Good morning :-)

It is so lovely to come back to such kind thoughts and good wishes. I am so grateful for your thoughts and prayers over this rather difficult time.

The last week has been surreal in that spending time on a camp bed in the hospital was very strange. We were treated like royalty - the staff couldn't do enough for us and we were overwhelmed by their kindness. So very grateful to our wonderful NHS.

My husband's death was so very peaceful - again, something to be grateful for. He had been anointed and blessed by clergy friends and we have been surrounded by so much prayer that it's rather like floating on a cloud.

I will try and return each day but, if I haven't appeared by about 2pm, it would be good if someone put something inspiring on here. If we miss a day or two, it won't be the end of the world.

Thank you my dear, dear friends for your support and love <3 <3



for us all,

God, please enlighten my mind with truth, inflame my heart with love, inspire my will with courage, enrich my life with service. Pardon what I have been, sanctify what I am, and order what I shall be. Amen - Author Unknown

Hello all

It is with deep sadness that I have been asked by Cynthia to inform you all that her husband passed away peacefully this morning with Cynthia and their son beside him.

Cynthia is clearly drained emotionally, spiritually and physically but aims to return to posting when she feels very much stronger.

Rest eternal grant unto him O Lord and let light perpetual shine upon him. May he rest in peace and rise again in glory. Amen.

A lovely gentle poem Rose. Keeping Cynthia and family in my thoughts <3

Hello all

I hope that Storm Dennis isn't causing too many problems for anyone. Stay save folks.

Rose, that was an interesting poem and I don't think Cynthia will mind. It's good to have everyone's posts.

I have lighted candles in church this morning, hoping to lighten the darkness for all who are struggling today.

"Come unto me, all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11 v 28.KJ Bible)

Thinking of Cynthia and all her family right now. XX

"Nod

Softly along the road of evening,
In a twilight dim with rose,
Wrinkled with age, and drenched with dew
Old Nod, the shepherd, goes.

His drowsy flock streams on before him,
Their fleeces charged with gold,
To where the sun's last beam leans low
On Nod the shepherd's fold.

The hedge is quick and green with briar,
From their sand the conies creep;
And all the birds that fly in heaven
Flock singing home to sleep.

His lambs outnumber a noon's roses,
Yet, when night's shadows fall,
His blind old sheep-dog, Slumber-soon,
Misses not one of all.

His are the quiet steeps of dreamland,
The waters of no-more-pain,
His ram's bell rings 'neath an arch of stars,
"Rest, rest, and rest again."

Hoping Cynthia will not mind that this is not a religious offering as such. <3

Thoughts and prayers to Cynthia and family <3

Good morning to all, <3 <3 for Cynthia
