You guys are so great! You know exactly how I am feeling and it is nice to know I am not alone. I just had a feeling I would find some comfort in bringing up this issue with you all! It is so nice to talk to someone that knows and has experienced the same thing, who does not think you are going a bit overboard. It is sometimes hard to share these intimate feelings with family and friends. They are compassionate, but at the same time I know it makes them feel uncomfortable because they feel so helpless. And I do not want to be a "Debbie Downer," Everyone is different with their feelings. I have a friend that lost her husband and got rid of all his clothing within weeks. Me, I have not yet touched my husband's closet. I am just not ready to let him go.
All of you thank you for sharing your kindness with me. It really does make a difference connecting with those that are experiencing the same loss. |
