[@vickenator]

Thank you for such a fascinating Q&A! And wow... I had no idea (nor should I have known, of course) that you were dealing with your mother's illness for twenty years. That is incredibly difficult and traumatic, especially considering you were honoring her privacy and not talking widely about it. It makes complete sense that you would have waves of grief coming at the most unexpected times. In a way you may have been subconsciously anticipating this grief for twenty years... that takes a huge toll. I am glad you have such a strong support structure in your family to help you through this. Thank you for sharing how you are doing now. I'm sorry that troll made what was an unbelievably difficult time even worse with her bizarre insensitive and mean comments.

Malinda you have such a beautiful heart. I lost my mom at a young as of 18.she too had cancer. And it was the hardest thing to see my mom suffer. As you said I would give anything and everything to make her better. It’s been 20 yrs now that I lost her but it still feels like it was yesterday. I still cry I still think about her and I still mourn. The pain and memories will always be there but it just gets easier . Thank you for being such a beautiful person. And never apologize for your feelings. Much love and please think of those happy moments with mom . Think and praying for your heart to heal.

@@LuxPurselove Thank you for your kind words . I agree we never stop missing them. But what is comforting is knowing they are know longer in pain. As you said your mom suffered so much as did my mom. Just to know now they know longer have to suffer give me such joy. The best part is that we have our very own Angels who look after us all the time. Malinda praying for your heart to heal and for your mom’s beautiful memories to live on. It’s ok to be sad and it’s ok not to have a good day. Grief comes in waves and when you least expect it . And that’s ok. Just be you and never change.keep your heart pure. Don’t allow others ever change that . Don’t worry about trolls and what they say.

I’m always here if you need to talk. Much love

Thank you so much. I would never wish anyone to suffer that way and I know you wouldn't either. That is a fabulous attitude to pray for the trolls.

Enjoy watching your videos Melinda! Regarding video editing software, your daughter is right about iMovie. As an ex-TV producer and video editor, I believe iMovie suits the needs for most KZbinrs. While I have an Adobe suite subscription, it's only worth it if you're using all of the programs including Photoshop and After Effects. I dabble in After Effects, but it's not a very beginner-friendly program. Anyone just wanting to do basic cuts and add simple graphics and music should utilize free software like iMovie or DaVinci Resolve.

Are you interested in purchasing one of the Fendi Baguette sequined bags?

[@LuxPurselove]

No, I am probably the only person that does not like those. I have no clue where I would carry a sequin bag to except prom and I am too old for prom lol.

Yes I feel this ❤ we raised 6 children and still have 2 at home a senior and a Freshman in HS plus the oldest had some issues and came back … but still were spending so much less on things school and kid related . My 15 yr old is expansive don’t get me wrong , she is the youngest and 🤨, but 6 kids Vs 2 lol it’s a whole new life . I can only imagine an empty nest and how bittersweet

[@LuxPurselove]

I bet your house is so much fun at the holidays! The empty nest is very bittersweet, yes we have more to spend but I loved being a SAHM more than anything! Enjoy those last 2, the time will fly as you know! :)

Next time you go to Paris, stay at the Park Hyatt Vendome that is my favorite place to stay!! I love to see my bags when I walk in my closet so I do not keep them in their dust bags😍😍😍😍

[@LuxPurselove]

I will check that hotel out, thanks for the tip!

What do you use on your nails? They are beautiful!

[@LuxPurselove]

Thank you! I use Dazzle Dry, it is like a gel and dries in 5 min, but makes your nails healthy and comes off easy with a cotton ball and acetone.

I have the same colour hair as you, at 55 I don’t colour it either. I wondered if you noticed that as you got older your hair got darker red? Instead of going grey my hair is the darkest red it’s ever been. When I was younger it was more of a strawberry blonde.

[@LuxPurselove]

Mine seems to be getting lighter. Did you know redheads are the last to lose pigment in our hair and it turns white not grey? Lots of interesting redhead facts! :)

[@HandbagDiva]

@@LuxPurselove I love white hair and if we want we can put some dark grey highlights in it. I knew there were perks to being a red-head! 😊

[@LuxPurselove]

That is a perk ! The bad part is if you ever need a dental filling we need more anesthesia!

[@marieleemcgill5011]

It makes me cry, literally cry how these people are and how mean they can be. You are a loving wonderful person. Don’t let these people and is their ugly negative. They don’t understand. They have something missing in their life, and I know words hurt because they do hurt me too ,but there’s a lot of us out here that love you and know how caring and wonderful you are and I’m so glad you’re on KZbin and you’re staying, praying.

[@LuxPurselove]

Awe thank you so very much. You are so sweet. I agree there must be something missing to be so cruel to a stranger. Xoxo

[@jeanettenfreeland1408]

[@LuxPurselove]

Yes I have a lot. I love Coach, Kate Spade, Marc Jacobs, Aspinal of London, Longchamp the list goes on! :)

Thank you Melinda! This was a great video. I am going to be traveling to Paris for the first time in March. I was wondering if you wear you wedding/engagement rings when you travel?

[@LuxPurselove]

Thank you! Yes I always wear them traveling.

[@rosem9666]

When you said you’d give anything to have your mum back I cried. That’s how I feel about my mum and have said that more times than I can count. I love your videos. You are lovely and seem genuinely nice. People don’t know what’s going on the inside so it baffles me when they are nasty just because. Please continue your videos, the genuine followers do enjoy them x

[@LuxPurselove]

Thank you so much. I am so sorry for your loss. Xoxo
