I am just now getting back to Connect after being out of town for a few days. There was poor service as to wifi or cell services. As @IndianaScott said, I hope you feel good about making that call, it sure sounds like it was a positive thing to do! Having a neutral ear to listen to you, and not feel like you are being judged, can make such a difference. Good for you finding out more about yourself, and acknowledging that! Many times we would like to just ignore the lessons, but look how calmer and feeling more able to cope we can get to.

My twin brother told me I insulted him almost 40 years ago, and has pretty much chosen to cut me out of his life. He has two daughters whom I have never met, nor even seen pictures of; likewise at least 2 grandchildren. Several years ago I sat myself down, and realized it was his loss, not mine. And his family's loss. There was an attempt to come to an understanding, but he chose to not participate, again his loss.

Live your life, make the funeral plans when you are ready, there is no timeline for that. Discover or rediscover hobbies that will feed your heart. Reach out to others as you have here, knowing that you have helped so many in relating your own tale. Get that additional PT and march in there with the express idea of getting your hip squared away!

What brought you a smile today?
