Yea, and it comes in such waves, when you least expect it, and sometimes the
numbness is so thick that nothing makes any sense.

Hi all,

Yes, it is difficult to lose a parent.  My mother said, after my
grandfather died that it was as if the earth trembled for her.   Having
lost both parents, I know  about grieving firsthand.

<sigh>  One of the things I have found is that this particular society
is unmindful of the needs of those who grieve.  we used to be, but
aren't any longer.

Used to be one would wear black for a year to signify that you were in
in mourning.  This gave you license for behavior which wouldn't be
condoned under other circumstances.

Maithe, if you're reading this, don't be surprised at anything that may
happen to you in the next few weeks and months.  My short term memory
went to Hell in a handbasket when my dad died.  I couldn't remember
what people said to me five minutes ago.  And the weirdest things can
set you off, either to weep or to be angry.  Grief is a very private
and personal thing, and it affects each person differently depending on
the person grieving and for whom they grieve.

Blessings,
Ann P.
