So aptly put. There is no magic marker for the end of grieving, it doesn't come. The grieving transforms and is different for everyone.
My younger sister died December 15, 1986 from a long battle with breast cancer. She was only 34. Of course, we were all devastated and emotionally exhausted.
The one thing I've noticed is that it seems since her death, each loss I've had has been amplified.
It's true. It's like the grief comes in waves. Sometimes large, sometimes small ripples. The hardest grieving in the beginning DOES diminish.
Therapy with a great counselor helped as well.
My sympathy to both you ((Shattered)) and you ((Steash)).
