I lost my dad 2-1/...You hit this right on the mark. I lost my dad 2-1/2 years ago. Everything you said, especially about the inner cheerleader, and not wanting to be a downer to others is true.<br />Little weird word of advice, let yourself cry whenever you need to. It's perfectly okay and pretty necessary. (I'm just now figuring this out - 2 years later).<br />Hugs to you and your mom.<br />Tiffany (the old French teacher who talked your and your mom's ear off at Costco)thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03203822267435171678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397094579617332695.post-69138302006972941142012-12-21T10:11:25.134-08:002012-12-21T10:11:25.134-08:00Michelle, My aunt Ruth, is friends with your Mom ...Michelle, My aunt Ruth, is friends with your Mom and sent this to me this morning. You are so right to share this with all who read your blog. Our 17 year old son passed away 19 months ago this week and while we get by and go forward (not move on) we cry. I love they you are sharing with people how to help they know who are grieving! <br /><br />One of the biggest barriers to grief is our culture, they think people "should be over it", "moving on" or "just getting on with life". I have given myself permission to cry on the sad days, they just happen and I am glad you shared this with your audience.<br /><br />I will be sending you good thoughts and prayers over the next few weeks as I know you will be missing your dad extra those days!Deanna Santanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12152181200191703824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397094579617332695.post-83430827070393533922012-12-20T22:48:09.938-08:002012-12-20T22:48:09.938-08:00I love you and not a day goes by that I'm not ...I love you and not a day goes by that I'm not thinking about each of you.
