Death and grief spares no one. When we grieve, our thoughts and emotions are heightened and people who care about us--those who are around us-- are often unsure how to be helpful. They do not know what to say or do.
There is no right way to grieve or mourn. And we are very lucky to have people around us who respect our privacy, our need for time alone and recognize our need to grieve at our own pace.
When the time was right, they were there to keep us company. Unselfishly giving us the gift of time. Their time.
Walking, talking, sharing. Helping us remember, however painful it may be sometimes. Listening to our stories over and over to help us process our grief. Being sensitive to our needs and having the patience at the same time.
To all of you...thank you for helping us get through this and helping us get our lives back together. Some days will simply be better than others and we hope that one day the good days will outnumber the bad days.
Thank you for being there for us.
