This grief thing is hell. There is no way to put it. I am terribly sorry for your loss punkinpie. My grief therapist reminds me that the first year we are usually in shock. The second year and thereafter we are often feeling some tough feelings. It is important to monitor who you allow yourself to be around. I lost a friend i had known for 40 years because she would not "allow" me to mourn my son.

I do appreciate your post above. You express many of the ambivalent feelings that go with losing a loved one when you said, "I adored her and NEVER wanted her to leave me. I knew at the end, it was the best thing."

Thank you for articulating this part of the grief process!

Teresa
