You may trod me down in the very dirt, But still, like Dust I'll rise

18. No, I don't mind at all that you shared it calimary.

I hope it helps your friend. We all mourn differently and yes, people need to take all the time to go through the stages.

"We're all struggling with, and trying to come to terms with, the various "accoutrements" of aging. Loss of parents and other elders, loss of spouses, loss of siblings, loss of our own independence, divorce, separation, remarriage, disconnections, triumphs and betrayals, changing health conditions some of us now face, the lot. This particular friend has the blues these days."

So true calimary, our plates are full these days. I wish the best to you and yours~

I thank you for your kind words.
