@schneiderholics The money is coming out in waves, don’t count it out yet if you did all the sign up stuff. They started on May 11, got mine today but my partner has not received his yet. Our names are at opposite ends of the alphabet so maybe they’re doing alpha order?? I hope you get yours!
@midwestbimbo Hopefully the responses help you feel less alone and more understood. My Mom died 28 years ago and my Dad two years ago. I miss them both every single day and Mother’s/Father’s Day give me lots of big feelings too. Sending love, from a stranger who gets you. 🩷
@SecondGizmo@yfcherries Different locations support different places locally. My two closest are technically in different towns and the proceeds from one go to the hospital and from the other to the local food pantry.
@jaunty_aphorism It’s so cliche to say but really it’s just one day at a time. And if one day is too much right now, you cope for the next five minutes. And then the next. Until it’s a day. It takes time. And it’s hard. And it sucks. But one day it won’t be the first thing you think about. Hugs.
@Myyuh666@itsagorlsworld@broadwaybabyto Yup, my husband had his taken out as a child but they grew back!! Learned when he got tonsillitis in his late-20s, was a verrrrry confusing few minutes after the diagnosis until we learned they can come back!
@BigJed_one I applied to adopt a senior from our local Senior Wish and she wishes for a long sleeve top and body wash. Simple and necessary items. She will be getting those and much more.
