Ok.....I have been through 4 years of taking care of my parents which I most gladly did as they were wonderful parents......having both of them die within 3 months of each other less than a year ago..
I have been through my son going off to fight in Iraq, having moments of downright terror during some of the news reports... and mercifully having him come home safe....
I have been through the experience of having an extremely close friend, something I have never had before.....and through all the ups and downs of that kind of relationship, it has brought me some of the most unexpected and desirable rewards.......which I expect will carry through a lifetime.
I have been through the discovery that my husband has incurable cancer and will give him support and love as best I can until the inevitable happens.
and....
I have been through an affair of the heart......a lover who told me that he loved me so much that he could barely express it.....a lover I have felt the same about and still do......but now...he apparently no longer has those same feelings........though....I still do...
So.....here I am....
I am hanging in there.....I am doing what must be done.....I am inherently strong and will remain so no matter what happens in my life....
and.....I am done blurting.
