7. A big DU hug for you,

I’m blown away by your honesty and willingness to share. You make all of us more human, more compassionate.

Can’t tell you how sorry I am for your loss and the deep, profound grief that you are swimming in. Very glad you’re getting secular therapy and are able to cry and to express your pain so starkly. Better outward than inward. Also, as someone with a mom who was an alcoholic, I KNOW the strength you have shown to stay out of that trap. Amazing.

Of course I didn’t know your wife, but I can tell you without a doubt she has forgiven you and wishes only for your true peace and true happiness.

You two had something very special and rare.

Be as good to yourself as you can. Let those “therapy dogs” lift you up.

May you be well.
