I wish I had words of wisdom or comfort to make it better, but we must go through all of these stages to make our way through. <BR/><BR/>Grief is not a linear process and jumping around through the stages is sometimes the hardest part of it all. We don't know which part is next or what will trigger it to come.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there and know that I am still next to you, walking along this effed up journey (clearly I'm back to anger).
