Thank you for being so open and honest with yourself and sharing that with us. Your words bring me profound sadness and calm, simultaneously.
From this atheist/quaker/jew to you, blessings to you and your sons. Take care of yourself and those around you, as you continue to do. Thank you for sharing your journey. 🙏🫶🤟
What I take from this note is that the ability to disconnect head from heart is something that Olga and I shared. It is something I admired in her, and possibly she related to in me. We would often share good laughs at the lunacy of any given situation, I would crack a joke, she would say smile with a glint in her eye and say..."Oh Gail, I appreciate you." and G-D knows I appreciated, no, loved Olga.
She was so even-keeled, and unflappable. I never imagined the toll this was taking on her body. She just always held it together, and that was something I admired, I still do. But I will take this lesson to heart and understand that it is important to feel your feelings, and not allow cognitive dissonance to eat away at our health. The feelings have to go somewhere, and like a pressure cooker one needs an escape valve. I believe that was likely you and the boys to Olga. Sending so much love.
You sure you’re only 34??? This kind of thought process usually comes a bit later in life….,, but you’ve lived a lot of life in the last month……,, the boys are going to be ok……Having a dad with your EQ is such a blessing! You will grieve forever! Just at different times- and in different ways- I’m so glad you and Olga created 2 beautiful boys for this world!
