I can rant and moan and people understand
I can post a problem and people come back with solutions
People know what I am going through
I have learnt that people are kind and thoughtful and care about me - a stranger
And tonight in the midst of all the suffering and watching my lovely husband in apin with terminal cancer another person, who has very recently been widowed herself through this cruel and nasty disease, took time out to post a response to my post and made me laugh out loud.
And I'm still laughing now. What a tonic. She has just made me feel so much better in the middle of all this crap.
If you do read this Yin and Yang - you're a star!

We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
