It's been a rough year, as we also lost my dad January 12. I AM coping, it's just hard with all the "anniversary dates". I'm not looking forward to March 26 (my parents' anniversary); April 7 (my dad's birthday) and April 27 (my mom's birthday).

How are you doing?

I have tried to write back to you a hundred times, and each time I feel like I am dumping all of my hurt, sorrow, anger, and utter sadness on you, and you have enough without mine added to it. I'm still lost, and it's been 10 months. Today is Christmas, and I know I'm supposed to be all "cheery, and good tidings", especially for my husband and kids, but Bah Hummbug sounds like a better match. Last night my husband said "You're going to have to learn to deal with the outside world." And all I kept thinking was "I am dealing with it, I just don't know how to live and be happy in it." Sometimes even the thought of my kids going into therapy as adults because their mom went cuckoo after her daddy died isn't enough to get me living. The light that seems to keep me going is helping my mom. Everything I feel, she feels 10 times more. She doesn't know who she is without her husband. I know I still have a future out there, but for her, the future is what she planned with my dad. She asked me "Am I still married?". Logically, of course she isn't still married, but how do you just stop being what you have been for the last 42 years? Enough of me, how are you? I know everthing you were was rapped up in your parents. How are you getting by? How are the kids? Please dump it all on me, as I seem to do it to you. Drop me a line when you get a chance.
