I am ready to go back to work tomorrow. I need something to focus on, even if I haven't been enjoying it recently.
This weekend was tough. I can't imagine losing a mom and I've never had to help someone through the initial shock. It's jarring and beyond sad. It will drain you and confuse you and have you searching for strength you never needed before. You'll lie awake, unable to turn your brain off for the much needed rest, because you. are. exhausted.
I didn't know her, but I wish I did. She was probably amazing. She has an amazing son. And I know she was so brave.
I pray that her family and friends will come together this week to celebrate her and to offer each other comfort and strength. I hope I can be whatever he needs me to be to help him deal with this.
May peace follow.
