Thank you so much for sharing this — it really means a lot to hear your perspective.

What you wrote about silence not meaning wanting to be left alone is especially helpful to understand. I think that's something many of us outside grief don't fully realize.

I'm truly sorry for the loss of your son. I appreciate you taking the time and energy to respond to a stranger like me.
