I really like the part that if we do not bury our heads in the sand others will come along and help.

I am instantly reminded of Bill and Bob; two wounded saints of broken wing, drowning in a blistering bottle of a desert. Yet found in one another. And the rest of us who came after....I am fortunate.

The person I met on CompuServe that helped me… kept me from being hidden in my home.. going nutty.. Listened to my angst.. and my terrors and all the things that worried me

I wouldn't have had it any other way bud!!
Besides, I remember some nights where you hung in there while I lost my mind!!! LOL!! Oh...them was the days!

That clock was my grief and in remembering it, it also became my solace. It led me here; one dented metal-rimmed industrial clock of a kind that once sat above my head counting off the minutes into a near life-time of pain. How long it must've waited there; it's hand ticking the years sublimely by, unconcerned with the lives of the humans it served. Except for one woman named Janey whose grief was a cold fire but bloomed in the friendship she found here.
Raven Thinking of you every day and hoping things are getting better for you!
Kim, Paigeturner and Snuffie I've heard more than one person say over the years that it's a pity they don't teach classes in highschool about caring for our parents as they get older. Then again, I guess in highschool we wouldn't have listened anyway! Don't you guys sometimes wish we could've known "then" what we do now? Me too.
Love you guys!
Janey
