sadly yes and circumstances surrounding has made attending funeral a bit challenging which has made processing a bit hard
Great question. I lost one of my parents through cancer. There are times I wished they were shot in the alley because at least I'd have someone to be angry at. Alas my faith determines that it was the parts we play as the world is a stage. I cope by playing my part. I speak fondly. I forgive and learned to be content with the lack of answers.
