I’m being a little loose with someone’s privacy here, but I think it’s necessary for people to have some exposure to the forever grief of losing a child.
It’s not just a day. On February 2, I published the post right below, which for today will remain there. Jody’s father sent me this message a couple of days later:
Thank you for Remembering Miss Body’s birthday. I couldn’t bring myself to post a comment. She died on Easter 3 years ago and I still can’t bite the head off a damn chocolate bunny without bawling.
Then, later, he wrote that she was his sunshine. I understand his not being able to post a comment . . . because he loved her so much. And I can also feel him thinking that he just had to . . . because he just loves her so much.
The post Because it’s just not one day appeared first on The Leaning Cow.
