    I always wonder if it is less painful if the dead is sudden as with car crash or not.

    My mom had a 6 months deathbed due to lung-cancer(smoking) a few years back and it did not hurt at all. It was salvation in a certain way.

    Condolences, Silvery.

    That is something. I'm sure that is must still have been pretty awful, but small mercies, I suppose.

    Yesterday was one of the first Saturdays in a while that I got to spend pretty much the entire day with my family. I've been working 7 days a week for many months, and usually have to bow out of family plans to keep up with my work commitments. Yesterday, though, the stars aligned properly, and I was out with my family nearly the entire day. It was awesome. Greatly needed. Oddly enough, today my wife has been far more affectionate than normal. Hmm... I wonder if there's a connection.

    :idea:

    I just noticed Silvery's note. Sorry about your loss. It's never easy to lose a loved one, whether they are young or old.

    Thanks. The funeral is on Friday but then we're taking her ashes back to Nottingham (about 2 hours away) to be buried with my Granpa and that's not going to be for another month or so. Closure don't come quick in this family!

    Weird, this morning I had a dream within a dream within a dream and I woke up out of every dream, in my dream, because they were so absurd until I was eventually awake. Very inception-esque.

    It doesn't have one yet. On the other hand, when I have handed my essays in on Monday, I'm sure that situation will change. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Marceror, but I thought you should know the truth. ;)

    Then it is the race of Decados that we shall have to place our trust. Err, that's too LotRish, isn't it?

    What I mean to say is, I shall have to entrust this worthy role to Decados.

    If it makes you feel better, my grandfather's ashes are still sitting in an urn on the fireplace mantle. He died in 2000.

    Rough week. Caught the flu and a sinus infection. I must be cursed.:( That combo gave me a headache that was worse than any hangover I have ever had. And I've had a few rough ones thaks to my friends Jose & Telly. Though I never had a sinus-infection before. I have come to the conclusion that they are quite "suckie"....

    Good to hear Sil.

    BoV,
    sinus infection here as well, bacteria. Probably inevitable after carnival. Had fever yesterday, but so far am better today. What surprises me is that it progresses from stage to stage so quickly. I went from sore throat, to clogged sinuses to a beginning cough in two days. If it goes on like that it may just be over soon. I won't complain.
