Great post about Cathy!
Actually, it made me even sadder ;(
But I loved the part about being in the present.
{ “I carried so much guilt and shame. I started engaging in the “What If” game.}
I’ve been doing that! Plus been feeling guilty about all the times I Didn’t play with her, do things for her, when I was taking the time for other things, wheh just 5 mintues of playing with a string would’ve meant so much to her!
So, if I’ve learned anything - it is to be in the moment with the others. Give them my time and attention, in between all the things I need to do. With 4 cats and a dog, it’s hard but I will do better!
