Late to this news - I am catching up after taking a Substack reading break. I’m sorry for your loss. I related to the sentiment about the last normal moments before hearing the news. Thanks for bringing us along in your grief.

We love you and think of you and your family daily. The death of a loved one is always difficult. Although the pain may never go away entirely, and you will never not miss them, it does ease a bit over time. I imagine writing through the pain will help. Hugs, love, and light, g

Oh girl... what must you and yours be going through. Sorry doesn't cover it.

Thank you for all your words have done for me, and the introduction to the unknown, to me, Watsky. I wish I could do some good for you.

thanks, Lindsey. Is it weird to say that I pulled both "death" and the 3 of swords in the days before he died? AM I PSYCHIC?
