Lee's two sisters Louise and Lynda came out today for a GREAT visit. Both have had experience with loosing a loved one. Louise lost Murray her husband and Lynda lost Christine her daughter. Both talked about the grief process and they were incredibly encouraging and helpful. Out in the garage they helped me tackle all of Lee's papers, binders, everything.... It was hard to chuck out a lot of the stuff as we knew it was most important to Lee. But what do you do with it all? We will send books to the CPE students. They will be appreciated there.
I asked them about "when did it sink in?" They explained it's a process and it takes time and we all do it in our own way. I came in the house feeling quite exhausted and that's a word others use around me. I don't think I have ever used that word to describe how I feel. Hard to explain. I feel zapped of energy and it could not be physical. It must be emotional. I'll ride it out and think patient kind thoughts.
