[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 247851, member: 3353"] For us, every change brought with it the grief we felt at the way things had turned out. We were grieving the little boy we loved, the adolescent we lost, and our shattered family in the present. It has to do with the change process, I think ~ it's like tearing a thing up by the roots so you can transplant it. When you move into another place in your life, you come to really understand how much has been lost, how different things are than you ever envisioned they would be, and it hurts. It will be better, once you are settled, again. Let yourself grieve, so that you can let go of it. It's part of the recovery process, I think. Barbara [/QUOTE]
