What a week and I didn't even whine!
It seems hard to realize all that has happened in one week. Start off on the positive: last Sunday while talking with friend over dinner, God gave me an ah-ha moment and clearly outlined the 'format of each chapter' I am to write. Wow and wow again. In awe! So excited to start again. On Monday, a friend brought here adult son to my house, took me to Canadian Tire where she helped $ - for me to buy a new car battery and her son installed it. I am now mobile again, after clear instructions to start the car twice a day if the temps are -5c or lower. Good to know. What a blessing. But then... Monday, Dec 8th, was the 3rd anniversary that Dennis (late husband) was admitted to hospital, with a brain tumor, never to return home again. Monday night, the friend that helped with the car battery text me that our mutual friend had died in palliative care, for a Brain Lesion. Tuesday morning, 3am PST, my brother-in-law had a stroke, Brain Clot, and air ambulance from his home town to Vancouver General. I texted the prayer warriors I know and left it with them. He lived through two stroke procedures, yesterday he was transitioned from ICU to a ward, now waiting for transportation to pick him up and take him back to local hospital for further treatment and rehab. Most of week, little sleep, texting with sister through out the night on Tuesday and days following. Wednesday, I got a call and registered to attend a Grief Support group in May 2026 at PCN via doctor request, filled out forms, interview from ? on the 23 Dec to see if I am a good fit, interesting. Thursday: Zoom meeting with two ladies: explaining what W2W (widow 2 widow) meeting were and the church we were talking to are on board, to have one perhaps or to co-operate in sharing information. Friday- I have recently finished course modules for becoming a Grief Support facilitator through Connection Streams (W2W) and had my interview on Friday, to see if I was a good fit, LOL. Unlike PCN, it is a Christian organization. Group will not be until Fall 2026, so lots of time for reading and training; other group experience.
