im also crying for you–and you dont really know me either—i just feel so sad for what you are going through–the above letter says it all –you have a beautiful child who will continue to be a joy and comfort for you—-and know that we—your “fans” love you too–

Hey there, Sarah.

1- Go ahead & make that cake. And everything else that you enjoy. Because you count. And just because you aren’t married anymore & just because you aren’t the hostess with the “perfect” life, doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy a Yom Tov meal. Without him. So prepare for YOU!
2- I know your pain. We may not have the exact stories. But at the end of the day, we’re in the same boat. Time helps heal. I’m lying if I say that I don’t feel crummy at times or that I don’t cry or feel like this situation is “sucky”. But then there are plenty of bright, happy, wonderful moments. And I try to hang onto those….
3- Cry all you want! You’ve earned it! Unload to close friends who are willing to listen. Now is your time to be a taker — to gain support, a kind word, help when you may need it, etc.
4- Email me. I want to share info with you that isn’t meant for this forum.
5- Hug & embrace your Tunie as much as you can. Don’t feel guilty if she spots you being sad or crying. But overall, try to keep it happy around her. And bask in the love she shares with you.

I hope that by next Shavous you will be hosting again, with friends and family and maybe new people in your life. Cry as much as you need to, but don’t eat the cake It won’t make you feel better tomorrow

You can do this, you know you can! Tunie needs you to.

Thank you for sharing. I am so sorry for your sadness. Please know a stranger in Arkansas is thinking of you and will be sending good energy your way. Thank you for your honesty and I hope things get easier for you soon.

My heart is crying with you. I wish so much I could give you some sort of chizuk that would make this all better, but right now, there really isn’t any. I know that one day, though, you will be in a better place; and I know this as much as I know that the weather is lovely outside (I’m in Milwaukee…the weather may not be so nice by you), and as much as I know that your darling baby loves you, and that Hashem loves you. So, maybe you can take comfort in knowing that a stranger is crying for you, and cares.
