The Mary Mac Show | Remembering Mrs. Riley

Leave a comment

In Episode 167, we remember Mrs. Joan Riley, the mother of my best friend who always made me feel so welcomed in her home and who showed me such compassion and love.

Mrs. Riley was the mother every child should have had. She was compassionate, caring, always smiling and kind.

In this episode, I share my remembrances of first knowing her when I was attending seventh grade in a new school on Long Island, New York.

Her first child, her daughter, Debbie befriended me and later invited me to her home.

I only learned of Mrs. Riley’s death earlier in the week and when I realized her birthday was today, I wanted so much to honor her by creating an episode for her.

To learn more about this amazing lady and her wonderful family, go here to read her obituary.

Blessings to her entire family, especially her husband, Mr. Ronald Riley, who is a magnificent person as well.

And to her children, grandchildren and great-grandchild, David and I send our love to you always.

She will be missed and always remembered with love!

xoxo

The Mary Mac Show | The Silence is Deafening

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

In Episode 166, we speak about the deafening silence we come home to after our loved one has died and ways to cope and flourish while living alone.

One of the most difficult parts of the grieving process is when a loved one dies and it leaves your home empty. You are now the only inhabitant. And you never thought you’d have the additional burden of reassessing how you are going to live day to day.

Death can leave you lonely but it can also cause you to be alone.

And in this episode we look at the nuances of being alone while grieving your loved one’s death and how to determine what would be best for you as you build a new life. One, perhaps you didn’t want to deal with at this stage of life.

Life can hand us many twists and turns and after a loved one’s death so much needs to be dealt with.

Listen in to Episode 166 to learn coping and practical skills to help you along this new road.

Bless you, my warrior.
xoxo

The Mary Mac Show | Gift of Homeopathy with Dana Ullman, MPH, CCH

Leave a comment

In Episode 165, we are honored to spend time with Dana Ullman, the renowned homeopathic expert, who teaches us how remedies help those grieving a loved one’s death.

Homeopathy is practiced worldwide by millions of people including royalty (Queen Elizabeth II), heads of state, presidents, religious leaders, sports superstars, corporate leaders, philanthropists (Mother Teresa), musicians, actors, women rights leaders, actors, even Russian Czars.

Years ago we had homeopathic hospitals in the United States and many used their remedies before reaching out to pharmaceuticals to help their ailments.

As allopathic drugs tend to suppress the issue, homeopathic remedies look to get to the root cause and cure it.

Homeopathic doctors and practitioners seek to dig deep and look for just the right remedy to help with a person’s emotional, physical and mental issues all at the same time.

If you are struggling with something that traditional doctors cannot help with, or if you want to live a healthier lifestyle, please connect with Dana Ullman in the contact area of his website.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

The Mary Mac Show | Trial By Fire

Leave a comment

Since a large listening audience of The Mary Mac Show is from India, this story is one I want you to know about.

This week I learned about the horrific tragedy of the Krishnamoorthy family who endured the deaths of their 17 year-old daughter and 13 year-old son in a cinema fire in Delhi, India on June 13, 1997.

On that day, their children innocently went to catch a movie but they never returned home.

A raging fire broke out in the theatre and took the lives of 59 individuals and injured an additional 103.

And after 25 years, there has been no justice served on the two men, the Ansals who are real estate magnets there, and carry a great amount of weight in the community.

The reason this hits home for me is because not only did these parents, Neelam and her husband, Shekhar work tirelessly to find answers, gather the other families who also had family members die in the theatre, and push for justice, is because our family went through a similar fate.

Angela was 11 years old when she was murdered and it took us on an 18 year journey to solve her murder, and another two years to go to trial and convict him.

Along the way Shekhar wrote the story of their struggles and Penguin books published it.

Last week, Netflix released a 7 episode series on their long and painful journey as bereaved parents and what they did to find justice.

I welcome all my listeners to The Mary Mac Show and readers of my blog, to watch this series on Netflix and support it by giving it a thumbs-up as well as let others know of its existence.

It is deep, impactful and sad.

I can feel their feelings and found myself crying along the way.

We lived this in our own unique way.

One quarter century to seek justice for their two children.

Listen in to Episode 164 – my way of honoring this family and remembering those who died that day.

Bless them.

In Episode 163, we continue to discuss how simplifying our surroundings and the way we live our life can lead to a calmer everyday existence while we are working through our grieving process.

So often when we are grieving a special individual in our lives, we don’t take the time to consider how we can simplify things so we don’t feel so overwhelmed.

In this episode we look at additional ways to decrease our tasks and pressure. It helps us to think through this process and minimize our lifestyle so we release additional challenges that are not needed.
