Dear Anne,
I didn't take time to read all the other response but I wanted to tell you that I am so very, very sorry for all that you have on your plate right now. That is so sad about your brother.

I hope that things will ease up and maybe you can find some way to honor your brother in your own way.

What a difficult time. I am sending you warm hugs and hoping that soon you may feel better and come to terms with all that is going on in your life.

I hope your husband does well and hopefully you can get your computer situation resolved soon.

Much Love,
Nancy

Dear Sweet Kind Koala

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sorry the SIL was so darn inconsiderate. In your own time you will find a way to say goodbye and your brother knows how you are feeling.

Here's a great BIG HUG for you. You and dear hubby will be in my prayers. Hoping the surgery was a success.

Take care of yourself. Sending some good luck the puter will hold on a bit longer.

I realise it's the middle of the night for you guys, but I wanted to say thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart.

Your kindness is just unbelievable.

I just left DH at the hospital and although he's as high as a kite and feeling no pain (Morphine), his operation went well. If the bleeding eases down overnight, he should be home sometime tomorrow. Hopefully it will, and he'll be back here with me, where he belongs.

I can't talk about my brother any more at the moment, the pain is still too raw and I can't see the monitor for the tears, but I wanted to thank each and everyone one of you, including everyone who send a PM of condolence.

Thank you all.

I'm so glad your DH is doing well, and hope he's able to come home tomorrow, too!

How are you feeling? Over your stomach bug? Never a good time for that..I hope today is a much better day for you!

Hugs & prayers
Kris

I'm so sorry about your brother ((Anne)). Try not to feel guilty, you couldn't have possibly known that this would happen. I was estranged from my brother for a few years also, we are talking now but it's very hard to trust again. I'm thinking about you and saying prayer right now .

Hi Anne~ I haven't been online for a few days, but wanted to let you know I'm still keeping Russell and YOU in my prayers.

You are an amazing person and I have been thinking of you nonstop!

Hope Russell got home OK and you can both rest and feel better. You have to take care of yourself; that's a royal order.

Oh Anne, I am so sorry. Of course, I will give you a hug. I'll even give you a more than one if you promise not to feel guilty that you were unable to say goodbye to your brother.

If the opportunity had presented itself, I am sure you would have lovingly extended the olive branch. You have nothing to feel guilty over. Just try to remember the good times.

I missed the post about Russell's surgery. I'm sorry. Of course, my thoughts and prayers will be with him and you. Please try to keep us updated.

Until then, I'm sending big s your way with lots and lots of love.
