    Barbie a very happy belated birthday to you. Loved the card your DH gave you. Have to say thank you for always giving us a new month. Having this group is a lifeline, like a family but better because we all pick it.

    Yesterday my Jack was mowing the lawn and suffered a massive heart attack. The paramedics couldn't revive him. I'm so lost and miss him so much. I feel like my mind is running with thousands of thoughts that aren't going anywhere. I'm so sad. Have four of our five kids showering me with love and Jack's numbers friends wanting to support me... but really right now need to just grieve and find myself. The kids all volunteered to come but I encouraged them not to right now. I think I just need time to be alone and gather myself.
    Betsy

    I'm so sorry.

    OH Betsy... I am so very, very sorry for your loss. Sending love and prayers for comfort and peace. We are all here for you for whatever you need. I'm sure you're in shock and people will try to surround you. Take your time. These next few days will be a whirlwind and you'll be numb. Try to find the most trusted "someONE" to lean on. That's the best advice I can give.


    Happy belated birthday Barbie. Sorry I missed it.

    So so sorry for your loss Betsy. I have no other words. The same thing happened to my sister’s husband. So sudden.

    Betsy-sorry for your loss. My husband passed rather suddenly (was in ICU for 10 days). I understand what you mean about needing to be alone and feel and process.

    Tracey-prayers for cousin.

    Rita-it sounds like you are doing many positive things for yourself. I hope you continue to connect with your son and he receives and accepts the assistance he needs.

    Age, etc.-I'm currently 67 (68 in November). In 2006 i weighed about 225. I'm 5'6. Have slowly lost over the years. Lowest weight since joining MFP was 140 (a bit too lean). Was maintaining during Covid. Decided to quit smoking last June. Between that and holidays, weight went up. Currently 155, but it's coming off. Figure the extra weight better than the smoke. I walk abut 3 miles every day and do other exercise. Work full time. And oh-I had my thyroid removed in 1996. It is possible to lose the weight! (and keep most of it off).

    Off to clear some paperwork. I will no doubt be humming "Shall we dance" all afternoon.

    Take care all,

    Ginny in Ohio
