A loved one died and we buried him today. I was so glad I was not in a lot of pain and was not so exhausted that I couldnt be there or help. I was actually doing ok and was able to go through the whole service, help set up the food and clean after. I did not want his parents to have to deal with that. I am exhausted now. But it was nice to be useful. Especially in a situation like this. I know if it were me who lost a child, I would not want to have to clean up after the people when they left. I also like to stay busy so  I dont cry...

Sorry for your loss.

Thank you. It is amazing how we can muster up some when we need. When i went to bed the night before, I told myself I needed to be in shape for it. So glad I was.
