pg_984949818.jpgYeah, This is why I can still be happy! I am learning to take the happy memories, even the sad ones and turn them into replacements for the grief. Everytime I start to cry or freak out I remember something that I know Jeff said or did, if that doesn't work I find another one. If that does not work ((((FOCUS))))  Trust me, it works.

Thanks, Colleen. I will give that a try. I seem to cry now when I am alone more so than when people are around. Lots of hugs, Jake\'s mom, Kathy

you are very wise. When my dad died it took me three years before I figured out how to focus on the positive things Now it is like second nature I mostly only remember the positive things now and when I start to miss him it is usually when something sad is going on and he is near by. at least that is how I have decided to look at it :)
