<p>We sheparded our babies, teaching them, protecting them. We corrected them and guided them. We bathed, and tucked them in, kissed them goodnight and sang them to sleep. </p>
<p>Now too few years later, I protect, correct, bath and tuck in, kiss and sing my husband to sleep each night. </p>
<p>It is darn unfair that I was looking for college placement for our daughters at the same time I was searching for a nursing facilty placement for him!!</p>
<p>I’m sorry, sistersunnie. What a position to be in - I hope you’re ok?</p>
<p>Helps put things in perspective.</p>
<p>((hugs)) Not fair.</p>
<p>sistersunnie, I am so sorry. This is incredibly unfair.</p>
<p>I hope you have a good IRL support system, sistersunnie. You have us. Hugs.</p>
<p>How terribly sad, sistersunnie. Thoughts and prayers are with you.</p>
<p>So sorry to hear of your family’s plight, sistersunnie. Would it help to share what is going on with us?</p>
<p>Another distant hug and shoulder to lean on here.</p>
<p>I do not envy you.</p>
<p>Peace to you in this unsettled time.</p>
<p>Sistersunnie, I don’t even know what to say…such a sad & unexpected twist.</p>
<p>God bless you for your devotion to your husband. Please take time to give yourself some TLC, as well.</p>
<p>Sister sunnie, best wishes, good vibes, prayers and what have you from the other side of the world. </p>
<p>Just a reminder that some of us are awake when everyone in your time zone is asleep, if you need some virtual social interaction at midnight . During some difficult times last year, I sent out a note to the CC community in the middle of the night (our time), and got responses from the states right away. It was very comforting.</p>
