From Yorkiegirl yesterday:
"hear it from me everyone.
If you know someone who has lost someone like I have (or anyone close to them), please speak to them. Believe me, I feel much better when people come over and say hello. Sorry to hear your news etc. So much better than acting as if life is hunky dory. Cos its not and ignoring me makes it worse!"
And this from bubble:
"Marina described the 'having to go through a series of public 'meltdowns.' thing. And it's true. Kind words will do that..but they have to be said. Those words may make you feel worse at that moment in time but they'll also help the whole awful thing to become more 'real.'"
I will never, ever, avoid anyone who has just lost someone. I promise.
