Dear All,
Stepmother A died at 5.30 this morning. I contacted her daughters and broke the news to them. She was a good person with a nasty disease, and I am not talking about the cancer. I know my father will find it hard to carry on without her and I only hope he doesn't drown it all with drink but I think he will as he is powerless over same

I know for sure your loss was actually a long time ago.  I also know for me it was a big loss not to have a functioning mother and father when I was an adult as well.  I grieved for a long long time.  I know the funeral will be a tough one.  I hope you will lean on us for comfort and to let it all out.
I think you have accomplished a great deal in not going into codependence under such great stress.
Maresie.

Hate so much to hear about the loss of your loved one - praying and sending out thoughts of comfort and support for you and your family.

Also, for strength for you as you go thru this with your Dad too.

HUGS,
Rita
