eye little dancing figures, fairylike, hanging from tree branches and fences, dancing in the wind, dancing and celebrating. So, I went to my studio and made little clay resurrection figures, dancing people out of clay. And, when they were fired I brought them home and started a tradition that everyone who came to visit Cindy would be invited to sit down and make a little expression of solidarity with the mystery process of transition that was going on. There was a box of beads and ribbons, crystals and sparkelies, wings and such along with paint and glue for each person who wanted to made an expression of life and celebration to hang from the ceiling. It was a way to cope and deal with the inevitable that we were facing of loosing our friend. It was a very sacred time and it helped all of us left behind the most. Cindy could look up a see how much she was loved and cherished by others and it gave her courage to go forward into the unknown. It was a reminder to all of us as we reflected on our experience that life is fleeting and eternal all at the same time. It never ends for us, it just changes. Change is a good thing....
{{{warmest hug}}} Thinking of you, Paul and all your family.
Dear Robyn - There are no helpful words, only prayers for a peaceful passing for Paul and my prayer for you to take time to find peace within yourself as you say good-bye. Visit later when Paul has moved on. You have important but short time left. Use it well with and for him. We will be here waiting. Love, Annie
