The healing process remains in progress—some days are better than others. It’s taking longer than planned and requires additional work to navigate the changes, but it’s also necessary.

I have not had the very same loss as you, but I have experienced profound loss at several different times in my 71 yrs. Most recent was last November. My best friend came over just to sit with me for as long as I needed the day. Day turned to night and the loss I was feeling was just deeply deeply painful. I then reached out to my priest and we talked and she reminded me that “where there is deep love , there is deep grief.”

Grief left me feeling disoriented, depressed but could function and Spacey in my thinking. The disorienting part was what disturbed me most.. I am getting stronger mentally and continue to try everyday to find Gratitude 🙏 I think we have to learn how to adapt, reboot and just keep trying. I’m single and no family left. I have some longtime friends and work part time on a horse farm. I will keep reading you and wish you well and above of peace.
