Just heard of a close relative who today has een given 3 months to live. I want to write to her and just done know what to say. Can anyone help e please?
"I have just heard your dreadful news and I am ever so sorry. All I can say is that I am here if you need any help, a listening ear, a cup of tea, wine, whatever. If, between us all, family and friends, we can make you happier, realise some dreams for you, and even see if we can all push back that final barrier together, then we will have achieved ever so much and shared our love with you."
What a lovely message, DTC. Before I read it, I thought for a while what could be said and just couldn't form any words that didn't sound false. That wee message is perfect.
