I don't say sister often because I didn't think of her as my sister anymore. My sister was lost so long ago I can't remember when last I recognized her. The triangle of grass in your garden is the best memorial I can think of. It made me cry. When my sister was less ill, before the drugs took her from us, she would have laughed and laughed to think of herself memorialized in this way on the other side of the world. Thank you.

I'm so sorry, Lisa. I cannot imagine what you and J are dealing with, and the inevitability really doesn't help as it ought. So very sorry for your whole family's pain.
Thank you Susan. It does help, somewhat, the inevitability, or removes the paralysis that comes with shock. It makes it possible to do the things that have to be done, the things I want to do for my parents so they can stay home and be with their friends.
J, as always, is managing the way she does. I'm learning from watching her.
I just now read of this, and I am so sorry. I'm sorry that she died, I'm sorry that it was inevitable, I'm sorry about the wallpaper and the crematorium guy.
Thanks A, I am too, so sorry about all of it, thank you.
