I always feel like I do not know what to say at all. And then sometimes when I do try to say something, I feel like it was a stupid thing to say later on. These are some great ideas of things to do to help make me feel more comfortable in reaching out to anyone who is dealing with any kind of hardship. <br />Thanks for this post. It had to have taken a long time to get it posted. Hope you are feeling well today. :)christy rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04576305610780918375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569835147435872226.post-51257979197565697772010-02-12T19:59:48.834-05:002010-02-12T19:59:48.834-05:00great post!

A friend and I were on a road trip up the west coast and we passed that tree out in the middle of nowhere...with all it's shoes! There were too many pairs to count. Again, thanks for dropping by and for the comment love, SITSta. It is nice to "meet" you. Wishing you all the best.<br /><br />Kindest regards,<br />BrookMatt5verse6https://www.blogger.com/profile/05839719515965181650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569835147435872226.post-35920214580056554492010-02-12T13:31:55.891-05:002010-02-12T13:31:55.891-05:00This is beautiful.

We all brought meals on her rough days. It was so helpful for her. I always bring meals in disposable dishes...much easier for the friend. Great advice Teresa! xoxoTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16230913715239504937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569835147435872226.post-59602339667196115682010-02-11T20:43:36.935-05:002010-02-11T20:43:36.935-05:00I hope that you are having a good day today!

I think lots of people have problems to deals with other people's illness and conditions.<br /><br />My best friend was terminally ill and she's no longer with us, but I am proud to say that she had a group of 5 caring and loving friends. We were by her side till the last second of her life.We asked questions, we listened, we joked around, we cried,we cooked, we cleaned, we redecorated her bedroom to make her feel special. We all would do it for rest of our lives if we had to just to have her with us.Bibi @ Bibi's Culinary Journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13654717185386201959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569835147435872226.post-46742061160270103712010-02-11T16:23:01.846-05:002010-02-11T16:23:01.846-05:00Great list.

I truly mean it, but realize it is too vague. When some says that to me, my general answer is "I'm fine" even if I'm not.<br /><br />When I help with meals. I ALWAYS put things in disposable containers. It's much less of a headache for the recipient to figure out which bowl goes to which person AND get it back to them. <br /><br />These are fabulous ideas. Perfect for use on anyone, not necissarily someone with a chronic illness, but anyone who might need to be lifted up.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05904475961832992495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569835147435872226.post-4385120388874870002010-02-11T15:37:54.108-05:002010-02-11T15:37:54.108-05:00all fab ideas...i like them way better than "...all fab ideas...i like them way better than "let me know if you need help". there's real action here! sending a big fat hello from SITS today!Danyele Easterhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15645625553845575954noreply@blogger.com
