Receive Text UpdatesAfter being through such a traumatic loss at my age, everything you thought was important in life really comes into perspective. It's now time to take care of me, to do what I need to do for me without worrying how it will affect other people. To try and live life to the fullest after such a devastating loss. I believe he would want that for me.
How do you stay fabulous?Working on myself, going to therapy to come to terms with my new reality. Starting my own bookkeeping business and working for me. Not giving a damn what other people think. Trying to eat healthy and take care of myself. Smiling even when all seems lost, so I can be that light for others in their darkest hour. Trying to be there for my daughter, letting her know she can do anything she wants to in this life, no matter the circumstances, not to give up.
What would you do with the $40,000?After this loss, my finances have skyrocketed so it would be really helpful to have extra money to help with the ongoing bills that come to light after such a loss. Also, to be able to travel to where he wanted his ashes spread so I can honour his final wishes.
