[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 423496, member: 84"] Steely Normal. There was so much commotion around H's death, so many other endless things going on......... With your Dad you were somewhat prepared and ready. No one is truly ready, but you weren't taken by surprise. There was no outside stuff going on to muck up the waters. While it was a sad time, you still were able to spend some good quality time with your Mom and other family members. And lastly.....your relationship with your dad is not the same as the one you had with H. You will probably find times when it will sneak up on you. Like Janet's did typing this post. Also normal. You'll have a good cry, let yourself feel the emotions and then move on again until the next time. With time....that will happen less frequently. Easter I had tears burning in my eyes more than once. Easter is not my holiday. mother in law always made it special for the kids with her egg hunt and big dinner and them getting all dressed up. While we had our egg hunt and dinner I kept thinking of her. I believe she was still there with us. I've lost many people. I've found that like love, the grief is different with each one. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
