It was 4 years ago today that Sil died from a pulmonary embolism following surgery for a ruptured disc. So unexpected. I cannot begin to say how proud I am of my daughter and small granddaughter (age 10) for the way in which they have rebuilt their lives. Dd also has health issues of her own to contend with which hasn't made things any easier for her. Life is what we make it. Seize the day everyone.

Your post makes me feel ashamed Katek .

I will try to remember your DD, DGD late DSiL when I have feelings of self pity.

Seize the day, indeed for none of us know what is right around the corner.

Wishing you and your family lots and lots of sunshine in the years ahead.

Sad indeed, Katek, I'm constantly in awe of how folk here and in my "real" world cope and survive really awful circumstances. Thinking of you and your lovely family today flowers

Your daughter and granddaughter have come through the hardest of times, well done to them and to you for supporting them. I have been in the same situation so know how sad it all is.
It does make you take stock and not stress the small stuff.
Thinking of you all flowers

These kind of anniversaries are always hard. I wish you, your granddaughter and daughter all the best. It must have been a very hard four years.
