Re: A Life of Trauma and Tragedy (Possibly Triggering Content)

Today I have to organise for my husbands body to be repatriated to our home town. The funeral director has been helpful, and sent paperwork I needed to sign to the hospital social worker. I have to give authority to move his body home.

 

I dont know when that will happen. But I just want him home now. And I need to get home too. So much I need to organise.

@Emelia8 

 

We will be thinking about you as you make your journey home Em - please make sure you have something to drink at least before you go home - even some sustagen will help if you can't eat yet

 

And I think having a nap would be good - otherwise take breaks as you drive home - for our sake - for my sake - 

 

For your sake - please

 

You will have so much to do over the coming days - maybe this is good - maybe not - only you know the answer to that question. And time alone - not easy right now

 

There is so much love in this thread - I am sending more
