Ted is better, and my meeting went well!
Thanks for all the prayers, Ted is much better, still has a cough, but I see definite improvement, which is a good thing, because he is stubborn and refuses to go see the doc.
I am better too, still a cough, so I am sticking to my yoga till that is better.
I did my yoga today, I feel so good after I do it!
Well, my grief support group was real good, very emotional but I am glad I went. I did alot of crying and so did all the others, we talked about the symptoms of grief and there was a whole page listing them and I have about 90 % of them. They also gave us something called “The Mourners code of rights” This is it in a nutshell:
- I have the right to be sad and to cry without worrying what others think.
- I have the right to choose whom I will talk to about my grief. It is not my fault if the feelings of others are hurt because of my choice.
- I have the right to make decisions for myself. My grief doesn’t mean that I don’t want to be involved.
- I have the right to mourn the loss in my own way, even if it is different from others.
- I have the right to be angry because my loved one has died. My anger is part of the grieving process.
- I have the right to get outside help for myself. Sometimes I need to talk with someone who is not involved with my grief.
- I have the right to take care of myself and to find ways that help me cope with my grief.
- I have the right to enjoy my life without feeling guilty.
So I think this class will be good, goes for 6 weeks.
Plus, a side note, I was sitting right in front of a bowl of chocolates, and they had cookies too, and all I had was coffee!
And we may have a pastor to do the service, not sure on that, yet. Love you all, have a good day!
