Consent

"A tough lesson in life that one has to learn is that not everybody wishes you well." - Dan Rather



Today was an important day for me. I wasn't even planing to write, but I got big news today. I won't get into the details, but four years ago after my sister passed away we had an issue about being able to purchase a headstone for her grave. We needed consent from my brother-in-law and due to a complicated development of events, we were never able to get that consent. Today I am thankful that he decided to sign the consent form and let my family move forward and give Vero the respect that is due with a proper monument. This was more about me and my family's coping process I think and the ability to have a monument to visit. I am very happy today and my sister has been more in my thoughts than usual with is something I am also happy for. I miss Vero a lot and can sometimes hear her giving me advice or standing up for me or being proud of me.



I'm not ready yet
