[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 96778, member: 3647"] Thank you all for your kind words. Tink is handling it very well, maybe too well. She was worried that she would not be able to go to the wake or the funeral. And that was a story in itself. Here Matt has THREE exes to decide if to invite, and we all naturally want to pay our respects, but as I told him (and I am sure the other 2 feel the same) it is more important to me that he is comfortable, his mom is comfortable, and let's be honest, I don't want to be uncomfortable either. So I will be bringing Tink to the late half of the wake, and he will take her home with him, and then he will take her to the funeral without me. Back to Tink, she's like "Oh yay, I get to go to the wake, I get to see Papa!" I explained to her that he will be, ya know, dead, and she said "I know, I just want to see him". It almost sounds like she thinks it will be cool to see a body. She also thinks it will be "awesome" to go to the cemetary. This would be way harder for her if she were close to Papa. If it were my dad, she'd be a basket case. Speaking of basket cases, can anyone guess how much I wish I did not have to see his family? I am trying not to go into a panic over this. [/QUOTE]
