We all handle it differently. When Luana drowned in the irrigation ditch, I lost me.
When Mom died, I cried and cried til she came to me and told me I had to let her go, t hat my tears were holding her from the mission she had been given. 3 months later, I cried when my Dad followed her. But he kept in touch more. When Bill died, I missed him, but I knew I wouldn't wish him back for even an instant; his pain was so very bad for the last 10 years of his life. I felt him with me for about a year. Now and then, if I'm sick or in trouble, he is here. And I still cry for my cousin, Emilee Rose. But they're all where they were called, so I'll wait.
