Dear Nathan's Sister, I am so sorry that you had such a terrible experience with this individual at Wal-Mart. When someone we love dies we are left feeling raw and vulnerable. A response such as the one you received is shocking. We have no control over another individuals thoughts or ways of communicating those thoughts. This realization is shocking too! So - what we can do as individuals is take care of ourselves and honor those you loved by doing the work of grief. I wish there was a clear road map for this process, but there is not. What you are doing by writing your thoughts and experiences is one way that many have found helpful. Those on this website will be a great source of support to you as you find your way through this difficult time. Keep writing and talking about how you feel. Peace and blessings to you.

Teny, Sharing your great sadness with others who have experienced something similar is so helpful. Having someone listen to you, validates what you are feeling. You have shared your sadness with all on this forum. That takes great strength and courage. We are listening. Keep sharing what is in your heart. We will be here to support you on your journey through this wilderness. Know that you are not alone and that others do care. Wishing you peace and comfort, Mary Jo M.
