Nikki I think you are wise to take a break..you need to nurture yourself as only you can.
I have not directed by neighbor here because like you, it's too early in her grief to benefit from words, words, and more words. When you are suffering as you are.. you just want your heart to stop aching.
Please remember how very much you are loved by all of us. I'm going to pm you my email address so you can reach out if you want to...no pressure from me to do that.
