		<description><![CDATA[I just don&#039;t think there is much room for being excellent at anything when you are waist deep in grief. Just moving is an effort. I think it is better to give in to it and just try and find your core again, get it straight and in some new form of strength and composure and then move forward when you are ready.

You don&#039;t really get compassionate days to be home being a great mum, you get them because of the extreme requirement there is for unlimited sobbing. And it&#039;s better to just do it, as you know it is. I know i&#039;m only telling you what you know.

Lots of hugs Helen; you haven&#039;t expected any of the rest of us to be perfect mums when we were beside ourselves with sadness and and we don&#039;t expect it of you - nor will your kids. You&#039;re doing a hell of a lot better than i did - you&#039;ve still had people in your house and done things for people and taught us all science. I just abandoned everything..

More hugs, with a gentle salute :)]]></description>
