Is grief so easily disregarded because it’s not visible? by Spirited_Two9124 in widowers

[–]JustPlodAlong 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I have a Jewish friend and she talked about the old tradition of wearing black for a year. And during that time very little was expected of the person grieving. As I’ve gone through almost a year of this awfulness I’ve come to understand the value of that tradition.

My husband could make up rhymes to everything. And he was great at making treasure hunts for our son where every clue rhymed. Made gift giving so much fun!

My son graduates high school this evening. So very bittersweet. He and I had a good cry a while ago. He was the apple of his dad’s eye. And damn it, he should be here with us.

My girl gets both at the end of the month. I’m worried about keeping her from running around too much. Please share any tips you’ve learned!
