I am frozen yet going forward. That is the life of a widow with a child. She does not let me stop and I do not want to.
I am thinking of my niece Natasha who recently lost her husband (42 yrs old) with 6 kids. How will she cope? I remember taking a trip with her parents across country and trying to make her hike with me. Natasha was a kid maybe 6 or 7 and I wanted to hike for hours- there was lots of crying and we did some hiking for a bit. Natasha has a lot of grit for parenting, going to school and living with dibieties. Which I admire and aspire to as I now share that disease. Life is a crazy circle
My heart breaks for both you and Natasha. I don't know how I would cope with what either of you has had to carry. The synchronicities between your experiences are startling, though, and I'm sure you'll be supports to one another.
