“People don't realize quite how horrible resuscitation is - undignified, brutal and with a fairly woeful success rate.

When discussing Do Not Resuscitate orders, relatives often want everything to be done without really knowing what that means. Really, the form should say, 'If your mother's heart stops, would you like us to break all her ribs and electrocute her?"

“The undiluted selflessness of someone fully aware what her absence will do to those she leaves behind.”



“On the way home I phone my mum to tell her I love her.”


🥺🥺🥺

“The other thing I realize is that none of her many, many concerns are about herself; it’s all about the kids, her husband, her sister, her friends. Maybe that’s the definition of a good person.”

“It suddenly strikes me that I’m almost certainly the first person she’s opened up to about all this, the only one she’s been totally honest with. It’s a strange privilege, an honour I didn’t ask for.”

Hahahaha you scared him!!!

“Age twenty-five was the first point I actually got to make an active decision in the Choose Your Own Adventure book of my life. I not only had to learn how to make a decision, but also ensure I made the right one.”

“Above all, it’s about being professional and kind.”

“Bleeding always stops eventually, and this was for the saddest reason.”

“I read this article that said if you believe in soulmates, you’re less likely to be happy, you’re more likely to get divorced.”

“Seriously though, why would anyone get married in this day and age?

Because it's the biggest commitment you can make to one another. It's a declaration to the world that this is your person, the one you love, body and soul. It's saying that no matter what life throws at you both, you are going to be there, holding each other's hand every step of the way.“

“Audrey felt stuck. Everyone else was going places, and she was going nowhere.”


HUHUHUHU FEELS

“Some days she loved the variety of her life – she was in no rush to be settled and didn’t feel the need to commit to any one thing. But on other days she felt as though everyone else was on this life train that she’d forgotten to buy a ticket for.”



FEELS. EXACTLY. THE. SAME.

“Sometimes life feels like a hamster wheel. You get caught up in the practicalities of existence and all the joy gets pushed aside in favour of necessity. Sometimes you just need to jump off the wheel.”

“I don’t want to wake up in fifty years with any regrets. I think as soon as you stop wanting to learn, explore, change things, that’s when you get old.”

“… the people who really love you won’t stop just because you get old.”

“… there was one thing Audrey had promised herself from a young age, it was that when it came to love, she would not be anything like her mother.”

My daddy may be a good father, but he isn’t a good husband.

“Committing to someone for the rest of her life was a huge step. Promising not to screw up, forever, was undeniably daunting.”

“Fake it until you make it.”

“Whatever had happened in the past needed to stay in the past – weddings were about the future.”

“But as someone who’s been married twice, I do have a little wisdom to impart.

Marriage is a partnership, someone to share life’s challenges and celebrations with.

Someone who will love you on the boring days as well as the interesting ones.”

“You’re still young. You can do anything you set your mind to…”
