You are "fucking brilliant", Rach: "The ability to say “no” or stop; the willingness to slow down; intelligence to read the landscape; being silent for long enough to hear the signals; doing the next best thing, even if it’s difficult or unpopular."... this all feels like impossible-to-achieve wisdom. But you're doing it. Love the description of Mark-energy on the mountain, too xx
I don't really know how you did it but you did. To find comfort and beauty in that "first" takes bravery and focus. I love this post and bravo to your friends who asked you - "do you want to come skiing?"
Rachel I was totally absorbed in this piece of writing. Mark being an excellent skier especially and watching that video on his death bed was truly amazing & you couldn’t have shared that moment any better. You are brave & strong he has made you that way what a truly wonderful husband & dad love Heather xxx
Watching all your kids not only embrace, but also fall totally in love with skiing this week, was one of the most wonderful experiences... Mark lived through each of them this week. Xxxx

Really beautifully written piece expressing so eloquently the experience of the last few weeks. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
Thank you for your response. Yes the emotional-physical-spatial connection can be profoundly restorative, although easily overlooked
