    I took your hospice journey twice. My mom was 40 when I was born and 89 when she passed. Two years later I journeyed with my 84 year old mother-in-law. I would do both a million times over. What you learn during these times is priceless. About yourself, relatives, and your adored ones. I'm so sorry for your loss. We are now sorrowful orphans. May all of you find peace!

    Good morning, Diane. I am sorry for the loss of your mom. My daughter died April 22 from injuries sustained in a car accident. She was 38 and the mom to 4. She is my second child. My routines that learned from FlyLady kept me from spiraling into depression. I didn't have to think, I was just on auto pilot. A lot of people think it's silly to have routines but when the storms in life come, they are like a life preserver. I am praying for peace and comfort for you and your family! Have a lovely day! ~Angel

I had always been afraid of death, but I was so comforted to be there, though I still miss them, as you will your parents. God bless you and the work you do for us. You've certainly made a difference in my life.

You helped me so much those first few years afterwards and still even now. You helped get me back on my feet on days when I thought it wasnt possible.

I am a Professional Organizer and my Mom was my first client, encouraging me to get my business going when she was dying from cancer back in 2007. Self care is super important, you're right. I did regular massages and walks in the forest, time by myself to regroup. We were able to work through her possessions as she got weaker and weaker and it gave me a new perspective on how we value our things. Take good care and may your Mom rest in peace. I look forward to watching your downsizing journey.

Remember self-care is also being with yourself and allowing for the deep cry. Over and over. Grief is the receipt after loving someone so deeply. In those deep moments if you allow it, you'll realize they're still here with you and the love is just greater. My heart goes out to you, it's not easy at all. My prayers to you and your family.

    Grief is a sharp stone you forever carry in your pocket. The edges may eventually soften, and you you will get stronger so the stone's weight won't weigh on you so much, but you will forever carry it with you as you remember your lost person. So sorry for the loss of your mother and wishing you peace and strength as you move forward in your grieving.❤

    I am so sorry for your pain and loss. I see how it affects you.
    💜💜💜💜💜💜
    My sister became very ill right after Christmas and she passed in February. I was totally unprepared for the process of decline, especially cognitive decline. And I was not prepared for the physical, mental and emotional stress of the formal wake and funeral process; and I was not prepared to allow myself to experience the deep depression from loss and how the structure of the whole family is shifting due to the loss of my sister as the matriarchal head of the family. I feel cast adrift.
    I appreciate that there is so much more involved than just decluttering stuff. You mentioned a few areas in your video and I am glad to hear you will address some in future videos. Please take your time and only dive into difficult areas when you are fully ready. I will be ready to listen whenever you are ready to share. We have plenty of time. No pressure. The time will be right when the time is right and not before.
    Glad to hear that your self care habits are kicking in to keep you going. Go you.
    Also glad to hear you had a nice time in South Korea. Your ability to go with the flow of your flight delay reminded me how equipped you are to deal with all sorts of unexpected bumps in the road. And the loss of your Mum is a big bump in the road. Your ability to adjust and move forward is impressive.
    I feel like I have not coped as well here even though it is what it is and no one is judging me. I also feel ready to get back on track with routines and systems. I feel like I am slowly climbing out of a deep, dark hole. I feel more intense "I don't want to" days now than any other time in my life. I am very interested in your coping methods. I also hope that you gain comfort and peace in your mourning and recovery process. Sending you virtual hugs...

    Chère Diane, je me permets de vous écrire en français car mon anglais n’est pas excellent et je m’en voudrais de faire trop de fautes dans pareilles circonstances. Je vous suis depuis de nombreuses années et vous m’avez permis à travers toute votre bienveillance de progresser dans ma vie quotidienne. Je suis très triste d’apprendre que votre maman est partie, je comprend d’autant mieux votre désarroi et chagrin que j’ai moi aussi une maman de 99 ans et que je crains jour après jour de perdre. J’ai lu un jour que lorsque l’on perdait le dernier parent en vie, on perdait ce «statut »d’enfant .... ceci n’est pas anodin 😢. On est à son tour le parent de quelqu’un d’autre et ce niveau est important car avant nous , il n’y a plus personne.
    Les mots sont vide de sens en pareil situation mais je tenais à vous présenter mes plus sincères condoléances et vous souhaiter beaucoup de courage pour traverser ce moment si difficile . Je vous embrasse, Yasmina 🇧🇪

    Thank you for this video. I understand things are tough and I am sorry about the loss of your mum. I do appreciate and look forward to what we will see later from you. I have cleared out my parents home and then more recently my mom's apartment when she could no longer live on her own anymore. It gives you a new perspective on things.❤
