02-11-25 potluck
OK, so today the manager at the Groundfloor came and picked me up, which was wonderful, with my pot of chilli which unfortunately there was so much food at the potluck that there was a ton left over so I got Ashlée to come and pick it up at the end of the day and take it home to her and her dad and freeze the rest. I probably should’ve kept some for myself. it was a day of a lot of stuff. I am under an extreme amount of pressure to get things done, but I’m also really holding my boundaries which is good.
I got a message from Reid, Jackie‘s son, that she is to be cremated on Thursday or Friday. I was able to ask him the questions that I wished I had when I first talked to him, and it turns out that her COPD and lung cancer took her out in the end. The amazing thing was when I asked him what time she died and I told him how at nine thirtyish his time I started to worry about the women in my life and calling them and messaging them to see if they were OK. It turns out that at a similar time he and his girlfriend started worrying about his mom so they called the care centre and they said no she was fine and then all of a sudden he was given the message to come quickly and he arrived at 12:45 and she passed at 1:10. What an incredible blessing that he was able to be there and she was not alone when she died, which was one of my worries that I was afraid to ask about, but also how incredible is it that the people that she loved the most and loved her the most were so connected at that moment
