Mist...*grin. The most important thing you can do for your friend is listen to her...listen with your heart which I know you do so well. I am amazed at how quickly people tire of the grief we survivors feel. Let her tell you over and over. "It" just spills out of my dear neighbor because her close friends have heard it once and think she should be getting over it. Her son killed himself in March...hardly time to be over it.

And Doody, no I don't want to run that group....I want to help run it. The Moderator should have a degree in Grief counseling IMHO...my only experience is as a survivor.

But I do thank you both. *grin

Now I have to go cut the grass...I can hear it growing!!
