“I’ve found the grieving process is not a straight line, it’s variable. You have a sort of numbness to begin with – a terrible grief - then great waves.”

“You have periods when you feel totally normal. It’s almost callous, as if life is just going on without Sara, and then of course it hits you on the back of the neck.”

“I know that we will be together again one day. That much I’m sure of. Sara was everything to me and no one could replace her – I would never want that.”

Callous is not a word that I have ever used, maybe for me because death at the end of the day is a normal part of life. However I so understand what he means. Your mind, your soul, your body….all have to learn to surf that dangerous wave of grief.
