Where do you find your energy?

Funny after going 3 nights without sleep or at least only cat naps by Nana’s bed…I still feel Ok. Yet if I only get 6 hrs on a ‘normal’ day I feel tired…when you are with someone so ill, so tired then this energy comes from nowhere. I suppose that it is not then a shock that your body needs time to recover through the grieving process.
The hospital offered us a room. Mum grabbed a few hours each night in there but when you are here, you just want to hold them and let them know they are not alone. The irony is that they are looking after themselves better than you are…
I wonder where that energy comes from, I wonder what store we have in our bodies that is only opened at traumatic events…I wonder how deep that store truly is?
Maybe it is that store that empties as you sit with them that then needs to refill over the coming weeks and months before it can be used again to draw on for that energy that helps you find life again….the emphasis must be on us understanding the need to refill it with positive energy.
Love to you all…..I am thinking of all of you today and drawing all the advice YOU have given me over the weeks and months.
