Budget buster - funeral!

[Swimalie]

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and words. I know it will sink in eventually, we will heal and move on, but for now it feels so raw, especially with Christmas this week, and I feel so bad that I couldn't be there with DH, but there was really no way we could make that work, so I just have to do the best I can.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It will feel raw for a while but one day you all will be able to move on and be okay. On Feb 1st, 2001 we celebrated my husband's last day as a police officer with champagne, just the 2 of us. We were moving to a dream location in 3 months and in the mean time, he was going to Quantico for 3 months of training. The next morning his dad died suddenly. Our whole world spun out of control for 3 weeks as my husband had to postpone his training. I was then in charge of selling our house, while working and such. But once a few weeks passed, things got better. Then months, then years and now we all feel better. Hang in there and be as supportive as you can.

So very sorry for your loss, also not being able to be with your husband at this very difficult time. Hope his flight there goes ok and he can finalize things over there as quickly as possible. It will be a very stressfull time for him - hope there are relatives there that can share his load with him .
