update on my coworker Chris
Hi everyone,
My coworker Chris has come back to work after losing her second brother to a heart anomaly. I wanted to give you an update. She is doing pretty well. She is able to talk, cry & express her grief. She & her mom Jean are going away for the weekend & I will call Jean next week & tell her about DS & FMO. I also have some books that others gave me that were very helpful for themĀ if she & Chris want to read them. Chris reports that her mom is doing fairly well, but of course wonders how she could have"let this happen?"
I know I felt responsible for Eddie's passing in that I couldn't process how I as his mom didn't know he was sick. I blamed myself & reviewed everything I had said & done from the time of his conception to try to make sense of it. But then I realized I will never make sense out of a seemingly healthy 37 year old man just passing in his sleep. I guess for me, in realizing I can't make sense of it, I let go of the blame I was putting on myself. The beginning of some healing anyway.
Love and peace to all. Thank you for your support and prayers for me and this grieving family.
