Weekly Wrap Up | 10/02/22

Aloha friends!

Last week was a hard week for me. My daughter was at the tail end of her flu when my son then got sick AGAIN but this time with a super sore throat that was not flu, strep or covid…I think it was laryngitis. So he was home with me for 3 days. But to top that off I had the worst muscle knot in my neck/shoulder/back….and to top THAT off, my neighbor told me the ambulance we saw last Saturday night was because her husband passed away. The husband that cut the grass 3x a week and I would say hi to him almost daily…really nice guy who was enjoying his retirement. I just saw him last month but he was limping and I was caring for a sick household so I was inside a lot. I had no idea he was sick, though now that I think back 3 months ago he told me he was hard of hearing (that was new) and I saw him limping last month. His wife told me they found out he had glioblastoma brain cancer and they only found out this summer. He was deteriorating so fast and had no clue why until his wife insisted on an MRI. And like that…in a few months without me even knowing he was that ill…he’s gone. 💔🥺

The pain in my shoulder, my son getting sick and the news of my neighbor happened on Monday (pain in my heart). I was done for the week. So I was sad and am still sad every time I look at their house and imagine what they are going through.

I hope my kids get this week to heal their bodies from illnesses going around I know it’s that time of the year but we need a break. I need a break!

Anyway, I hope all of you had a better week than I did! I did manage to read some books at least!

  1. So sorry to hear about your neighbor! You were already having a rough month. It’s hard to keep up with anything else, too, when your kiddos are sick. Hope October is better to y’all.

  2. I’m so sorry to hear about your neighbour. It’s so sad when illness takes someone away so suddenly—it’s always so jarring, especially when you have some kind of interaction with them. I hope you and your kids have a better week ahead, Yolanda! 💜
