I remember at Bob's funeral a friend handed me a gift, which I didn't open til a week later. My daughter and I were in my car and she noticed the bag. I opened it and said, "Oh that was so nice of ____she always makes afghans for the wi wi, I couldn't the word out of my mouth. I just threw it in the back seat. Not because I was ungrateful, I just hadn't even thought of myself in that way. Wasn't ready to deal with that reality yet. But here I am and I'm so glad I stumbled on this site. At times I isolate myself and then I start thinking that I going crazy. That my cituation is so unique and no one else understands. I know thats a lie from the pit of hell. Reading thru some of the posts here, I realize that I'm not alone and I am pretty much right where others are in this walk.
