Maybe we all do go through losses like his death alone
on some level.
For me the supportive presence
of my neighbors,, my family and my friends allowed me to begin to stitch
together a new framework for being that was different because Andrew had
died.
I did not really understand that
he was dead and physically gone forever. I do not think I understand that now.
In some way he is just away. My sister Kathy died last August and I feel the
same about her.
I was explaining this way of being with death to Marnie and she
told me it was the same with her. She added that she felt it was her way of protecting
herself from losses that were just too big. It was as if she was describing me
exactly.
