Sad, Brando & Callaway Options

[Rhapsedy]

I have been really sad the last couple of days. I have been doing pretty well and then BAM out of nowhere the pain is overwhelming again. I just don't know if I will ever funtion normally again.

Hi Rhapsedy,

Sorry to hear that you've been feeling sad over the last couple of days. It is, however, completely understandable. The grief journey certainly is a rollercoaster of emotions, with ups and downs, then a long steady run, and then -- bam, you come tumbling back down again. In terms of ever feeling "normal" again, I think that's a difficult thing to answer. You will never feel the "normal" you felt when you had your Callaway and Brando. I think over time you sort of develop a new "normal". The loss you've experienced means you will never be the same person again. But I truly believe through surviving it, you've become a stronger, more human person - and you have been blessed with the precious love you shared with your boys, and you will carry that with you always.

You're in my thoughts.
