JohnT- The yoyo stage. Great metaphor. You really have a knack for giving us a good visceral explanation of what is going on for you. I think it is a good thing. I don't think it is good you have to feel this way but being able to explain it, I think the rest of us can easily relate and I think that helps.
I am a great one to want to analyze why I am feeling the way I do. I'm not sure it is beneficial if I overdo it but I think I need to try and beat down a bit of a path in my intellectual brain to help my emotional self find some footing. It has been a journey from hell and I think we all want relief from this pain and no matter the amount of discussion it remains the same. The universe has dealt us the card we are unable to explain. No answers. Just feeling. Raw and primal.
I want for each of us to find some little bit of understanding. It sure would bring some comfort.
I haven't been able to go to the cemetery since Mark's burial. He is buried in a cemetery an hour and a half away. Is it strange that going onto find a grave and looking at his marker gives me comfort? It's the only way I've seen it.
I miss Mark!
George- How are you holding up? Have you been able to eat anything? You always seem to be able to sum up how we all feel in a few words. If there is anything that we all feel is we hate this. I want to figure out the whys but the point is simple. We wish our loved one was sitting right next to us. Why death? Why do we have to go through death?
I find it hard to go anywhere either. Since we went everywhere together just shopping for groceries is bad....bed bath and beyond over the weekend started a crying fit in the car which started a crying fit in my neighbors arms when she asked how I was doing.....What a mess this all is.
Nancy & Diane, My husband wasn't much for tv he liked to read but the one show we would watch was House Hunters on hgtv. I cannot watch it. I will never watch it again. That is how this affects us. We cant even watch a tv show.
